Rachael Ray: Media Empire

By JULIETTE ROSSANT Editor's Note: click here to read Super Chef's latest Rachael Ray article. Ahead of this month's launch of her new magazine Every Day With Rachael Ray on October 15 (this Friday) and in light of the the new deal with King World Productions, Oprah Winfrey's powerful Harpo Productions, and the Food Network's owner E. W. Scripps (see press release), superchefblog recommends an excellent article in the Journal News which reviews the fast-growing empire of Rachael Ray. Click here to read the full article. While some top chefs have complained directly to us about our coverage of Ms. Ray based on the argument that she is not a chef, trained or otherwise, superchefblog covers Rachael Ray (and others like her) because her career parallels and overlaps the careers of super chefs and those who aspire to such. Moreover, many super and other chefs have mentioned interest in TV outside of cooking as such the talk show in development for Rachael in Fall 2006. In short, one can learn a lot from the Rachael Ray.
