The Merc’s Brad Kava is reporting that former Bay Area broadcaster Leo Laporte (left) will be taking over consumer reporter Michael Finney’s (right) slot from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sundays on KGO-AM 810. Kava says that when Finney’s radio contract was up, he didn’t renew because the station didn’t offer him enough money to work weekends. He can still be seen weekdays on KGO ABC 7. Laporte, who will be doing a technology program, will be syndicated from Los Angeles.
