Flanders has described herself as a "lefty person."[1] The brothers Alexander, Andrew and Patrick Cockburn—all journalists—are her half uncles. Author Lydia Davis is her half-aunt. Her sister is Stephanie Flanders, a former BBC journalist.[2] Early lifeFlanders is the daughter of the British comic songwriter and broadcaster Michael Flanders and the American-born Claudia Cockburn, first daughter of well-known radical journalist Claud Cockburn and American author Hope Hale Davis.[2] She grew up in the Kensington district of London and moved to the U.S. in 1980 at age 19.[3] She graduated from Barnard College of Columbia University in 1985 with a degree in history and women's studies.[4][5] CareerFlanders was founding director of the women's desk at the media watch group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), and for a decade produced and hosted CounterSpin, FAIR's syndicated radio program. In January 1993, she appeared on the ABC "Good Morning America" program as a spokesperson for FAIR to discuss how domestic violence increases during the annual Super Bowl (a claim strongly disputed by Christina Hoff Sommers, who in her 1994 book Who Stole Feminism? criticized Flanders for lack of evidence). Flanders hosted the weekday radio show Your Call on KALW, before starting the Saturday/Sunday evening Laura Flanders Show on Air America Radio in 2004. It became the weekly one-hour Radio Nation in 2007, and a daily TV show on Free Speech TV, "GRITtv with Laura Flanders" in 2008. That show aired for three years on Free Speech TV before moving to KCET/Linktv and teleSUR, as a weekly program.[6] Flanders is a contributing writer for The Nation, and Yes Magazine and has also contributed to In These Times, The Progressive and Ms. Magazine. Flanders has published several books: Blue Grit: True Democrats Take Back Politics from the Politicians (Penguin Press 2007); Bushwomen: Tales of a Cynical Species (Verso, 2004), a study of the women in George W. Bush's cabinet; and a collection of essays, Real Majority, Media Minority: The Cost of Sidelining Women in Reporting (1997). She edited "At The Tea Party...." (O/R Books 2010) and The W Effect: Sexual Politics in the Age of Bush (2004) and contributed to The Contenders, (Seven Stories, 2008) among others. GRITtvGRITtv is a weekly, 25 minute interview-style show featuring one in-depth interview with authors and thought leaders, including investigative reports, and a commentary by Flanders called "The F Word".[7]Personal lifeFlanders is a lesbian, in 2011 the New York Times stated her partner of 20 years was the Choreographer Elizabeth Streb.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://blip.tv/file/1334489 |title=GRITtv Interview: Stefan Forbes |accessdate=9 November 2008 |work=GRITtv |publisher=GRITtv |date= |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081011095204/http://blip.tv/file/1334489 |archivedate=11 October 2008}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.cabaret-berlin.com/?p=518|title=Six Degrees of Separation – Sally Bowles to Stephanie Flanders - Cabaret Berlin|publisher=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://mediaburn.org/video/the-90s-raw-laura-flanders/|title=The '90s Raw: Laura Flanders|work=Media Burn|accessdate=2 September 2013}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/15/garden/elizabeth-streb-and-laura-flanders-at-home-with.html?pagewanted=all|title=At home with Elizabeth Streb and Laura Flanders: A High-Level Collaboration on a SoHo Loft|work=The New York Times|author=Scelfo, Julie|date=15 December 2011|accessdate=1 September 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.towardfreedom.com/home/content/view/639/59/|title=Laura Flanders: Anti-War Radio Journalist|author=Feldman, Bob|work=Toward Freedom|date=26 October 2005|accessdate=1 September 2013}} 6. ^{{Cite web|title = Team|url = http://www.lauraflanders.com/team|website = The Laura Flanders Show|accessdate = 23 November 2015}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://grittv.org/ |title=GRITtv website |accessdate=16 September 2014}} 8. ^[https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/15/garden/elizabeth-streb-and-laura-flanders-at-home-with.html At Home with Elizabeth Streb and Laura Flenders] NYT External links
