Friends of conservative author and radio host Dennis Prager urged prayer and poured out encouragement after the PragerU founder was hospitalized this week following a fall that left him seriously injured.
“On Tuesday morning, PragerU founder and our dear friend, Dennis Prager, suffered a serious back injury following a fall,” the X account of PragerU tweeted. “He’s resting in a local Los Angeles hospital as doctors assess treatment options. We will keep you informed of his condition. In the meantime, Dennis welcomes the healing power of your prayers.”
Prager, 76, has been a nationally syndicated radio host since 1999.
Prager, who is Jewish, has penned 11 books, including a multi-volume biblical commentary on the Pentateuch called The Rational Bible.
In 2009, Prager founded Prager University or PragerU, which appealed to young people with five-minute videos on various topics from a conservative perspective.
Fellow Salem Media radio host Mark Davis filled in for Prager on his Wednesday radio show and urged listeners to pray for Prager’s “quick recovery.”
