On Tuesday, Fox News announced it will include right-wing radio host Laura Ingraham in “a rotating series of personalities” to host its 5:00 pm hour. Ingraham has more time to devote to TV, after apparently being forced off her radio show, at least temprorarily. Last week, she told fans on her website her absence from her radio show “is not of my choosing,” and gave further detail to Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly last night:
INGRAHAM: I’m bound by confidentiality, so I can’t — I can’t reveal more. I want to reveal more, but I can’t. My syndicator’s decision to take me off the air. I’m going to be back in radio. It’s not health-related. It’s not family related. And I didn’t walk off my show. … I would never voluntarily leave my show.
Watch it:
Ingraham should feel right at home at Fox, where she will join a group of other openly partisan conservatives. Ingraham will make her first stint as Fox host on Monday.
