OK, where are the liberal presentors???

Here's the new WOW weekday lineup:

The "Bob & Tom" morning show will be the sole holdover from KRKQ's old programming.

Glenn Beck is a Philadelphia-based commentator heard on more than 100 stations nationwide. He is described as "a Mormon whose politics lean toward libertarian but also promotes traditional family values." Farkas labeled him the "heir apparent to Rush Limbaugh." Beck will broadcast live from Des Moines during the Iowa caucuses.

Preston Daniels will be host of his talk show with KRKQ veteran Kim Chase.

Sean Hannity, the conservative Fox News pundit, will move to this slot as soon as contract negotiations are resolved, Farkas said. He is currently heard on KWKY 1150 AM.

Jerry Westemeyer and the Round Guy (Steve Pilchen) will focus on high school sports. Round Guy also will continue his morning gig on KGGO 94.9 FM.

Michael Savage is the San Francisco-based radio host of "Savage Nation." In August he was fired from his MSNBC cable TV gig for an anti-gay outburst in which he told a caller to "get AIDS and die."
