Glenn Beck to replace Al Roney on WGY
WGY, 810 AM has added conservative talk show host Glenn Beck to its morning lineup.
Beck will make his debut on the Albany, N.Y. news/talk station on March 1, broadcasting live from 9am-Noon. He will replace Al Roney in the WGY lineup.
“Glenn has one of the hottest shows in all of radio right now and we simply could not pass up the opportunity to add him to our on-air team,” said Chuck Custer, director of news and programming for WGY. “With Don Weeks, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, you have arguably the biggest names and best talent in the radio business make quick cash. It’s truly a world class lineup.”
Beck had been airing locally on WROW, 590 AM until Feb. 8, when that station dropped its news/talk format in favor of a nostalgia music format.
WGY did not return a phone seeking comment.
