Kathy Cox wins big on game show

Georgia's state school superintendent Kathy Cox became the first contestant to win one million dollars on Fox TV's popular game show, "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?" The show is hosted by Georgian Jeff Foxworthy. Cox's million dollar question was "who was the longest reigning British monarch?" Her correct answer of Queen Victoria, earned her the money. Cox says she will donate the money to 3 schools for the deaf and blind in Georgia. Cox appeared nervous at times but was able to get all the correct answers. She said she knew the answer to the million dollar question, because her parents had taken her to England. One lawmaker, Rob Teilhet (D-Smyrna) was critical of her appearance on the show saying Cox should focus on Georgia's schools rather than play TV game shows. Teilhet purchased an ad on an Atlanta TV station that ran before Cox's appearance on the show.
