Sure!

We've all done stupid shit, we all will continue to do so- but it's the ones who hold themselves above others, when they fail it's oh so sweet. I don't think the focus is on her son- it isn't for me, it's the fact that she's so damn moral and can do no wrong and her kid grew up and bitch slapped her idea of perfection.

Controversies and Scandals
What started as a straightfoward, tough-talking advice show began to move into conservative political radio within two years of national syndication. The Dr. Laura Show went national in 1994. By 1996, Schlessinger began her list to the right, first by denouncing abortion and then taking a stronger position against working mothers. What was advice became a lecture, and then condemnation. Former supporters noticed her show became a forum for bashing feminists, day care, and eventually all women. Atheists and others of liberal religions, such as Unitarians and Wiccans were also insulted.

This "new attitude" (her show opens with the Patti LaBelle disco tune) came with Schlessinger's embrace of Judaism, first Conservative, then Orthodox. Her religious journey got off to a rocky start when she began speaking to Jewish groups. A speech to the Dallas Jewish Women's Federation led to a contretemps when Schlessinger rejected taxis, hotel rooms, and meals provided by her hosts, spoke unpleasantly to the dinner guests, then walked out ignoring her hosts and their gifts. After Maryln Schwartz, a Dallas Morning News columnist, reported on the bad behavior, Schlessinger became extremely upset on her show when reacting to the column, and began attacking all journalists. Schwartz replied with another column, which in turn inflamed Schlessinger. Angry references to the events in Dallas and the columns continued for many months and Schlessinger referred to Schwartz as "that terrible woman" in a subsequent interview (scroll down for it) in the LA Times Magazine. This "Dallas incident" was not the first time Schlessinger reacted badly to being critiqued, as she took offense at radio host Pat Thurston in 1995. Nor would it be the last, as Schlessinger next attacked Minnesota columnist Kristine Holmgren for her view of working-mom-bashing.

In September, 1997, Jacor paid $71 million for the Dr. Laura show, bought from a partnership between Schlessinger and John Shanahan, who distributed Hooked on Phonics. Schlessinger never informed her viewers of her financial relationship with Shanahan when praising the product. Her son, Deryk, recorded an on-air ad for Hooked on Phonics. Many on the conservative right embrace the phonics movement. Hooked on Phonics is also marketed on the Rush Limbaugh radio show. Jacor merged with Clear Channel in May, 1999.

In 1998, major embarassment struck Schlessinger. Well-positioned as a nationally-known moral arbiter who "preaches, teaches, and nags," naked pictures of her were posted on the Internet. At first she denied that she was the woman in the photographs, but two weeks later she sued for copyright infringement. Schlessinger's suit was ultimately dropped (search for Schlessinger to find article) when she failed to get an injunction against IEG to stop displaying the photos. The pictures were released by ex-lover Bill Ballance, who gave Schlessinger her start in the radio business in 1974.

Also in late 1998, Schlessinger ceased taking calls from gays. She began making controversial remarks, calling them "biological errors" and saying they should not adopt children. These comments continued until late 2001, when Schlessinger stopped mentioning the subject of homosexuality at all.

In July 1999, Schlessinger attacked an Orange County, California retail store, Beach Access, because they sold Big Brother, a skateboarding magazine published by Larry Flynt. Flynt earlier that year had purchased the infamous pictures of a young, disrobed Schlessinger for publication in Hustler, a porn magazine. Schlessinger claimed that Big Brother was Hustler magazine with a skateboarding cover stapled on, and encouraged her callers to voice their displeasure directly to the store. Schlessinger provided the telephone number and the name of the assistant manager who would not remove the skateboarding magazine. When the store owner disputed Schlessinger's version of events on the Howard Stern show, Schlessinger sued. Her lawsuit was dismissed as a SLAPP suit, use of the legal system to restrain public speech. Beach Access's owner received a settlement estimated in the low six figures.

In November, Schlessinger attacked an award-winning essay written by an eighth-grade girl, that favored free speech on the Internet. Still reacting to her pictures on the Internet, Schlessinger stated on national radio: "If she was my daughter, I’d probably put her up for adoption...Poor Sara doesn’t get it. When she makes her marriage vows and her husband has sex with everybody else, let’s see if she thinks that this philosophy works." Schlessinger suggested sacrificing the child, Inca-style and refused to apologize when reached by the Connecticut Attorney General.

