so let's talk about the great american zero, rachel maddow as the host of unfiltered.
big brain isn't cutting it.
i've got a lot of e-mails coming in on this. i don't think i can read them all. i certainly can't reply to every 1.
but i will quote a line or two from some of them.
rhoda: big brain is a big bust. they're going to have to cancel this show if they don't bring lizz back.
marla: do not tell me that this has nothing to do with air america trying to suck up to the democrats senate campaign pac. they are pushing anti-choice candidates. lizz stood strong against that and was discussing that on air. air america couldn't take the heat from weak ass, bitch fucking cowardly democracts so they canned her.
laura: unfiltered is a joke. the show is filtered and now so is the blog. having tried to disappear lizz they now go through and take off posts they don't like. not because of cursing but for advocating for lizz. this show is full of shit.
stevie: rebecca, i listened to unfiltered. i listened to your comments on the show. both made me laugh and both had their points. i was not lizz winstead's biggest fan (though i could take her easier than self important rachel) but i agree with you that the way she was treated is disgusting.
kate: pull the fucking plug on the show already. it is faux npr now just like you said.
zack: rachel is so irritating. she's like your nightmare lab partner that can't shut the fuck up.
sandra: i laughed so hard at the person you quoted who said that rachel gives lesbians a bad name! too true. i didn't bust my ass fighting for my rights to have conventional, boring rachel stamp her ugly mug on my life with her squaresville lifestyle. she's an elitist prig who fancies herself as the next gertrude stein but she's just a gas bag bore that gives lesbians a bad name.
i am an out and proud dyke and if i met rachel i would just point and laugh at her.
albert: i have no sympathy for rachel. she's not just boring, she's a back stabber. in college i got a friend on at the resort i was working at. this rich bitch had a problem with me and complained and complained. i didn't do any thing wrong. she didn't like the way i talked, walked or breathed. i got fired finally. i went to my friend roger and said 'let's go.' he said 'well, i'm making good money in tips and i like the job . . .' that's a traitor and that's rachel maddow.
holly: corporate radio still sucks! unfiltered sucks now more than ever.
greg: you know when all the layoffs at my company started, they stopped that bullshit of 'we are all a part of a family.' and it's the same fucking thing with air america. they have marketed themselves as a family but they eject lizz and they won't even be honest about it.
jeff: they have to be reading your blog. today all the rachel pushers suddenly have hotmail addresses that they've just created that day. i think you're pointing out that they didn't have real addresses got to them. so they all go out and create e-mail addresses and then start posting. the show sucks. they can put idiots all over the blog all they want like the bitch terry who thinks it's okay for democrats to step away from the pro-choice position, it won't matter.
the show sucks and it will suck no matter how many ringers they send to the blog. this whole thing is about to blow up in their faces. the mainstream media is about to notice. when rush and all those jerks notice, you better believe air america is going to look like total soulless sell outs!
omni: guys, rachel is doing a really good job. not! she's a loser and she's boring. pull the plug on this show and make the bitch go bore some 1 else.
elizabeth: i want to correct something. rachel is not smart. she's like diane chambers on cheers trying to act smart. she's a stupid idiot. she needs to pack it in because without lizz sitting beside her she's just another boring talker with an irritating voice. and that voice is irritating, just the tone.
judy: lesbian here, out for 15 years now. and i gotta tell you rachel is working too hard to be 'normal.' she's so 'normal' that she's boring. and if no 1 else wants to go there, i will: she looks like lyndie england. that's not a compliment.
nancy: paint drying on walls has more personality than rachel maddow. she's like robin williams in that movie where he's a robot.
barbara: it's a sleeping pill. you end up nodding off as she yammers away.
adam: she's terry gross without the sparkle, without the talent, and without the ability to listen.
agnes: i gave up on monday. i can't listen to that thurston howell bullshit. some 1 called her lovely howell somewhere. she's not that interesting. she's thurston just boring you. i refuse to be stuck on an island with her so i stopped listening. most of my friends have stopped as well.
larry: she's not pretty, she's not thin, her voice is irritating and she has no fashion sense. so who knew she'd become the diana ross of air america????? chuck d is going to bail on this show. it sucks and he's got to know it.
jayson: lizz was silly but she usually had a point. rachel trying to 'lighten up' is flat out scary!
it's like watching herman munster smile. it's creepy!
sabina: with lizz by her side, rachel did seem smart and warm. without lizz, she's none of those things. dull is the only word.
those are some of the e-mails that i've read so far today. the show is dead. stick a fork in it's ass.
rachel will go back to doing radio out of some upper crust enclave where she can act like she's smart and pretend she knows what she's talking about and every 1 will give her a pass because of her sexuality. if she were straight, she'd be just as boring.
keep the e-mails coming in at sexandpoliticsandscreeds@yahoo.com and i'll try to post some more comments tomorrow.
this isn't the unfiltered blog, we don't censor you for having the basic decency to call them on the bullshit they did to lizz. and as some 1 who's not a fan of lizz winstead i want to repeat that she's been treated like shit and you know it's bad when i'm defending her.
