Rightwing radio host Laura Ingraham busted for bad check

According to Raw Story:

http://www.rawstory.com/2017/02/right-wing-pundit-laura-ingraham-bounced-42k-check-to-ap-trying-to-save-her-floundering-website/

Right-wing radio host and author Laura Ingraham is facing a lawsuit filed by the Associated Press after she bounced a check to the wire service for unpaid fees and lost revenue on her website LifeZette.com.

Mediaite.com reported on Saturday that the AP is suing Ingraham and LifeZette for $50,000 in a suit filed Friday in Washington, D.C. Superior Court.

In July of 2015, LifeZette reportedly signed an agreement with the AP to pay $4,200 per month for the rights to run AP content on its homepage. In February, 2016, the AP canceled the deal due to non-payment.

Ingraham’s company, Ingraham Media Group Inc., sent the AP a $42,611 check last month, but it was returned by the bank over insufficient funds. It was then, Mediaite said, that the wire service chose to take legal action.



Back in January, rightwingnuts in Virginia were all a'twitter because Ingraham announced she will run for the Senate against incumbent Tim Kaine (D, VA). Looks as though that silly dream is dead.

can afford it or not. It's about asserting their superiority and importance and showing that they don't have to comply with the same rules and civility as us little people. Just look at the Drumpf. Selfish grifters, all of them.

when ending her Goebbels-inspired speech at the RNC Convention, I don't give a damn what fucking cover-up explanation her and her lackeys and minions gave.
