No, No, No, DMA...THAT is a sexist comment. If Laura beat cancer,and came back on the air, she will beat whatever contract dispute is currently going on with her on Talk Radio Broadcasting. She already has a temp new gig on FOX...

Laura is one of the best talk radio hosts out there IMO. She's smart, articulate, and polite.

All you have to know is that her new adopted daughter from Central America is well taken care of in Laura's absence. Laura is working, and self supporting, like millions of other women every day.

Her Bio:
en.wikipedia.org

Ingraham grew up in a middle-class family in Glastonbury, Connecticut and graduated from Glastonbury High School in 1981. She was educated at Dartmouth College, graduating in 1985.

In the late 1980s, Ingraham worked as a speechwriter in the Ronald Reagan administration for the Domestic Policy advisor. She also briefly served as editor of The Prospect, the magazine issued by Concerned Alumni of Princeton. After receiving her Juris Doctor from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1991, she served as a law clerk for Judge Ralph K. Winter, Jr. of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in New York and subsequently clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. She then worked as a private defense attorney at the New York-based law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom.

In the late 1990s, she became a CBS commentator and hosted the MSNBC program Watch It!, which she jokingly says should have been called Watch It Get Canceled! She appeared on a 1995 cover of The New York Times Magazine in a leopardskin miniskirt — which, she joked, is displayed in the Smithsonian — for an article about rising young conservatives.

She is the author of three books: The Hillary Trap: Looking for Power in All the Wrong Places (2002), which presents Hillary Clinton as an example of the 'traps' women can encounter; Shut Up & Sing (2003), which decries the elitist views Ingraham attributes to liberals working primarily in entertainment, academia, and the media; and Power to the People (2007), in which she discusses conservative values concerning family life, education and patriotism.
