Her popularity was huge with the public, but the media hated her. I distinctly recall NYT and NPR hate articles written about her then famously apolitical persona and supposed Black appropriation.

Especially when this is supposed to be an "elite research board". If we can't get simple stuff like this correct, how is anyone supposed to trust any of the research found here?
I'm curious to know how much research you put into this, and what methods you used.
It's just such a pointless thing to damage our reputation for. Seriously, what is the point here?
