Laurence Allen Elder (born April 27, 1952) is an American conservative[1] talk radio host, author, and attorney who hosts The Larry Elder Show. The show began as a local program on Los Angeles radio station KABC in 1993 and ran until 2008, followed by a second run on KABC from 2010 to 2014. The show is nationally syndicated, first through ABC Radio Networks from 2002 to 2007 and then Salem Media Group since 2015.

Elder has written nonfiction books and a nationally syndicated column through Creators Syndicate. Elder is currently a candidate for governor of California, running as a Republican to replace Gavin Newsom in the 2021 California gubernatorial recall election.

Early life and education

Elder as a high school senior in 1970

Elder was born in Los Angeles and grew up in the city's Pico-Union and South Central areas. His father Randolph (1915–2011), who was born in Athens, Georgia, was a sergeant in the United States Marine Corps during World War II and moved to California from Georgia after the war during the Second Great Migration.[2] After working as a janitor at Nabisco, Randolph opened a cafe in Pico-Union around 1962.[2] Following his father's passing in 2011, Larry Elder recalled: "Gruff and blunt, my dad often intimidated my two brothers and me. But we never doubted his love or his commitment to his family."[2] In 2013, Elder and his brother Kirk accepted a Congressional Gold Medal from U.S. Representative Dana Rohrabacher on their father's behalf.[3] Larry Elder's mother Viola (née Conley, 1924–2006) was originally from Toney, Alabama, and she was a clerical worker for the United States Department of War during World War II.[4]

An honors student who also took advanced courses at Fairfax High School, Elder graduated from Crenshaw High School in 1970 and earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in political science in 1974 from Brown University. He then earned a Juris Doctor from University of Michigan Law School in 1977.[5]

Legal career

After graduation, Elder joined the Cleveland law firm Squire, Sanders & Dempsey. In 1980, he founded Laurence A. Elder and Associates, a legal executive search firm.[5] Elder stepped down from operating Elder and Associates around 1987 but continued to own the firm until 1995.[5]

Media career

Elder in the 2000s

Television, film, and video

After a successful audition, Elder began co-hosting Fabric, a topic-oriented television show produced by Dennis Goulden that aired on Cleveland's PBS member station WVIZ in 1988.[6][5][7]

In the early 1990s, the show's name was retitled The Larry Elder Show and moved to WOIO (then-affilated with Fox), then later to cable TV. Goulden and Elder won the Ohio Cable Television Association's "Best Program Series Award" in 1992 for their work on the show,[8] which lasted until Elder moved back to Los Angeles in 1994.

In 1997, Elder hosted the PBS program National Desk[9] along with fellow conservatives Fred Barnes and Laura Ingraham.[10] Elder hosted the segments Redefining Racism: Fresh Voices From Black America[9][11] and Title IX and Women in Sports: What's Wrong With This Picture, which criticized Title IX.[10]

In 2000, Elder won a Los Angeles Area Emmy Award for his KCAL-TV News special Making Waves – LAUSD. Between 2000 and 2001, Elder hosted the court series Moral Court, distributed by Warner Brothers Television.[12] In 2004, he hosted The Larry Elder Show, a KCBS-TV talk show distributed by Warner Bros.[13][14]

In 2005, Elder created a self-financed film called Michael & Me, in which he offers a rebuttal to filmmaker Michael Moore's Bowling for Columbine.[15]

In 2007, Elder was one of the rotating talk hosts auditioning for the slot vacated by the now-canceled Imus in the Morning on MSNBC.[16] However, the job went to Joe Scarborough instead.

