LA Radio Host Questions the Character of Larry Elder

Los Angeles radio host Dominique DiPrima is raising questions about California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder’s character.

The First Things First host on KBLA Talk 1580, Los Angeles’ first Black-owned talk radio station, played a clip from one of Elder’s shows during the OJ Simpson murder trial in 1995.

In a Facebook post, the station said the audio proves that Elder made disparaging comments about “African Americans” and freely tossed around “the N-word to the enjoyment of a presumably Caucasian audience.”

Elder, a conservative Republican, is vying to become the state’s first Black governor.

“I was really disturbed by the news that the recall election is almost 50-50,” DiPrima said. “The leading candidate to replace Gov. Gavin Newsome is talk radio host Larry Elder, someone who I had my own personal encounter with when I first came to Los Angeles and first started doing talk radio.”

Last week, Elder sued California’s Secretary of State after she excluded him from the list of 41 candidates in the recall election.

During her monologue Thursday, DiPrima did not mince words when she talked about Elder’s negative impact on the minority community.

“The vitriol, the racism that I heard on talk radio in the city made my hair stand on edge, “she said. “I invited some folks on my show to talk about, Larry Elder was one of them.”

  1. Why are you giving aid in this election by promoting an angry activist who has a grudge. She clearly is looking to smear Elder here. Why else would she go back over 25 years to pull this clip out. She has not let her grudge with Elder go She is holding up this election based on a grudge from over 25 years. What a bitter and angry person
