Former CBS affiliate KMOV-TV/ST. LOUIS news anchor LARRY CONNERS is joining EPIC STL News-Talk KLJY-HD2-KNBS-K270BW (NEWSTALKSTL)/ST. LOUIS as host of a radio show, a daily commentary, and a streaming video show. CONNERS will host "THE LARRY CONNERS USA DAILY REPORT" at 6p (CT) and "THE CONNERS COMMENTARY" at 12:03p and 3:30p weekdays, while a video show, "LARRY CONNERS USA," will stream on the station's RUMBLE channel noon-2p with an audio replay 1-3a.
“The fabric of my journalistic soul still requires that I am fair, but now, I freely express my opinions.” said CONNERS, who was fired by KMOV in 2013 after claiming in a FACEBOOK post that his tax problems with the IRS were possibly linked to a contentious interview he conducted with President OBAMA. “I am thrilled to join the NEWSTALKSTL family and be part of the city’s newest and fastest-growing radio station.”
“This is the first, major change to our weekday line up since signing on a year and a half ago. That speaks to how significant we feel adding LARRY is,” said President of Programming JEFF ALLEN. “LARRY CONNERS is a strong, local, conservative voice that needs to be heard.”
“It’s pretty awesome to see how far our station has come in just 18 months,” said Brand Manager TONY COLOMBO. “And adding LARRY to the team will help us continue that growth as we start a new year!”
