“The viewers they polled all said she was too extreme and right wing,” an insider told the tabloid.

“You reach a point when you say to yourself, ‘Do I want to keep doing this?’ There are other things on my plate I want to do – I’ve been writing a play, I’ve been neglecting my standup.”
RadarOnline.com reached out to Elisabeth’s agent for comment about her leaving the show after nine years, but got no response.
