Rachel Maddow says she misses Keith Olbermann - calls Fox News a McCarthyite chamber of horrors

Wow! She is quite the douche bag.

Nervous executives brought in racks of women's clothing to give Maddow a more feminine look (she often jokes that "I look like a dude"). When Maddow started subbing for Olbermann in 2008, she hired his agent and pushed for a show. Her program averaged 953,000 viewers last year, about 85,000 behind Olbermann. That put her ahead of CNN but well behind Sean Hannity's 2.3 million on Fox News.

She says Glenn Beck "running baroque conspiracies that are designed to freak people out about bogeymen coming to get them, conspiracies that are unsupported by the facts."
Fox, she charges, has "become a McCarthyite chamber of horrors… "

Producer Bill Wolff tells her she dresses up for the show meaning the $19 black blazer, black blouse, and black pants she sports to avoid highlighting her "giant neck."
