You think you know someone...

Now, I don’t really like to talk about people behind their backs, however, this actually relates to the media, so I can’t resist.

I’ve never been a huge watcher of 30 Minute Meals on the Food Network, but my sister is. She watches Rachael Ray and refuses to change the channel when I ask because she loves how “real” Rachael is. You could say she has a parasocial relationship because she thinks Rachael is so nice and down to earth.

Unfortunately, a friend of mine told me otherwise. She worked for Rachael Ray’s magazine, so she worked with her a bit. My friend says Ray is full of herself and was very rude to her. We may think we know people on TV, but we really just don’t.
