From an August 17 Washington Post article:

Radio talk show host Dr. Laura Schlessinger tells CNN's Larry King that she will not renew her contract, which is up at the end of the year.

“I have made the decision not to do radio anymore,” Schlessinger said. “The reason is, I want to regain my First Amendment rights. I want to be able to say what is on my mind.”

Dr. Laura has been under fire for repeatedly using a racial epithet on a recent segment of her show.

From an August 17 post to The Wall Street Journal's SpeakEasy blog:

Dr. Laura Schlessinger announced on “Larry King Live” Tuesday that she would not be continuing her radio show after her contract with Talk Radio Network expires at the end of the year.

The radio personality told King, “I've made the decision not to do radio anymore. The reason is I want to regain my First Amendment rights.”

Over the past week, Schlessinger, 63, has been under attack for using the n-word 11 times in five minutes on August 10, when she was trying to make a point about racism to an African-American caller to her show. When the caller pressed Schlessinger about her free use of the racial epithet, the host responded: “Oh, then I guess you don't watch HBO or listen to any black comedians. My dear, the point I am trying to make ... [is that] we've got a black man as president and we've got more complaining about racism than ever. I think that's hilarious.”
