This is the first time ever that Oprah hasn’t made the list, since it began in 1999. She’s the only person who’d made it every single year.
The end of her show and the struggles of the Oprah Winfrey Network have definitely taken their toll on her level of influence. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are both making their sixth appearances on the list.
