[h=2]Laura Ingraham, the radio host and Fox News commentator, is about to become a prime time host on the conservative cable network.[/h]Ingraham is expected to take over the 10 p.m. hour on Fox News, according to people who spoke on condition of anonymity.
While there may be one or two final details to negotiate, Ingraham has been telling friends that the deal is essentially done, the sources said. Her new show will be part of a broader change to the network's top-rated prime time lineup. Sean Hannity's show, currently at 10 p.m., will move one hour earlier to 9 p.m., multiple sources confirmed.
And "The Five," a talk show originally named for its 5 p.m. time slot, will shift from 9 p.m. back to its namesake hour.

Good move by FNC....I think Ingraham will be a good addition for them, and their night time line up...She will destroy the ever so snarky Lawrence O'Donnell....And Hannity will sink Maddow....Plus the Five back at 5 where they should be....

I'd rather have Hannity simply gone - he is a one trick pony and having seen that same trick a few times it no longer impresses. I would prefer "specials" during that time slot, perhaps rotating through the Fox News staff on a week long basis - sort of a toss it all on the wall and see what (if anything) sticks.

Yeah, I can see how he wears....But, at the same time, he is a heavyweight in the business, no way he will be gone...
 
I used to like Laura, but since she was all in for Trump - meh.

We're liberals. We don't need others to tell us how to think, we can figure it out on our own.

She was for what she thought Trump was or maybe wished him to be - time will tell.

That was said about Beck and O'Reilly too by many so I will keep on hoping.
 
Another asshole in a long list of past and present.
Might as well add Coulter too.

The New York Times, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, Fox, et al., are gigantic corporations — mostly owned by even larger ones. The job of giant corporations is not to inform American citizens about reality or play a hallowed role in the history of a self-governing republic. It’s to make as much profit as possible.
 
Another obnoxious right wing asspiehole. Yippee skippy.
 
Yeah, she's a perfect fit for Fox. She'll spew hate nightly and the Cons who are too lazy to think for themselves will lap up that hate.

It is funny how often Cons bitch about bias in the media but then swear by Fox, who is 95% of the time bias.

What makes you think that people who enjoy watching O'Donnel and Maddow will suddenly find Ingraham and Hannity irresistible? They may get more viewers but they won't be pulling them away from MSNBC.
 
I won't be listening to her right-wing propaganda.

Many of our resident right wing loons will be touching themselves during her shows.

There's very little cross audience between the two, well maybe besides me, so I'd like to know your rationale for the bolded.

Oh there might be a few on the left doing that while engaging in some darker fantasies. Either way Fox viewership goes up.

BWHAHAHA! Have you even read these boards? I mean it sounds like a regurgitation of talking points from last night's Maddow on the left and Hannity on the right...sheesh!

Ol slap head Hannity is the biggest partisan on Fox, not an easy achievement on that network.

So, I have to ask, in your mind should there even be a right leaning cable news outlet?

Jeanine Pirro is a close second. Also putting wear and tear on my remote.

I like Ingraham a lot. Baier said tonight she'd start the end of October. He didn't say what would be at 10 until then.
My complaint with Hannity is that he seemed to look for opportunities to interrupt with what he thinks he knows.
That kind of thing drove me away years ago.

I have seen her in action, were does Fox find these brain dead duds? It's like an original thought at Fox News is foreign.
