Name Rachel Maddow's TV Show

Submitted by Fred Gooltz on Wed, 08/20/2008 - 6:43pm.

The name, "The Rachel Maddow Show" is owned by Air America Radio. What should she call her show?

Also, can you pitch a segment or two?

To the first point, here are some quick suggestions:

  • Openly Liberal
  • Talking Liberally
  • Body Politic with Dr. Rachel Maddow
  • Rachel Maddow's Next Deal
  • TeeVee Machine with Rachel Maddow
  • Rachel Maddow's TV Show
  • Reality with Rachel Maddow
  • Openly Rachel Maddow
  • The Fight with Rachel Maddow

As for show segments:

1. "Bobbleheads"

a mix of the Abbreviated Pundit Round Up posts + "Talk Soup" snark + clips from other talking head TV shows

Run through a selection of clips from other political TV shows, pause them and point out the:
intellectual dishonesty
unintended irony
glaring omission
patent absurdity
pie-in-the-sky idiocy

2. "Your Liberal Media"

Point out glaring instances of IOKIYAR-ism on the teevee from DC's Gang of 500, ie. The Villagers.

Clearly I'd like Maddow to not hide the fact that she's a liberal on tv and I think the best way to do that is to show how there are so many hundreds more conservatives surrounding her.

Suggestions?

I think Reality with Rachel Maddow is the best one suggested. Sounds great.

I have to suggest one? Mad Cow Herald. It's an anagram. Or Do Clawed Harm.

Reality Based Commentary I

Reality Based Commentary

I like that a lot. It both references a great moment in political dialogue and reflects the pragmatic values of American progressivism.

Always nice when you can use judo on right-wing spin and turn it on its head, like when the Forward Montana people put out a t-shirt that said: "Guns, God and Gays. Love 'em all."

Reality Based Commentary is

Submitted by Justin Krebs on Fri, 08/22/2008 - 8:23am.

Reality Based Commentary is hilarious -- but it's a great tag-line, I think, more than a title.

I like "Progress with Rachel Maddow" more than the "Retort"

Of course, I'm partial to names like Talking Liberally, but that would only be if it's a heavily talk showy format.
