Dr. Laura Schlessinger will debut a new, three-hour daily radio show on Sirius XM in January, according to an Associated Press report.

In the wake of her N-word rant earlier this year, Schlessinger announced she would sign off from her current radio show on December 31. At the time, she claimed the move was designed to "regain her First Amendment rights."

The AP report, which appears to have been published prematurely, says Schlessinger will begin on Sirius XM on January 3, just three days after signing off from terrestrial radio.

Schlessinger ignited controversy in August after using the N-word eleven times in five minutes with a black female caller. Following a firestorm, and an apology, Schlessinger announced on "Larry King Live" that she would end her radio show, citing a desire to free herself from concerns about affiliate radio stations and sponsors.

1. I won't fail to miss it.

My God, she looks horrible in that pic.

[gratuitous]

2. Will she be doing her show nekkid?

The better to call women sluts and whores, of course.

[Terra Alta]

3. So, she will be free to spew her racist hate without consequence.

I won't be listening, and hope her show is a huge failure.

4. Perfect. I'm canceling Sirius/XM. I can stream tens of thousands of radio stations with my iPhone.

Any Internet station for free.

I was going to cancel my account anyway and I can tell them this is why.

6. +1

I've seriously been thinking of canceling anyway. I haven't enjoyed one of the songs they have played on Ch. 14 (a classic rock deal)in quite awhile. I've moved on to listening to MP3s anyway.

9. I listen to Sirius Left every day

I would never even dream of giving it up.

[Maat]

15. I hear you, but ...

I have access to the Thom Hartmann archives, via a monthly-debiting account, and just don't drive that much anymore. I can always download my favorite shows (for my favorite hosts) and just play 'em via the MP3 player. I listen mostly via my computer anyway.

5. Is that a bear-claw necklace she's wearing?

She been wrastlin' bears?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. If my neck looked like that

I wouldn't wear anything that drew attention to it. I've seen better-looking necks on chickens.

Meow...

[Adsos Letter]

8. LOL!

Ah, meow indeed. :D :hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

10. Which channel?

I need to know so I can plan on never turning it on.

[UTUSN]

11. K&R #1? She learned the Quitter lesson: NOT to go AWAY and make brazillions-MORE!1

This is actually ONLY Rec NUMBER ONE?!1

[tulsakatz]

12. ....but whatever happened to her battle for 1st amendment rights?

...which, btw, were never taken away to begin with but that is the excuse she used to leave her show! Or was she lying when she said that?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

14. It's like OJ's hunt for the real killers...it's all relative.

:rofl:

[sarcasmo]

13. PUKE!

[leeroysphitz]

16. Good. She'll be just like Howard Stern: Never heard from again. n/t

[Common Sense Party]

17. The big question is: WHY?

[Ian David]

18. I thought we were finally rid of this piece of shit. n/t
