Yes that is just what I mean to tell you.
You are likely near point on all that you say - EXCEPT - it is true that Oprah was made to wait even more than the seven years you counted - she had BEGGED ROSS for years to go on her show.
Ross was fearful of open mike questions - and finally Oprah and the shows producers went with her request to take only questions that guest had written on cards, that Ross could chose herself - that first interview was carefully scripted - as this one has been as well.
The beauty of Ross, is she has the talent to make it appear natural, and effortless.
And you are likely right about Oprah not liking Mary Wilson or her books. But to each his own.
