@Menstruaor,

Why do you always think that this website must cater to what you want to see and read and no one else’s needs, wants or views matter?

I enjoy Ali’s writing style and sense of humor. I think that she is one of the better writers on this site and I look forward to her blogging also in the future. I just hope that she keeps up the Rachel Watch also. I am unable to catch her show most nights and I think Ali is doing a bang up job.

There is more than one GLBT news site out there, don’t expect this one to deleiver you everything you want. Besides it is free! Let the attackes begin…

Um, Menstruaor – the title of the column in always “RachelWatch” so OBVIOUSLY it is a recap of THAT SHOW – so that is what any intelligent reader would expect to actually READ – the other topics are covered elsewhere Einstein. The recaps are great as well!

I love RM and view Ali’s this post every day. I agree with Robert. Don’t read it if you’re not interested.

Comcast here in Alabama doesn’t carry msnbc (we do get the Faux News Network though) so I, for one, am grateful for the re-cap and he video clips. Keep up the good work!

@Robin Said. I like her two cents. Thanks for playing.

If Ms Davis’s job is to just recap what Ms Maddow’s show was, then all she needs are the clips, she doesn’t need to add her two cents, but she does have the right to comment. Sen Sessions’ job is to not throw soft ball questions like the democrats are doing. While they are concentrating on the firefighters case, they are bringing up other cases of hers, apparently Ms Maddow and Ms Davis were busy when Sen Grassley had his turn at questioning. BTW,, no senators, dem or republican were mean to her. Even tho she’ll be sumpreme court justice no matter what,, this committee still has the responsibility to ask the hard, tough questions, if for no other reason than to have the illusion of due process.

If not for the recaps, I wouldn’t have known about Rachel Maddow since I don’t watch cable TV often. And I do enjoy Ali Davis’s recaps because of how she segments it.

I’m grateful for this recap of the Maddow show myself. I can’t watch it on TV (too much competition from the roommates), so I’m glad to be able to sign on each morning and get the recap. I love the way Rachel does news…

So, to each their own. It’s sort of like, if you don’t like a program, change the channel or turn the tv off…

Hey Menstruator,

We are asking Ali to write about Rachel Maddow daily. I know you don’t like it – so please don’t read it.

Happily, though, Ali will also be joining us as a blogger, so you will indeed be able to get her take on other issues as well.

Dear miss davis.
Can this end yet? Are you done with your crush or your tribute or whatever this is?
Where’s a story on the trans person in NJ that died in a voodoo ritual? Or the Texas mayor that apologized for the raid on a gay bar?
Can you commit yourself to real news as it happens or only last night’s review of the news?
I’m not sure what’s worse that you keep writing this slop, or that 365 and the trashy no depth or squalor AE lets your put this “writing” online.
Are you looking for a Rachel Maddow shout out? Is that it? Or do you just enjoy reporting about what others are reporting?
