  • Loyal viewer Done with it

    I refuse to watch Rachel Maddow shamelessly sell herself and her podcasts on her news show. I’ve watched her program for years. I won’t any more. Enough.

  • Your tax dollars!

    It really bothers me when a journalist refers to government funds as “your tax dollars”. They should be saying “OUR” tax dollars. Unless of course, journalists don’t pay taxes. I like Rachel but I always hear this from her.
