After leaving Webster University, Loesch began writing for St. Louis Magazine, doing investigative news articles, and began her website "Mamalogues". The St. Louis Post-Dispatch ran "Mamalogues" as a weekly online column 2006–2008, winning Loesch Riverfront Times' "Best Newspaper Columnist St. Louis" for 2007. Loesch started hosting her radio show in 2008; it became a nationally syndicated, daily program, The Dana Show: The Conservative Alternative, on Radio America from flagship station KFTK-FM in St. Louis. In July 2008, Loesch was chosen as one of St. Louis Business Journal's top 30 Under 30. She was recognized by the Nielsen ratings as one of the Top 50 Most Powerful Mom Bloggers. In October 2010, Loesch was hired to be editor-in-chief of Big Journalism, a conservative website created by Andrew Breitbart. In February 2011, CNN hired Loesch as a political analyst in preparation for its 2012 election coverage. In 2009, Loesch co-founded the St. Louis Tea Party along with its board president, Bill Hennessy. Loesch left the organization in December 2011.
In 2012, Loesch was the recipient of Accuracy In Media's Grassroots Journalism award. She also guest hosts for other national radio hosts such as Glenn Beck and Michael Savage. Loesch was added to Talkers Magazine's top 100 "heavy hitters" in 2012 and was number 24 in 2017. Loesch hosted the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in 2013. In January 2012, Loesch spoke on her show in defense of U.S. Marines videotaped urinating on the corpses of dead Taliban fighters, commenting that "I'd drop trou and do it, too. That's me though. I want a million cool points for these guys (Marines). Is that harsh to say?"
In December 2012, after the death of founder Andrew Breitbart earlier in the year, Loesch sued the parent company of her former employer, Breitbart LLC. Loesch claimed in court documents that owner and operator Breitbart LLC bound her to "what amounts to indentured servitude in limbo" after she said she was forced to terminate her contract as the result of a hostile working environment. She reached a non-monetary settlement with Breitbart in 2013.
In May 2013, after a series of public comments back and forth between Loesch and Piers Morgan on Twitter regarding the murder of British soldier Lee Rigby, Morgan vowed to ban Loesch from his show, Piers Morgan Live. Loesch returned to the show in January 2014 after their producers, who were friends, arranged for Loesch and Morgan to work out their differences amicably.
On January 10, 2014, Loesch debuted her new daily TV Show, Dana, on Glenn Beck's TheBlaze TV. The show featured regulars such as author Benjamin Howe, and writer Brandon Morse. Loesch left in November 2017. In 2016, KFTK-FM in St. Louis, her original radio station, dropped her show. The show was picked up by WSDZ shortly thereafter.
During the 2016 Republican presidential primary, she endorsed the Ted Cruz campaign while disparaging the candidacy of Donald J. Trump. However, according to The Atlantic, since Trump's election Loesch has become one of the Trump presidency's most visible "passionate defenders".
In 2016, Loesch labelled the mainstream media as "the rat bastards of the Earth. They are the boil on the backside of American politics ... I'm happy frankly to see them curb stomped." When the videos resurfaced after a mass shooting at the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis, Maryland in 2018, Loesch said she had meant she wanted some news stories to be curb-stomped and was not encouraging violence against journalists.
Following the August 8, 2022 FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, Loesch appeared as a guest on FOX News, where characterized the search of the Florida residence of Donald Trump as "stunts", "nothing more than Democrats trying to settle political scores", and stated that [President] "Biden's too much of an embarrassment" to stand for the Democratic Party in the 2024 United States elections.
Loesch's radio program, which had already aired in the same time slot as The Rush Limbaugh Show during the last few years of Limbaugh's life, was picked up by several stations owned by Audacy, Inc., including her former flagship KFTK-FM in St. Louis, in June 2021 after Limbaugh died. Radio America handles the distribution of the show, while Audacy is producing Loesch's podcasts.
In October 2022, Loesch attracted press attention for a rally speech supporting Senate candidate Herschel Walker. Walker had been accused in a Daily Beast story of abetting his ex-girlfriend's abortion, the story being then reported in many notable publications. (Walker denied the allegation, which had not been independently verified by other publications at the time of Loesch's speech, and announced plans for a lawsuit).
Loesch's speech included the statements "I don't care if Herschel Walker paid to abort endangered baby eagles. I want control of the Senate!" and "If the Daily Beast story is true, you're telling me Walker used his money to reportedly pay some skank for an abortion, and [Sen. Raphael Warnock] wants to use all of our moneys to pay a whole bunch of skanks for abortions. So, it doesn't change anything for me!", which occasioned some commentary in the press.
