Please let it be Dr. Laura. By the way, for all her prattling on about family values, her mother was murdered in her apartment where she remained dead for many days before anyone found her. She had been estranged from the homophobe for years. Way to honor your 77 year old parent, Miss Gays are Bad and Ambitious Mothers are Worse.
I work in the radio biz, and while I have absolutely no inside scoop on this, my money is on Dr. Laura. She's one of the few we would consider A-list. And her ratings have been dropping off in recent years. I have worked with and met some total douchebags in my day, and I can tell you in all honesty, that Dr. Laura was NOT one of them. I completely expected her to be a total asshole diva when she did a market visit. I psyched myself up for weeks, preparing for a day from hell. She was the most low-maintenance national "talent" I've ever worked with (the only special request she made was that I tell her the location of the best bead shop in town.) She went over her alotted time at a client gathering so she could make sure to meet everyone, and then she even placed a personal phone call to me the next day to thank me for everything. As much as you may dislike her views, opinions or delivery on the radio, in person I can assure you she's a class act.
Without a doubt "Dr." Laura. She's an infamously disagreeable bitch. Rosie may have caught her on a good day, but I've got tons of stories from persons who've worked with her or associated with her and what a royal, hypocritical, PITA she is. Including folks in the radio biz who talked about how she'd bring her kid into the station with her when he was little and let him run riot while she did her show. And a Jewish women's group in Dallas was absolutely appalled at what a demanding bitch she was when she made an appearance for them. When they wrote about it, she had an on-air meltdown. So many people have had ugly run-ins with her. A guy who owned a surf shop was harassed unmercifully by DL and her rabid fans after she decided some of his t-shirts were 'pornographic'.
When I used to drive alot to work I would end up listening to her program, this was pre-2000. I used it as background noise and she was no worse then than anyone else. I was surprised at her bio - she's a hypocrite to start and the fact she's no longer orthodox says some other unpleasant things. Haven't heard her since 1999. Don't think I am missing anything and from the buzz I hear... this is her.
While it still could very well be Dr. Laura, did you notice how the blind is written. It doesn't say exactly that her flagship is in the 2nd largest market, it says she is getting dropped by her flagship AND the second biggest market. So it could be any major female radio host who is syndicated into the LA marketplace.
Dr Laura, who cheated with a married man with 3 children, and he left his family for her.
Dr Laura, whose son is in the military, had photos up on his myspace about his drug use and sadistic things he wanted to do to Iraqi's if he was alone with them, he is one twisted puppy. He needs professional help after being raised by whatever "it" is. Horrible woman.
Dr Laura lives in Santa Barbara, and broadcasts from there each day, unless she is ont he road.
She used to write a column for the local SB paper and then quit- and the paper that she worked for owns a AM station that broadcasts her...
I agree she is hard to take sometimes..but I personally love her advice, now that I am a married mother of a 6 yr old.
She takes part in the Santa Barbara yacht club activites- she races boats every wednesday- her boat almost always comes in in the top 3. She rides a 3 wheeled harley around town- and plays pool at the local pool hall.
My second biggest complaint about Dr. Laura was a quote I read from her -- to paraphrase, "any 40-something woman should hang on to her husband no matter what, because at that age she isn't going to find another."
Laura Ingraham?
ReplyDeleteOo, captivagirl, that would be awesome.
ReplyDeleteWendy Williams? Would NY be the second-biggest market in the country?
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Wendy Williams since she has been having fights wtih her station and her talk show is taking off.
ReplyDeleteLA is the second biggest radio market in the country.
ReplyDeleteI they he is talking about Dr. Laura. LA is the 2nd biggest market behind NY.
ReplyDeleteIf it is Dr. Laura, YAYYYYYY I hate that homophobic old dragon
ReplyDeletei soooo want it to be laura ingraham.
ReplyDeleteI think knowing WHY she's being dropped may be more interesting....
ReplyDeleteDr Laura used to be big in Philly, but she was replaced by Glenn Beck when 9/11 happened.
ReplyDeletePhilly dropped Laura Ingraham too. She is based in Washington DC though so I don't think it's her. Sorry to disappoint you! :-)
ReplyDeleteI know it said "host" and not "DJ" but just to throw something different out there...what about Delilah?
ReplyDeleteI hope with all my heart it's that psycho bitch Dr. Laura, although she seems to fit in perfectly at KFI (her home station).
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I never thought of her. I find her show boring so I never listen.
ReplyDeleteDelilah broadcasts from Washington and isn't even carried in L.A. Has to be Dr. Laura.

ReplyDeleteI HATE Dr. Laura with a passion. I hope it's her and she crawls back into the hole she came out of.
ReplyDeleteI loved the West Wing episode that had a Dr. Laura type get ripped by the pres.
I love Laura Ingraham. I hope it's not her.
ReplyDeleteThey will never get rid of Delilah, her ratings are money.

ReplyDeleteMy initial thoughts were Dr. Laura, too.
ReplyDeleteyou can still be a narrowminded bitch with a smile on your face.
ReplyDeletethat's all i'm saying.
HAHAHA to jax.
ReplyDeleteita delilah is golden and solid. don't think anyone is getting rid of her anytime soon. *jumps on dr. laura train*
ReplyDeleteI gotcha Jax :-)
ReplyDeleteI hate to ask, but who is this Delilah person? Does anyone know if she is played in the San Francisco Bay Area?
ReplyDeleteI've heard of Dr. Laura. So, my bet is on her.
I hope hope hope hope it's Dr. Laura, god I hate her narrow-minded rhetoric.

ReplyDeleteGood riddance to bad rubbish.
Sounds like Dr. Laura...
ReplyDeleteThe only other person I can think of is Randi Rhodes, who is no way A List...
Ah, and Rachel. But everyone loves Rachel. I love her more then Ellen, three times over.
ReplyDeletePlease let it be Dr. Laura.
ReplyDeleteThat would be way beyond awesome.

ReplyDeleteDr. Laura is still around? I thought she left the air waves years ago. I hope it's her. Her stupidity needs to be silenced.

It doesn't say exactly that her flagship is in the 2nd largest market, it says she is getting dropped by her flagship AND the second biggest market.

ReplyDeleteStill, Dr. Laura seems a likeyl suspect.
Oh please let it be "Doctor" Laura. Then her TV twin sister Ann Coulter can follow right after her, if there is any justice in the world.
ReplyDeleteOT I just heard that Morgan Freeman had a 10 year affair with his stepdaughter who is now 27 which means he was screwing her at 17.
ReplyDeleteAccording to DListed he and his second wife raised the daughter of his first wife.
I am so sad and disappointed in Morgan. He was one of the few in Hollywood that still had my respect.
i saw that nomd - i just... i am speachless. I also had him pegged for a good guy.

Ugh, whenever I channel-surf past Delilah I get a bit nauseated. Not my cup of tea!
