A new site for Laura Ingraham

Dylan Byers reports at Politico that Laura Ingraham is putting together a new website:
Laura Ingraham's new website will be called LifeZette and will brand itself as "a cultural and political web destination for conservatives and independents," the On Media blog has learned.

The forthcoming site, which we reported on yesterday, is now being included in promotional material for Ingraham's speaking gigs. An upcoming event at the Petroleum Club of Midland, Texas, bills Ingraham as "the Editor-in-Chief and Co-Founder of the soon-to-be launched LifeZette.com."

Ingraham has apparently been at work on the site for months. The web address was registered by Ingraham's business partner Peter Anthony in October, and LinkedIn profiles for the site's staff show that they joined the company in December.

On Monday, a source told us that outgoing Daily Caller reporter Neil Munro had been tapped to serve as the site's editor. We've now confirmed that he will be the site's political editor, not it's editor-in-chief.*

Ingraham, a radio host and Fox News contributor, launched her political career as a speechwriter in the Reagan administration. She has been an influential conservative pundit since the mid-'90s and last year was named a contributor to "This Week," ABC's Sunday morning public affairs program.
