Weight Watchers Investor --- ## Transcript >> First thing I wanna ask you is, about the new internet rumor about Oprah rigging the contest. I'm sure you've heard about? >> I-- I have heard about all that. One thing that I-- I-- Someone told me it was the number one searched thing on Google and I just think that that's probably-- I couldn't see any reason why Oprah would do that. You know? She's probably too busy like helping children and building schools and stuff. But it's just crazy the way rumors spread on the internet. >> Yeah. Exactly. >> And you know, I'm really grateful to all my supporters for that, but I doubt that Oprah is against me. It just doesn't make any sense. >> Well, right now, you're currently in the lead with I think over 6 million votes? How does that feel? >> Yeah. I think-- I think I'm actually eligible to debate in presidential debate now. So, I'm really excited about that. I've got to get all my policies straightened out, but it just feels great. It's amazing the amount of support that I've got and then, so proud, almost everybody has been really positive and it's just-- It's overwhelming. You know, I'm trying to figure out a way that I can-- can give back just a fraction of what-- what all these people have given me, you know. >> So you call yourself the wheelchair- bound lady fan? Tell me, are you in this just for the chicks? >> I-- I started out 93 percent for the chicks, but then I realized that there was just so much support and so much love actually that I-- I just really wanna make this show and I wanna make the best show possible and have it be the most inspiring and fun thing that we can make, you know, and then you know, if there are any girls that are interested, which I doubt, then I'm-- I'm very happy to meet them. >> Great. I'm sure they would be really excited to meet you, too. You're pretty well- known. >> I didn't even have friends before. >> But seriously, why do you think-- What do you think it is that people are responding so positively to you? >> I think that maybe I've opened some eyes and like I changed their minds about how-- how do you people who have disabilities and kinda just-- It's mostly about the jokes. You can-- You can get people behind your cause a lot easier if you're-- if you're lighter about it, you know. If you-- you have the sense of humor about it. >> Okay. So I really just only have one more question for you right now. What are you gonna do if you don't win? >> If I don't win, no matter what, we're going to make this show because just- yeah, our point of support that you know, we proceed, if I have to make it with $ 5 you know, in a little red wagon I'll-- I'll do that. So, I just want everybody to know that no matter what happens, you know, stay positive and we're gonna make the most kicked ass travel show there has ever been. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"'You OWN Show' contestant Zach Anner on Oprah's Vote Rigging","description":"NewsFeed chats with Zach Anner, a top contender for \"Your OWN Show,\" a contest to host a program on Oprah Winfrey's new cable network","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/QZNusS8i/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2010-06-24T15:02:28.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/QZNusS8i.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/QZNusS8i/","duration":"PT3M35S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/QZNusS8i/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
