| A Fox News anchor in Cincinnati, Ohio has returned to work after a two-day absence from her nightly newscast and an apology for calling MSNBC host Rachel Maddow an ´angry young man.´ Tricia Macke of WXIX-TV was off the air Sunday and Monday, several days after she issued an apology for referring to the openly gay Maddow as ´such an angry young man´ on her Facebook page. Maddow is an author, liberal commentator and host of the 9 p.m. nightly ´Rachel Maddow Show´ on MSNBC. When a viewer reprimanded Macke for her remarks about Maddow, Macke initially didn´t back down.

Comments: So good not to have TV. Looking at the Maddow photos with the article, if someone asked "Is that a man or a woman?" I´d have to flutter a bit and probably land on "man." And I´d only flutter at all because of the blue-framed glasses.

The only good part of no power for two weeks was not having TV.

This would be funnier if not for the fact that she´ll probably be charged with ´hate speech´. IMO it´s different when other women do it. I call Maddow ´he´ all the time.

The indianapolis fox affiliate is so far up obama´s butt, it´s disgusting. The Patreus kerfuffle is finally worth mentioning but only in the context of the general now being in a video game. Not making this up.

I agree. When I first saw Maddow, I couldn´t tell if Maddow was a male or female. And I´m not Kidding. She dresses like a dude, hair cut like a dude, voice kind of like a dude.
She does it purposely. She dresses herself, cuts her hair that way, etc... She´s a female, pretending to be male. Isn´t that the whole idea of being gay???
She is an angry "not so young" man wannabe.

The Daily Mail has it wrong. She is not a "Fox News" anchor. Fox News is a cable outlet that has no local affiliates. She works for the Fox Broadcasting (free) network. Fox News goes to them for some local news coverage and sometimes provides them an anchor for something like a presidential debate. But no one at Fox News has any authority over a Fox Broadcasting local affiliate.

I don´t mind the fact that Raymond Maddow is a homosexual. I´m more alarmed at how much power these communist heathens wield in the scheme of things. Between sexual preference and skin color, we´re all living in constant fear of hate speech persecution.

In the NBC sit-com "Go On" the lead character Matthew Perry is always being mistaken for Rachel Maddow. On Saturday Night Live they did a "Hardball" skit where Chris Matthews keeps calling Maddow "Kyle MacLachlan". If NBC can compare it to a man than it´s fair game.

Tricia Macke is a local darling in Cincinnati and has been a staple here for years. She is down to earth. I ran into her at a local Noodles restaurant once and was impressed that she breaks bread with the common folk...something Rick Maddow would never do.

Maddow has assumed the physical appearance of a man, apparently wanting to be associated as masculine, but when called a man is deeply offended. How truly insane.

When is Maddow going to apologize for impersonating a decent respected human being? It´s difficult picturing any decent parents raising an impersonator like Maddow.
Hey maybe we need an investigation of Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews? /s

The Metropolitan Police has defended the way it responded to reports of the killing in Woolwich, south London, after questions were raised about how long it took officers to reach the scene. The force said police were there within nine minutes of the first emergency call and firearms officers were at the scene five minutes after that. Mayor Boris Johnson was heckled when he visited the area. BBC London´s Home Affairs Correspondent Guy Smith spoke with Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley, former Metropolitan Police Commander John O´Connor and Roger Gray, a former firearms officer.

HANAHAN--The U.S. Naval Brig is once again being mentioned as a leading alternative to put terror detainees on trial after President Barack Obama this week rekindled his push to shut down the terror-suspect holding site at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. “I once again call on Congress to lift the restrictions on detainee transfers from Gitmo,” he said. “I have asked the Department of Defense to designate a site in the United States where we can hold military commissions.” Speculation immediately re-focused on the brig at Charleston as a leading choice where some of the 166 detainees could go on trial.

Proudly marching through the streets of York with cheers ringing in their ears, the men and women of 2nd Signal Regiment--recently returned from Afghanistan--were greeted by thousands of people lining the streets to welcome them home. In the hours after the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby by alleged Islamist terrorists in Woolwich, south-east London, on Wednesday, the Ministry of Defence had advised servicemen and women not to go out in uniform--an order that was promptly ignored by soldiers who refused to be cowed and almost immediately rescinded. 300 members of the Armed Forces were cheered by well-wishers who waved

People taking statins face an increased risk of developing diabetes, warn researchers. They found a 10 percent extra risk linked to taking simvastatin--the most commonly prescribed anti-cholesterol drug--which rose to 22 percent for those taking atorvastatin. Previous research into a suspected link with statins found a 9 percent rise in the chance of patients developing diabetes, but the new study looked at specific brands of drug. [Snip] Researchers identified 471,250 patients with no history of diabetes and who were newly treated with a statin, just over half were women and all were at least 66 years old. Statin therapy

The September 11 attacks on America was by no means the first act of terrorism carried out in the name of Islam. The 1993 World Trade Center bombings killed six, while the 1998 US embassy bombings of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya, left 223 people dead. However, the scale, horror and repercussions of 9/11--2,996 people dead, the World Trade Center destroyed and the Pentagon attacked--set it apart as a seminal moment that changed the course of history.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Eva Longoria is backing up her beauty with a whole lot of brain. The actress graduated with a master´s degree Wednesday. Longoria, 38, took home a real degree (not an honorary one) in Chicano studies from Cal State Northridge, where she physically attended classes for three years, according to TMZ. "Big day today!!! Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

What´s so interesting about 60 tea partiers protesting the IRS in San Jose, California on Tuesday, May 21st? The fact that this bit of information was conveyed to the protesters by a Department of Homeland Security officer who was also in attendance. What was a DHS agent doing at the San Jose Tea Party protest? (snip) they weren´t just spying on us in San Jose and monitoring us in San Francisco, they were watching us throughout the entire state

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.
