3. Rachel's probably my favorite TV commentator but why is she on so many shows latelY?

Letterman, Howard Stern, Meet the Press. Probably a few others I don't know about. Why is she so active all of a sudden?

She wrote a book and she's trying to peddle it.

God bless her. If we had to put up with Chris Matthews pimping his stupid Kennedy book on every TV network, radio talk show and street corner in America, we can sure as hell give Rachel a few minutes to sell a book that actually has a point.

what she discloses about a certain pictorial. Since i just
got a frantic phone cal from a friend that heard it, consider
it hearsay until someone else confirms it. Anyone?

after listening to the show (I never listen to HS) from start to finish.
Instead I want to apologize for any implied suggestion regarding a
pictorial. The "friend" that called me is totally without credability.
Rachael was charming and brilliant as usual. My apologies.

8. So who's going to be the first to throw her under the bus?

For going on the show and being in the presence of that mysogynistic women hating man?

10. Howard has been on a tear for months in favor of gay marriage

He is very progressive in his views and adores his wife, his mother, and his 30 year co-star Robin. If anything, Howard isn't crazy about men but I don't see anything misogynistic in his views and I've been listening to him since 1987.

to hear the entire interview. Howard did an amazing job. I know there's tons of "haters" out there for Stern but he is a great interviewer. He really adores Rachel and her show.
