The right woman, at the right time - and exactly what this country needs in this era of Faux News fluffers.

While they no doubt mean well, these fence-sitters at CNN are almost as much part of the problem as the mouthpieces at Faux.

Their attitude (with some exceptions) helps give their viewers the impression that these are "normal" times when they're really anything but - exactly what grifters like Cheeto count on most.

Most of us never get our voices heard in the least. These people on cable news, on the other hand, can do so much to change the course of events - if they'd just rise to the occasion.

Like Rachel, Chris, and Lawrence O'Donnell do.

I think most republicans do a very good job at talking over the host.. never letting them get aword in edgewise.
and its so freaking obvious.

I don't think there's a harder working person on any network or cable news show.

Not meaning to be sexist here, but she is pretty easy on the eyes as well, and her knowledge of the subjects she discusses is second to none.

Good on 'ya, Rachel!

Rachel is doing real journalism, and putting the corporate pretty-hair fluffers to shame.

Only recently begun to watch, now hooked. I see her program as a matrix, connecting the disparate dots, disguised as a story. Excellent job.
