Laura Ingraham



What if we just cut off the unemployment [aid]? Hunger is a pretty powerful thing. We are all officially working for an organization that hates us.

Laura Ingraham is an American conservative talk radio host, television personality and Ann Coulter knock-off. During the 1980s, Ingraham was the first female editor of the Dartmouth Review and then a speechwriter in the Reagan administration. During the 1990s, she became a commentator for CBS and MSNBC. She launched her radio show in 2001. She occasionally filled in for Bill O'Reilly and other Fox News hosts. She currently hosts her own Fox News program, The Ingraham Angle. Due to similarity in names and people too high on rage to properly read bylines, vitriol intended for Ingraham ends up directed to Australian reporter Lauren Ingram with depressing frequency.

Dartmouth Review
Ingraham began her career as a pundit at the Dartmouth Review, Dartmouth College's student-run conservative rag. During her stint at the Review, she met and dated fellow wingnut Dinesh D'Souza and helped to out members of the university's gay-straight alliance. Despite her status as a Dartmouth alum, she enjoys railing against "elites" with fancy-pants college degrees.

Nazi
At the 2016 Republican convention, Ingraham stuck out her right hand in a way that closely resembles a Nazi salute. Her older brother, Curtis Ingraham, publicly accused her of being a nazi-sympathizer, and stated "We grew up with an abusive, alcoholic father who was a Nazi sympathizer. Like father like daughter?! This was the familial soil that gave bloom to my sister's anger."
