After nearly six years of bashing Rachael Ray, RRSux.com has decided to shut its virtual doors. The "Rachael Ray Sucks" site was once a very active community with almost 2,000 members and was mentioned in articles in Newsweek, New York Times Magazine, USA Today, New York Daily News, and many others. RRSux.com was also mentioned in Rachael Ray's episode of E! True Hollywood Story, which still airs occasionally on both E! and the Style Network.
First of all, as the former moderator of RRSux, I want to clear the air about why the community is no longer online. Contrary to popular belief, Rachael Ray had nothing to do with my decision to delete "Rachael Ray Sucks." Many things can be said about Rachael Ray, but she has always been a good sport when it comes to her detractors and she never tried to interfere with the site. Some people have accused me of being "paid-off" by Rachael Ray, but that is not the case at all.
I am still not a Rachael Ray fan. I find the woman to be extremely annoying and overexposed, but now I choose to just change the channel. I've become a much happier person now that I no longer dwell on someone who irritates the shit out of me. Life is too short to be so negative and mean-spirited. Besides, in this crappy economy, the last thing on my mind is Rachael Ray.
Thanks to everyone who enjoyed the community.

P.S. - Since this site gets so many visitors, I thought I'd use it for something productive. Namely, informing the public about some of the dangerous products and drugs out there that are hurting and killing people. That's why there are now blog posts about defective drugs like Duragesic, Digitek, Gadolinium, etc. Why not shut Rachael out of your mind for a few minutes and make sure you're not taking a drug that could hurt or kill you?
