Out of anybody that can be considered a lolcow or person of interest here, this is a marginally more successful story. Her website lists her as a writer, an actress, and a video blogger. This is Franchesca Ramsey.
Arguably her biggest achievement is when she got a spot on the now-defunct Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore as a correspondent in a segment of the show called "#HashItOut" where she'd talk about internet stuff basically.
But why could Franchesca be a lolcow if she's made it onto TV? There are three big things I'll cover.
1) Twitter slapfights and drama
2) Her SJW viewpoints
3) TV Ratings flopping, promptly losing her job shortly after gaining it
One of her biggest beefs is with youtuber Sargon of Akkad (aka Carl Benjamin) He has gained notoriety over the years for his anti-feminist and anti-SJW stances. Regardless of the merit of any of Mr. Benjamin's positions though, Chesca immediately jumped into action to shut him down.
It's to the point that even Huffington Post ran a column taking Benjamin's side.

Here's the original Tweets where she tries to take away his Patreon in an attempt to shut him up and claiming that Sargon perpetuates "hate speech" and "bigotry" on his channel:

In this blog she and a few others whine about the existence of another youtube pundit and lolcow, Paul Joseph Watson

And she still responds in this way to critics and trolls

Below I capped some twitter stuff:
And now into the meat of her content, the MTV Decoded videos on youtube
(Explaining that Political Correctness isn't anti-Free Speech
(I can't even explain this one at all)
(Thread about the concept she's defending can be found: here)
