Other Columbus OH radio news via Ohio Media Watch:
OMW readers in Central Ohio tell us that rumored changes at Clear Channel's two Columbus AM outlets have been announced, officially.
This afternoon on talk WTVN/610, station management announced another reshuffling of the station's talk show lineup.
Losing yet another large market Clear Channel talk station clearance is Premiere's Glenn Beck, who will be bounced off of WTVN's mid-morning slot in favor of...local host Joel Riley, who's currently on the schedule from 6-9 PM.
The Riley move to the 9 AM-noon slot allows the station to expand popular afternoon drive host John Corby another hour (3-7 PM), and ABC Radio host Sean Hannity's show moves up to 7-10 PM. Hannity's show took hold in late evenings after the station dumped long-time late night host Steve "Boom Boom" Cannon.
What a relief! WTVN is one of the few talk stations I get (I really live in the boonies), and Beck's insipidities were beginning to grate on my nerves.
