I've been listening to Dr. Laura since Deryk was 7 or 8 years old (I think he's about 21 now) and in the beginning she had a very different view on homosexual relationships, etc. Some of her stuff is still in the same but in the beginning I loved her stance on many things. Then she did some flip flops on things and got really really obnoxious. Her show has changed several radio stations in this area and I don't know where she is now. I saw her on Larry King Live the other night and she's cut her hair short and looks a whole lot older. She badly needs a neck job...or needs to wear turtlenecks!

I did not happen to hear her show today - I do agree with some of the advice she gives, but I also know that she is, like all talk radio hosts, paid to offer her OPINION on questions posed to her. Whether she believes she is always right is really irrelevant- she is pretty outspoken on the matter of her opinions, and that she is well aware that they are in no way humble. She is free to think/say/believe whatever she wants just as the rest of us are. Dhe just has a public forum available to mass distribute her opinions.
Personally, I listen mostly to hear about the train wrecks that some people have made out of their lives and to thank my lucky stars that I am not them. I know that may seem cold, but there are some calls that completely amuse me. I actually like to hear people express their opinions- it is refreshing to hear people eschew "political correctness" and call it like they see it, which is probably why I like the LA talk radio station that I listen to so much.
