Aww, shucky ducky! Herman Cain is returning to the airwaves as a radio talk show host, The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
Cain will take over for longtime syndicated talk show host Neal Boortz, who will be retiring on January 21, 2013 after being on the air for four decades.
The AJC writes:
Cain, a 66-year-old former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, joined WSB in 2008 as an evening talk show host until early 2011, when he decided to run for president. His bid ended in December. Since January, he has provided daily commentaries on Boortz’s show and has continued to sub in for Boortz.
Cain’s radio footprint will now be national. Boortz is heard on about 240 radio stations. Talkers magazine, which tracks talk radio, estimates Boortz draws more than six million listeners a week, tied with Laura Ingraham for seventh.
“For all practical purposes,” Cain said on the air, “I am done with politics. Essentially, I wanted to continue to express my views and help educate what’s going on in this country.”
