Rachel Maddow

On Monday night, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow brought on Ryan Grim, Washington Bureau Chief of the liberal Huffington Post, to discuss the fallout following Governor Chris Christie (R-N.J.) and Senator Rand Paul’s (R-Ky.) controversial comments on vaccines. Speaking to Maddow, Grim strangely connected the libertarian Koch brothers to those who oppose vaccines, arguing that “the only kind of overlap here…

The Rachel Maddow Blog never disappoints. On January 22, Maddow producer Steve Benen published a blog that, in typical MSNBC fashion, attempted to portray a Republican politician as a radical racist. This week’s choice: Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee (R).

That MSNBC routinely, almost compulsively, mischaracterizes what conservatives say is nothing new. It's what makes the network so adorable. But in a recent trend, anchor Rachel Maddow has been upping the ante, altering quotes we just heard her play on tape. On Monday night, for example, Rachel ran a news clip from President Reagan's 1983 Martin Luther King Day signing ceremony:

On MSNBC Tuesday night Rachel Maddow described the cover of the latest edition of Charlie Hebdo because,  "NBC News will not allow us to show it to you." A different perspective than Maddow and MSNBC had in 2011 when showing the image of the “Piss Christ” photo by Andres Serrano. "The cover is a cartoon of the prophet Mohammed shedding a tear beneath the words ‘all is forgiven’ he’s also holding…

"We Blame George W. Bush" is a recurring category in James Taranto's "Best of the Web Today" column at the Wall Street Journal.  The meme mocks the penchant of progressives to blame the former president for everything under the sun.   The phenomenon was illustrated in an ugly way on last night's Rachel Maddow Show. Dem Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut blamed the existence of the Charlie Hebdo…

Over the past several years, MSNBC has run a series of “Lean Forward” ads promoting its various liberal hosts’ television shows as well as the network's numerous liberal causes. While many of them have been downright ridiculous such as Al Sharpton’s blueberry pie commercial, the latest one featuring primetime host Rachel Maddow takes a completely different approach. The “Lean Forward” ad begins…

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, Rachel Lauten, Communications Director for Congressman Stephen Fincher (R-Tenn.) wrote on her personal Facebook page that after seeing the Obama daughters’ bored reaction to the annual White House turkey pardon they should “try showing a little class. At least respect the part you play. Act like being in the White House matters to you.” Predictably, the liberal…

Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes are hardly devout Christians, but they shouted out hearty "Amens" to President Obama's deployment of scripture to make his case for executive amnesty.

At the conclusion of her MSNBC show on Thursday night, Rachel Maddow was absolutely beside herself over the fact that Republicans made massive gains in state legislatures across the country and excoriated Democrats for appearing to have no such strategy or interest in winning seats on the state level. Following Tuesday’s midterm elections, Republicans gained a total of 310 seats in states from…

NBC’s Chuck Todd recognized what even the President doesn’t seem to get. That the Republican landslide on Election Day should’ve “put an end” to Barack Obama acting alone on immigration reform via an executive order. 

MSNBC's Rachel Maddow could be a contender for most ridiculous spin of election night with this gem.

Let she who is without geography sin cast the first globe!  On her MSNBC show last night, Rachel Maddow mercilessly mocked Darrell Issa for confusing Guinea with Guyana. The Republican congressman made his mistake during a discussion of the country in which the latest Ebola outbreak began.  Issa said it was "Guyana," a South American country, whereas in fact it was Guinea, a West African one.…

Former CNN talk show host Piers Morgan has penned an “advice column” for CNN at The Hollywood Reporter. Morgan reveals he thought his lead-in Anderson Cooper was “stiff in the studio” and was regularly “annihilated” by Bill O’Reilly and needed to be replaced by Megyn Kelly. Since that didn’t happen, CNN “needs to find more of its own Megyn Kellys.”

Try this quiz on your conservative friends. Which so-called Republican offered a gooey blurb on the cover of the biography of liberal pro-abortion Texas gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis? A certain morning host on MSNBC thinks she has an "inspirational" story to tell.
