She still that prosecutor trying to win her case. I've read she won hands down 100% of her cases, she must have been hell in the courtroom. The poll is not looking favorably though.

I don't consider her a serious reporter, didn't know anybody did to be honest. But I'll admit I find her righteous indignation entertaining.

I can take her in small doses. I do find that she repeats the same thing over and over and over. I would rather watch Nancy than Joy Behar

I liked her better long ago on Court T.V.
It saddens me how her show is somewhat like a tabloid, lousy pics and all.
She can do better than that IMO.

I do believe she really cares though.
She recently had surgery and I wish her all the best.

I think her show looks cheap by having people on skype. Also she is too dramatic and I find it hard to take her seriously.

I watch her periodically, depending on whether I find what she's covering at the time interesting. More enjoyed her previous days on Court TV. Love her sarcastic wit...thought it a little out of line when she asked the brother of the Peru murder victim Stephany to comment on his sisters missing eye, to which the brother politely declined. Haven't heard any more about that little tidbit since.
can't STAND nancy grace. ain't nobody in the WORRRRLLD knows how to beat a dead horse more than that woman. i mean, i think her heart is in the right place, but somebody farts and its ten episodes of "who do you think you are? Huh? with your FARTING?????" i mean she doesn't shut up and comes across as bombastic. now, rachel madow, there would be a crime reporter!!!!

Nancy Grace is one of my favorite programs on television.

My opinion on Nancy Grace is that she has excellent journalistic and legal expertise, and she is delivering to the public the kind of show the management of HLN wants delivered.

For her to be able to have that show in a city with almost 10 million people, that have the BEST of the BEST, she has to be top notch. .........or be recommended by the President.

Reading each one of these comments, the main focus seems to be her RUDENESS. Have you ever met a Prosecutor that is not rude?
I think we, ladies, should be grateful that we have a voice in Nancy Grace, who has been publicizing the fact that there is a War Against Women, in this country.

We need someone like this that can bring to focus what is happening to our children. Before Nancy Grace, everything that happened to women and children was kept closeted. Now, it is in the open, for the country to deal with it.

We, as a society, need more programs like this one.

And for those people who do not care for her program................you can always change the channel.
Yes, actually, I have ... lots of them. I started my career in a DA's office just out of law school. I have never thought of myself as "rude" and I've worked with some very nice folks. A good prosecutor never has to resort to rudeness. An effective, skilled use of facts and evidence will carry the case on its own.

Consider the target audience. I don't like the format---panel of experts. So I don't tune in.
