Nationwide Howie? Via Tom Taylor On Radio:
>>Boston-based talk host Howie Carr signs with Tony Garcia’s new Global Media Services. Garcia calls him “an icon and legend in New England, and I look forward to partnering with him to bring his unique views on politics, pop culture and society to the entire nation.” Howie’s current affiliate lineup is 15 stations. Carr is literally a survivor – notorious gangster Whitey Bulger once put out a contract on him, in a story covered by CBS-TV’s “60 Minutes.” Carr was inducted into the Chicago-based National Radio Hall of Fame in 2008 and he’s won a National Magazine Award (he writes a column for the Boston Herald). Carr’s heard in Boston from 3-7pm on Entercom’s talk WRKO (680), which is the station that fought so hard to keep him from jumping to Greater Media. Before moving to Denver to work with RegionalHelpWanted.com, Garcia led the Charlotte-based syndication of Bob & Sheri.
Will start a July thread soon or just continue on this one. Howie says:
>>Filling in for @marklevinshow tomorrow night! Hear me on XM Patriot ch. 125 6-9 or on WRKO 7-10.