On July 5, 2008, the pilot Showdown with Larry Elder aired on Fox News Channel. The show was not picked up.[citation needed]

Elder is a columnist with Creators Syndicate. His newspaper and online column are carried by Investor's Business Daily, World Net Daily, Townhall.com, Jewish World Review and FrontPage Magazine.[citation needed]

He hosts a video series published by The Epoch Times.[17]

Radio

In 1994, Elder began hosting a weekday evening talk show on Los Angeles talk radio station KABC.[18][19]

From 2002 to 2007, Elder's show was nationally syndicated by ABC Radio Networks and its news-talk network, ABC News & Talk. After Citadel Broadcasting took over most of ABC's radio operations in 2007, syndication of Elder's show was discontinued in favor of Mark Levin, and the show reverted to a local show in August of that year.[citation needed]

December 12, 2008, was his final day on KABC.[19] Elder then began a daily live podcast as well as a webcast starting in December 2009.[20] On September 27, 2010, Elder returned to KABC.[21][22]

On December 2, 2014, Elder was fired from KABC following his afternoon airshift.[23] He was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2015.[24]

On June 1, 2015, Elder joined the lineup of CRN Digital Talk Radio Networks. His program is heard from noon to 3 PM on CRN Channel 1 and is replayed from 3 to 6 PM on CRN Channel 5.[25]

In August 2015, The Larry Elder Show began national syndication through the Salem Radio Network, including Los Angeles station KRLA.[26]

Jean Guerrero, in a 2020 interview on NPR, said that Elder had told her that he had invited former Trump Administration official Stephen Miller on his radio show as a guest a total of 69 times, having been impressed with Miller (then a high school student) after he had first called in.[27]

Writing

In the late 1980s, Elder wrote op-eds for local newspapers in Cleveland.[5] In 1998, Elder began writing a nationally syndicated column through Creators Syndicate.[28] Elder wrote a weekly column for the Los Angeles Daily News until April 2012.[29]

Political positions

Elder's views are conservative[1][30] and right wing.[31] Elder is a registered Republican;[1][32] he voted for the Republican candidate in every presidential election since 1976.[33] Elder labels himself a libertarian, describing himself as a "small-l" libertarian as opposed to a member of the Libertarian Party.[1][32]

Economic issues

Elder lists in his book, The Ten Things You Can't Say In America released in 2000, his "Ten-Point Plan" to save America. He calls for abolishing the IRS; passing a national sales tax, reducing government by 80%; ending welfare and entitlements, abolishing the minimum wage, and eliminating corporate taxes.[34][35]

Elder opposes minimum wage laws, arguing that "The ideal minimum wage is $0.00."[36] Elder has written that universal basic income is unaffordable, citing Finland and Canada as examples.[37][38] Elder opposes California's unpaid family leave law.[30]

In his 2020 film, Uncle Tom: An Oral History of the American Black Conservative, Elder criticizes the War on Poverty arguing that it has increased single parent households among black kids in America.[39]

"We've gone from 25% of Black kids born outside wedlock in 1965, to nearly 70% now. You cannot attribute that to Jim Crow and racism. It has to do with bad government policy."

On a CNN Crossfire segment in 2013 along with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, Elder attacked Christie for accepting the "architecture of the welfare state" and claimed that "government took almost 50 percent of the American people's money" through mandates,[40] a claim he supported by referring to an analysis by the conservative advocacy group Americans for Tax Reform.[41] PolitiFact rated his claim "Mostly False" finding that the number was hard to approximate, but taxation would reach "It's easy to get to the mid-to-high 30 percent range", though the last 10-15 points would be difficult to reach.[41][42] Elder countered with a letter pointing to a 2009 report from Americans for Tax Reform that said the combined cost of government spending and regulatory burdens at all levels totaled "a whopping 61.34 percent".[43]

Elder has been critical of public-sector labor unions, especially the California Teachers Association.[44] He contends that some 15,000 California teachers are "incompetent"[44] and previously proposed that thousands of teachers in the state be fired.[33] He later said that he favored more charter schools and private schools instead.[33]

Social issues

Elder argues in his book, The Ten Things You Can't Say In America, released in 2000, for ending farm and tobacco subsidies and legalizing drugs.[34][45]Elder has said that he believes that drugs should be treated as a health problem, and not a criminal justice one.[31]

