Dr. Laura Schlessinger, 63, has
been protested for using the N
word on air with a caller last
week.
The talk show radio host said
Tuesday that she will not renew her
contract. It's up, over, at the end
of the year.
She's been in the business for more
than 30 years.
"I want to be able to say what's on my
mind and in my heart and what I think
is helpful and useful without somebody
getting angry or some special interest
group deciding this is a time to silence
a voice of dissent," Schlessinger
explained.
Schlessinger used the N word 11 times in
a 5 minute call on the 10th of August.
"I'm not retiring. I'm not quitting," she
continued. "I feel energized actually,
stronger and freer to say the things that I
believe need to be said for people in this
country."
"I was attempting to make a philosophical point,
and I articulated the N word all the way out,
more than one time. And that was wrong. I'll
say it again, that was wrong," Schlessinger
apologized.
