So this is fishy.
WMALs Mary Katharine Ham has dropped off the airwaves. According to a letter she posted on her personal blog dated today, shes elated not to have to wake up so obscenely early. She delicately explains why she and the station are parting ways:
If youre a regular listener, you may have noticed I wasnt on the radio this morning on 105.9 FM WMAL, where Im wont to be from 5-9 a.m. Alas, I wont be there anymore, which means I didnt have to get up at 3 a.m. today (Yay!), but also that I will miss the WMAL crew and my buddies Bryan and Brian who will carry on the morning show without me.
The folks at the company had a vision for a different, independent role for me at the station, but we just werent able to come to an agreement that would make it work, so Im off to do my other jobs. Im constantly thankful I have the freedom to make decisions like that, and realize its a tremendous blessing to have such options.
Ham will be on a plethora of Fox News programs this week including on The OReilly Factor tonight as well as Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld.
Meh.
She was a great analyst, but not radio material. She flubbed her lines a lot and was awful in the machinations of carrying a radio show (weather, traffic, radio call letters).
I wish her well, though. Her ‘niche’ seems to be writing and TV appearances.
Good Luck with your future endeavors, MK!!

Well put. English is a fun language.
I wonder if Mary Katherine’s parents were even slightly tempted to name her Virginia?
She’s also one of the “young guns” who make regular appearances on the Hugh Hewitt show. (Can you make an appearance on the radio?)
More like the ‘Maul’....
BOR does that to all his guests...even after telling them "I'll let you have the last word."
Don't know why he bothers to have guests at all.
I foresee a left turn if Obama gets reelected.
Didja see the video she made a few years ago when she pretended to drop a puppy off a high-story balcony? I laughed at the video for a week.
No, I missed that. (And JohnnyZ didn’t have a crush on her - it must have been one of the other NC guys.)

She definitely had a tough time initially and even recently sounded awkward making commercials. But she was learning.
Now if they just get rid of that liberal Nehman....
Or Honey.
Nehman is good at the machinations of running a radio show and a radio station too, IMO.
I’ve always liked him.
Liberal — yes.
But, he’s ok otherwise. I’ll keep him.
