"The Rachel Papers"

Rachel Maddow has her own show on MSNBC called the Rachel Maddow Show. Rachel is a woman who is respected in accepted by many people even though she is an open lesbian and former activist. Even though our society is moving in a positive direction, it is great but rare that she would have such a big fan base as she does. People agree that Rachel has found a way to be informative, honest, respectful, and at the same time she is showcasing her fun and goofy personality. This is one of the main reasons why people love her and want to tune in to her show on a regular basis. Though many people who watch her show respect her, some people compare her and her rise to fame to Sarah Palin. Though they both might have similar living situations and mannerisms, they both really do not represent the same things. Sarah Palin was very uninformed about what was going on during the last presidential election. On the other hand, Rachel Maddow is very smart and has a way of defending her opinion or what is right without sounding to cocky or wishy washy. Rachel's fame is proof that America is becoming more open minded. Though not everyone is ready for women to be able to do every job men usually do, it is a big step for Rachel to be so accepted in a profession that is usually run by men. Rachel is a very smart women and is perfect for the job that she has. It is about time that there is someone on cable news television that tells it like it is and is able to back up everything she says. If more people were like Rachel, people would be more informed about our country and open to the changes that could help us grow. - Katie Hamilton
