Rolling Stone: Maddow Is ‘Most Trusted Name in News’, Maddow Rates Herself ‘Below a C’
Free Beacon ^ | 6/15/2017 | Madeleine Weast

A Rolling Stone interview feature with Rachel Maddow that was published Wednesday touted the MSNBC host as the "most trusted name in news."

"Rachel Maddow: The Rolling Stone Interview," written by Janet Reitman, tells the story of how "America's wonkiest anchor cut through the chaos of the Trump administration and became the most trusted name in news."

The profile discussed Maddow's thoughts on President Donald Trump's administration, the 2016 presidential election, how she views the media, and how she became the "most trusted name in news."

But Maddow, who said she is "a liberal for sure," does not see herself as the captain of the ship when it comes to her MSNBC show.

"Oh, I'm not a captain—I mean, if I was a parent, the children would starve, you know? Like, I can't really deal with hirings and firings and vacations and birthdays and keeping people happy," Maddow said.

Maddow is the one who decides what she covers, however. "From the very beginning, I've had a deal with MSNBC that they don't tell me what to cover, what not to cover, or how to cover what I cover," she said.

The “fake new” Rolling Stone just agreed to pay the fraternity it falsely implicated in the made up rape story $1.6 million. Hopefully other victims of fake news outlets will begin to sue aggressively the purveyors destructive lies.

Definitely a “C”...and also a “B.” Everyone know she’s a “D,” too.

She has a rather high opinion of herself by my standards.

If a tree falls in a forest and Maddow says it was actually a sexist, homophobic, Christian male beating a Muslim then her show can charge 10% more for the ads of Chinese goods importers.
Ka-ching!

Isn’t that the “magazine” where every staffer gets a dime bag placed in their cubicle every morning?

This means so much when it comes from one of the least trusted names in news.

Since Rolling Stoned is a rag only slightly less liberal moonbat than Mother Jones (I think), you judge just what the audience is that trust Madcow the enraged lesbo.
