Laura Ingraham Already Terrifying Fox News Staffers—and Her Show Hasn’t Even Aired Yet
Daily Beast/ Newsweek ^ | 10/20/2017

When conservative author and talk radio host Laura Ingraham sits down in the anchor chair on Oct. 30 for the first time as a host on Fox News’ evening lineup, the cable network will be making a multi-prong bet. The first is that its audience will gladly stomach another evening hour of ardent Donald Trump boosterism.

Already, there are signs of trouble. A number of Fox staffers are dreading the possibility of working for Ingraham, who, even among the healthy egos that populate America’s cable newsrooms, has built a reputation as overbearing. According to numerous sources, Ingraham has been,

Laura is not on board the Cheap Labor Express.

Most of Fox News is, that’s the problem.

This means obviously she is successful, that she doesn’t go with the Fox libRINO flow, and that she will kill it in the ratings.

Always enjoyed her commentary, but would not be surprised if it’s true that she’s not very nice behind the scenes.

I noticed a change in her on-air demeanor/persona, after her radio show “took off” around 2004 or so, and subscribers started to boost her income significantly.

Few remember that once Beck left Fox, Laura briefly got a 5pm show on Fox. It was awful. She started each show with what was supposed to be humorous observations on the day’s used. They weren’t very funny at all. And her stiff personality didn’t help.

I think she’s matured a bit and will be successful with the new show.

Personally I expect Laura to have a hugely successful show on Fox. For me it will be Must Watch TV.

Laura had a show way back I think on MSNBC or something. It was a good show, but it was on before noon during the week and no one watched it because of its time slot.

“Overbearing” = “pushy.” How sexist of this article-um-er-propaganda piece.

Laura is already rich from her radio show and her online magazine, so I think she has a lot in common with Trump.

She is doing this for the good of the country not to climb the celebrity ladder like me-again Kelly

Notice this hit piece makes it through three quarters of the article with unsourced attacks on Laura’s character, then finishes up with a few named proponents. Crap writing.

if Laura was a man, would they have written this using the word “overbearing”.

If she’s rich, then why did she have trouble paying her bills earlier this year?

According to numerous sources, Ingraham has been, occasionally, a verbally abusive boss, who will not hesitate to scream at employees if something goes awry. Two former employees of her radio show recounted to The Daily Beast separate instances of Ingraham hurling objects at staff members in displeasure.
