No leaks, 'eh?

Sweet!

Claude Taylor is one of my Twitter faves.

He’s always an interesting read, and he seems to have some really terrific sources.

Took me a moment...

WOW! Gotta keep this one for later study.

GREAT work, RandomAccess.

Connect the dots.

I laughed out loud! REALLY loud!

OMG...

It's okay, kitty...

Well, that was then. Now, I notice, the only concession she's made to on-camera appearance is

in the eye makeup. She's never tarted up. But I think they give her false eyelashes and/or extra mascara or something. I find it rather pretty - especially in its simplicity, since it's so clear that she uses minimal makeup for camera. No facial contouring, no loudly colored or heavy lipstick, no precision lip-liner or highlighter or dark eye shadow or eyeliner or any of that other stuff. She's naturally attractive so she really doesn't need it. But I have to admit - I do like the eyelashes!

Compare Rachel's nightly on-camera makeup to any photo of Hope Hicks, for example. I rest my case.

Same here. She connects the dots like nobody else in the business.

I feel like watching her show is the same as attending a master class. Graduate level. I always learn things. Especially context and background.

I think she's wonderful! Her show isn't just any old news hour. It's a public service.

You sure do speak for me, David!

You ROCK, David! Keep it up!

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
