Clear Channel's WHJJ, the progressive talk station in Providence, RI, has an ad on All Access for a local talk show host. The ad does not mention this is (currently) a progressive talk station. The station carries an interesting combination of local programs, programs from Air America Radio and Imus:
530a-1000 Imus (Westwood One)
1000-1200 Springer (AAR)
1200-300p Franken (AAR)
300p-600p Arlene Violet (Local)
600p-800p Randi Rhodes (AAR)
800p-1000 Geoff Charles (Local)
1000-100a Mike Malloy (AAR)
Arlene Violet is a former RI Attorney General, who is on the Talkers Magazine Heavy 100 List. The ad does not say whether they are looking to go local in an additional daypart or replace a current local host. WHJJ has seen a dramatic drop in their 12+ AQH share since the 04 summer book.
As sometimes happens, the ad leaves out a contact name, as well as email and snail mail addresses for you to send your stuff if you're interested. I'm trying to imagine what part of talk show host requires lifting 40 pounds; maybe they expect you to take a lot of stuff home to study. And reel to reel tape recorders? How quaint!
