Anderson Cooper might have come out in 2012, but Rachel Maddow still has more power in the gay and lesbian world. ​

Out magazine has their Top Power List for 2013 and while Apple's Tim Cook is still No. 1, MSNBC Rachel Maddow comes in at No. 4 on the list.​

Out writes now king of the mountain at MSNBC, Maddow gave Fox News a run for its money during the 2012 election cycle and was nominated for an Emmy this past December, all while holding on to her loyal viewership and delivering hard-hitting criticism of the political climate. The host has become a staple in the political media by standing up for the marginalized, sticking to her core values, and making a few cocktails, all with that lopsided smirk of hers.

Anderson Cooper comes in at No. 5. ​
