The Rachel Maddow Show

I know back in the day when I listened to Air America that Rachel Maddow was something special. She impressed me then as someone who had a keen grasp of what was happening and could translate it into terms that anyone could understand.

I believe that it is not only her impressive academic credentials that contribute to this, but a serious work ethic that causes her to do copious research on a subject.

This was evident as I watched her tonight. She knew her stuff! She is a charming personality that makes the news worth watching. The mainstream media on every evening during dinner can learn a lot from her.

So, skip Charlie and Brian and Katie, and get you news from Rachel. You will be a better informed American.

"The Rachel Maddow Show" is no "Democracy Now!" - there are things that which Rachel Maddow resists discussing - but it's infinitely better than anything on Fox News (aka Fox Noise and Faux News). Maddow clearly does research in her reporting. The criticism of the show is usually either that it's a partisan show, or emphasizes Rachel Maddow's lesbianism and physical appearance. This is not an argument, but rather an ad hominem attack. Even if it's a partisan show, Maddow DOES interview people with opposing viewpoints, namely Pat Buchanan (the surprise is that ultra-bigot Buchanan is willing to be in the same room as a liberal Jewish lesbian). But most importantly, TRMS is an intellectual show: it includes segments about scientific topics, including environmental issues. I consider it a good show.

The Rachel Maddow show is excellent. When she's there! Which isn't very often I honestly don't think a week goes by that she's nowhere to be found for at least part of that week. As of this writing, she's been gone for an entire week and that's in addition to multiple days she's been MIA during the last several months.

Hopefully, her health is good and that's not the reason that she now works part-time. What's ironic is that her mentor and benefactor, Keith Olbermann (whom she promptly forgot she knew once she had her own show and he was let go by NBC) pulled the same nonsense. There one day, gone two...there a full week, gone the next week.

What is it about Phil Griffin that he allows such liberties to be taken by these multi-million dollar part-timers? Maybe he's not there either and doesn't know that he's got hosts who consider it a right and not a privilege to be handsomely paid for so very little air time!

It's such a bad show and what makes it worse is she tries to be funny she's not funny she's terrible she's terrible the pain you feel watching this woman on television is worse than stepping on the LEGO she makes my skin crawl she's just a horrible horrible human being and the fact that left lunatics pretended to funny show because they can't stand to admit that it's a terrible show is really sad it's a so bad it tries to be funny it tries to me witty but it's terrible it really is terrible I wonder why the show doesn't exist anymore she's got the charisma of a door knob seriously the only person worse than her joy read.

Total propaganda. If it were not for Trump she and that horrible network would all be unemployed. Her obsession with constantly discussing Trump is such a bore. I am not even a Trump fan. But there could be a war going on and all she would report on is Trump. Lame. I wonder if she is intelligent at all as she appears to be simply mouth piece for the far left. I have watched in and off over the years and honestly The Maddie show has gotten to the point that it appears to be obsession with the former president .I do not believe there is any news or discussion of need on her show at all. If you disagree with her she goes crazy. If you are a sychofant and pay homage she will interview you for hours. Horrible.