In Spring 2000, Schlessinger signed a deal with Paramount to do a television program. Thousands complained to announced sponsors, who dropped support of the show, and a website, Stop Dr. Laura, came online to protest. It is not clear if the show failed because of or in spite of the website, but critical reviews were uniformly negative. The show was cancelled in March 2001 due to poor audience ratings. The complaints and the website stemmed from Schlessingers negative comments about gays, yet the television show avoided controversy while the radio show embraced it. This may be the real reason the latter is still in production.

Meanwhile, the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council (CBSC) ruled that the Dr. Laura (radio) show violated that nation's broadcasting ethics code because her anti-homosexual remarks could lead to violence. Over the next year, all Canadian stations dropped the show.

In October 2000, Schlessinger paid for a full-page ad in the Gay Hollywood issue of Variety, that presented itself as a Yom Kippur apology for previous negative remarks. Few in the gay community felt it was sincere, mindful of a March 2000 apology she made to them that she retracted five days later.

In May, 2001, Schlessinger advised a caller not to let a boy with Tourette's Syndrome attend a wedding, angering many with the syndrome or who cared for TS children. Schlessinger compounded her mistake by defending her advice and referring to a 20-year-old textbook which recommended medication. This enraged the National Tourette Syndrome Association (TSA), whose members deluged her show's parent company, Premiere Radio Networks, with angry calls and faxes. Within a week Schlessinger read an on-air apology that again did not satisfy those who criticized her.

After September 11th, 2001, Schlessinger attempted to steer the show more toward politics than advice. Ratings dropped. At the height of the show's success, The Dr. Laura Show was heard on more than 450 stations. Today there are fewer than 250, and many stations either carry fewer than 3 hours or no longer carry the show live. By contrast, the Rush Limbaugh show continues to be heard on more than 600 radio stations.

In December, 2002, Schlessinger's mother Yolanda was found dead in her condominium, apparantly dead for months. The lurid story stayed in the headlines because of a suspicion of murder. Controversy arose because of Schlessinger's previous advice to callers telling them to "honor thy father and mother" contrasted with her not knowing her own mother had died months ago. Some felt Schlessinger handled the situation poorly, making statements that disrespected her mother, who could no longer defend herself. Others noted that after Yolanda's death, Schlessinger became harsher with advice on handling callers' mothers. Several months later, the death was ruled from natural causes.

In June, 2003, Laura Schlessinger announced on her show that she was no longer an Orthodox Jew. In a series of monologues over the next month, she explained that she did not feel a connection with God and felt frustrated by the effort she had put into following the religion. She also mentioned envying the relationship with God described by her Christian fans. However, in early spring of 2003, she took up sailing and sailboat racing at the Santa Barbara Yacht Club. Several posters at the Usenet newsgroup alt.radio.talk.dr-laura noted that some races she had entered took place on Saturday, which is the Jewish Sabbath, a clear violation of Jewish law. With more and more posters soliciting opinions from Orthodox rabbis, it was only a matter of time before Schlessinger would have to choose between sailing or remaining an Orthodox Jew.

She chose sailing, becoming a member of SBYC in July, 2003. According to their newsletter, Schlessinger owns four sailboats.

here's something i found. it's a very early, archived version of the wikipedia entry on her. it's the "controversies" section of her entry. and it is actually very well researched from the dr. laura usenet newsgroup. http://en.wikipedia.org/w...id=1718173

i LOVE LOVE LOVE the last line.






btw, i love listening to her show. her advice is the perfect cross between obvious common sense and train wreck.

Yes her show (I was forced to listen to it about 10-12 years ago at work) was a cross between common sense and a train wreck. I looked forward to her show at the start but the more I listened the more I started disliking her.

CynthiasSocks said:

yeah, i don't listen to her on a daily basis like i used to in, say, 1996 or 1998, but only when i happen to catch it when i'm in the car. it's on in the evenings here. i do still enjoy it.


a guy in radio once told me "This show is hot now, but if something serious ever happens in this country, it'll take a huge tumble." and he was right. 9/11 was pretty much the turnaround from her ratings peak. She got dumped out of her live timselot, if not dropped completely, from most of the bigger talk stations almost immediately.

There's no way in hell I'd give her a second of my time today (yet here I am bashing her! LOL!!!). She's rich, she can live out the rest of her life care free... well, except her issues within her family. But don't we all have those?

CynthiasSocks said:

I wonder who these people are that call into her show for serious psychological advice from a person whose degree makes her qualified to be... what, a gym teacher?
