Hours after Glenn Beck (left) got the boot from the Pappas family’s KTRB-AM 860 as it flipped to all-sports, Clear Channel’s KNEW-AM 910 began airing a promo asking listeners to go to their Web site to say if they want Beck on the station. Beck is syndicated by Premier Radio Networks, a CC subsidiary, so he has a good chance of landing at KNEW. The ratings success of Beck’s Fox News Channel program doesn’t hurt either.
UPDATE, Tuesday, 5 p.m.: KNEW Program Director John Scott said on his blog today that the station has picked up Beck, and will be airing him from noon to 3, leading into Michael Savage, starting Tuesday, May 26.
