Company shares rose again — by about 20% at midday trading — on Wednesday after an emotional ad about Oprah’s struggle to lose weight aired on Christmas Eve, and has continued to run on national television this week. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/oprah-blessed-these-7-brands-before-weight-watchers-2015-10-19
