COMMENT NOW!
Dr. Laura Trading Audiences
As you may have already heard, Dr. Laura Schlessinger is quitting her syndicated radio show after using the N bomb 11 times. Her reasoning?
The reason is, I want to regain my first amendment rights. I want to be able to say what is on my mind and in my heart, and what I think is helpful and useful without somebody getting angry, some special interest group deciding this is the time to silence a voice of dissent and attack affiliates, and attack sponsors. I’m sort of done with that.
I’m not retiring, I’m not quitting…
Dr. Laura announcing her change of venue.
In other words, she’s trading in her old audience for a new one. One more appropriate for her newly refined sensibilities and sensitivities. One that will not try to stop her from speaking her mind. After all, having an audience agree with you no matter what you say is the epitome of popularity. And we would all like to be popular, right?
But what you may not already know is that she is already testing the waters with her new target audience. And I have an exclusive peek at their reaction.

Dr. Laura's test audience.
Uh Oh, only 10 minutes into her speech and already some in her audience on the left are getting angry.
Of course, on her radio show where she dropped the N bomb 11 times, she did have some friendly advice for the caller
If you’re that hypersensitive about color and don’t have a sense of humor, don’t marry out of your race
Fair enough. Which is why my friendly advice to her is; if you’re that hypersensitive about criticism to your racist views and don’t have a sense of humor, don’t speak to anyone outside the Aryan Nation.
