Lisa Ling became an aunt as Laura Ling gave birth to a baby girl. The newborn is named Li Jefferson. Li after Lisa Ling and Jefferson after President Clinton’s middle name. (Amazing what a difference a year makes. Laura has gone from being imprisoned in North Korea to having a kid. Lisa also got married earlier this year.) Along with her new niece, Lisa Ling also have a new show in the works with the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). She’s been doing documentaries across the country. Since the network isn’t launched yet, she couldn’t give specifics on her upcoming show. The former host from The View will be covering topics that affect the USA including faith related issues.