Despite his pro-legalization stance, he has also disputed the characterization of anti-drug laws as racist, pointing out that many black politicians such as Harlem's Rep. Charlie Rangel have historically pressured Congress to pass tough anti-drug laws, most notably the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986.[46]

Elder states his opposition to gun control citing a study by John Lott finding that if "states which did not have right-to-carry concealed gun provisions had adopted them in 1992, approximately 1,570 murders; 4,177 rapes; and over 60,000 aggravated assaults would have been avoided yearly."[47] He has criticized Gun buybacks and argued against gun-free zones in schools, saying eliminating the latter would lead to fewer school shootings.[48]

Elder has argued that Roe v. Wade should be overturned,[33] calling the decision "one of the worst decisions that the Supreme Court ever handed down."[30] He has called abortion "murder"[30] and believes that abortion laws should be decided at the state level.[33][30]

Elder has a history of making anti-LGBT remarks on Twitter.[31]

In 2021, Elder accused California of having a "soft-on-crime ethos"; he opposes a California law that banned police from using certain chokeholds.[44] Elder opposes 2014 California Proposition 47, which reclassified as misdemeanors many lower-level drug and property crimes that had formerly been felonies, and said that if elected governor he would press for the proposition to be repealed.[44]

Science, environment, and COVID-19 pandemic

During his media career, Elder published and gave airtime to misinformation and fringe views on scientific topics, such as smoking, climate change, and COVID-19 treatments.[30]

In a 2000 book, Elder suggested that the health hazards of secondhand tobacco smoke had been exaggerated, rejecting the scientific consensus that secondhand smoke is a serious threat that caused 2.5 million deaths in the half-century before 2014.[30]

Elder's website once described climate change as a "myth"; in a 2008 interview, he called climate change a "crock," disparaged Republicans such as John McCain and George W. Bush, who acknowledged climate change, and said that global warming is not a "big peril" to planet Earth.[30] In 2021, Elder acknowledged that climate change is occurring ("I do believe in climate change. I do believe our climate is getting warmer.").[30] However, he contended that the scientific consensus on climate change (i.e., that human activity is the primary contributor) "is debatable"[33] and continued to criticize what he called "climate-change alarmism."[33][30]

In 2021, Elder pledged to remove current statewide public health mandates for state government workers in California, such as COVID-19 vaccine requirements, face mask requirements or regular COVID-19 testing.[33] In 2020 Elder denied that Donald Trump mismanaged the response to the COVID-19 and defended Trump's political rallies during the pandemic.[49] In 2021, he did not challenge a call-in listener to his radio show who espoused COVID-19 misinformation suggesting that COVID-19 vaccines were dangerous and part of a Bill Gates-orchestrated plot, and a page on Elder's website promoted the call-in listener's comments.[30]

Elder has proposed suspending, or granting "across-the-board waivers" from, the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act, contending that doing so would speed up housing construction.[44][33][30]

Political activities

Roll Call reported that Elder contemplated a possible run for the United States Senate against California Senator Barbara Boxer in 2010.[50]

2021 California gubernatorial recall election

In July 2021, Elder announced that he was running against Governor Gavin Newsom in the 2021 California gubernatorial recall election.[51] He said that he was encouraged to run by fellow conservative talk-radio figure Dennis Prager, a mentor to Elder.[30]

California Secretary of State Shirley Weber initially omitted Elder's name from the list of candidates to be on the ballot, saying that he failed to submit complete tax return information, required for candidates after the recent passage of Senate Bill 27, which mandated tax return disclosure for both presidential and gubernatorial candidates in order to appear on a primary ballot (the presidential requirement was struck down by the courts). Elder sued, saying that his paperwork was properly submitted.[52][53] On July 21, 2021, Judge Laurie Earl of the Sacramento County Superior Court ordered Elder's reinstatement to the recall ballot, holding that Weber improperly disqualified Elder, who had "substantially complied" with disclosure requirements, and that the tax return requirement in Senate Bill 27 applied to "direct primary election" ballots and not special recall elections.[54][55][56][57][58]
