Mini-Rant about MSNBC's Rachel Maddow

Journal Entry: Mon Apr 30, 2012, 6:35 PM
I find it amazing that the people who go to great lengths to scrutinize and complain about TV pundit Bill O'Reilly don't emit a single decibel about Rachel Maddow, simply because they agree with her politics.  Such a waste.  That crazy woman's a goldmine of insanity!

Lesson of the night.  Nitpick everything.  Not just the people you happen to disagree with.  If you can't keep your own ranks in check, they'll be allowed to ascend to levels of idiocy that will, like Bill O'Reilly, make your ideology look like a pompous waste of brain matter.  All self-respecting Americans of the liberal mindset should be ashamed of Ms. Maddow, and should stop putting so much focus on the Fox News outlet and see just how horribly their own bastion of cable news (propaganda posing as faux journalism) is plummeting into the dank recesses of pseudo-political superficiality.

Lookin' at you, Gawker folks.

Huh... well really that's par for the course for any political journalism either side... who takes any of them seriously anyway?

Bill O'Reilly is successful. Maddow isn't. The reason no one brings her up is because well no one actually watches her.

I kinda like her haircut.

Oh God, me too.

It is kinda darned cute. I bet if she dropped the whole politico crap, learned to play bass, and wore vintage 80's sweaters while providing backup lines to Joan Jett, I'd totally fall in love with her.

And this is why I only get my news from good sources with lots of journalistic integrity. The Daily Show and the Colbert Report.

I'll agree that Maddow isn't exactly the best journalist out there, but I don't believe she's in the same league as BillO. BillO has a tendency to rave about things with his prejudices right up front and makes mountains out of molehills. Maddow tends to make a reasoned argument even though she plows through with leading questions and her own slant. I see her trying to find news instead of just using the network talking points. Her show was the only one I saw covering the problems in Michigan, and not just asides about the EFM fiasco.

Remember when journalists used to be objective reporters of the day's events? Yeah....those were the days....

Great post my brother. We may be on opposite ends of the political spectrum, but I agree wholeheartedly with this entire post...
