Peter Boyles will launch a new morning radio show Monday on
Salem Communication’s KNUS 710 AM, according to The Denver Post.
The controversial talk-show host, booted from Clear
Channel's KHOW after an incident of workplace violence last month, will be on
the air 6-9 a.m. with an additional hour online only, 9-10 a.m.
"He's a legend," said KNUS VP and general manager
Brian Taylor, who hired Boyles for the morning slot. "He really cares
about wanting to speak for his audience."
Boyles cited what he called a Zen expression to express how
he hopes the smaller KNUS will compete against his former station, KHOW:
"We will be the fish that swallowed the whale."
Current morning host Steve Kelley's show will move to
afternoons.
Boyles who started in Denver
as a traffic reporter, and later became a morning disc jockey on KLAK before
becoming a talk show host on KWBZ, later moving to KOA. He moved to KHOW in
1993.
