Fox Will Try Out Conservative Host Laura Ingraham

Laura’s voice doesn’t bother me. But I can’t take more than 2 minutes of listening to Susan Estrich. Can you imagine listening to THAT grating voice all day?

[celtic gal]

Megyn Kelly appears to be a happy person who is smart. I like it when she addresses the legal topics. I don’t like it when she gets giddy and silly.

[Stentor]

Helloo Kitty.

Laura is making a mistake here. Fox is Fair and Balanced.

Is this what Laura has become?

She has abandoned her radio show and left us with lightweight pretend conservative Monica Crowley.

Totally irritating. I have not listened since. I am not wasting my ear time listening to a dope like Crowley.

[Spunky]

"........anyone know why"?

Laura has been off her show going on the second week now.

This was posted on her web site yesterday and is gone now. The women filling in for her today said Laura will be back.

"IMPORTANT NOTE TO LAURA LISTENERS
Due to contractual obligations, for the present time I am unable to reveal why I am not currently hosting The Laura Ingraham Show. Rest assured, this absence is not of my choosing, nor is it health or family related. I am ready, willing and eager to continue the conversation we started seven years ago about politics and the culture. (Heck, if cancer couldn't keep me off the airwaves for long, nothing will.)

Keep checking the site for a schedule of my appearances on the Fox News Channel. All queries regarding my on-air status should be directed to Talk Radio Network's management at 541 474 2297 or send an email. Thanks for sticking with me, and...Power to the People!

Tom, go easy on Megyn. Easy, please. We need her. We like to listen to her. We want.....sorry. I gotta get hold of myself. Megyn just got married a few weeks ago. Surperboy wasn’t in the mix. At times they do act somewhat silly, but we still need her...we want her....we must have her on FOX.

I haven't paid much attention to Crowley since she left FNC for MSNBC many years ago. I remember that when she first joined FNC, she was the former intern to Richard Nixon in his final years. Her sister is married to Allan Colmes, but I never thought of her as a pretend conservative. Has she changed?

Pink. What is your point man.

[ConservativeMan55]

lol Megyn isn’t just all brains.

She’s also VERY hot!

[Texas Songwriter]

My brother says “Amen”

[rabidralph]

I love Laura’s voice. Especially that half-cackle laugh.

In another schedule change, the network will expand the 1 p.m. show “The Live Desk with Martha MacCallum” to two hours and add a co-host, Trace Gallagher. Fox has not determined the new role for E.D. Hill, the current 2 p.m. host.

E.D. Hill is leaving another show...

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I miss John Gibson. Was never crazy about Heather Nauert’s Valley Girl speech patterns. John Gibson & Laura Ingraham would be a great team.

I totally agree! John is a real pro...

[OKSooner]

Laura will be good after she learns to not interrupt her guests. I saw her repeatedly interrupt The Toe Sucker in mid-sentence, and when he called her on it after about the third time she laughed and said "lighten up!", like to trivalize it and excuse herself.

If she wants people on the show, she's obligated to let them speak.

I think she might be hard to deal with "in real life"...

[goodnesswins]

Who’s that walking the street in her nightie?

[Miss Didi]

Monica is a regular on The McLaughlin Group. If you can stand Eleanor Clift, tune in. ;)

Megyn Kelly and Douglas Brunt

On March 1, 2008 Mr. Brunt and Ms. Kelly were married in front of 130 friends and relatives at Oheka Castle in Huntington, N.Y., where Kelly Wright, a colleague of Ms. Kelly’s who is also an associate pastor at Open Door Chapel in Virginia Beach, officiated.

The bride, wearing a white Joanna Mastroianni gown, and bridegroom held hands and never stopped smiling into each other’s eyes as an Apache blessing was read.

“It didn’t come down to a moment,” Ms. Kelly said after the wedding. “But everything about the two of us just clicked — our interests, our sense of humor, what we want in life. I just know in my heart that I love the man I’m with, and he loves me.”

That wasn't long. She joined FNC as Megyn Kendall, then got divorced and returned to Kelly, and is now remarried.

Wonder if there’s a way we can get Gibson back. He was one of my favorites.
