Up-close with an unguarded Oprah (just don't take her picture)

Oprah Winfrey's decision to leave her daytime talk show -- nearly two years from now -- prompts a return to a 1986 interview in Dallas just a month before the launch of her long-running syndicated smash. She was mostly without her handlers back then, but still very much in charge of what she wanted. See the Back Channels page for an unusual look at the future Queen of Talk.

Also, we have reviews of a new KERA13 special on the Trinity River and the latest anniversary-tied look at the dark day that President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. Plus, check out our content analysis of Friday's 10 p.m. newscasts on arch rivals WFAA8 and CBS11. You also can see how the Cowboys did Sunday in a new Nielsen ratings "snapshot."
