Report: Glenn Beck To Localize BlazeRadio

In the wake of the news that Rush Limbaugh will be returning toWPHT 1210 AM, Molly Eichel at the Philly Daily News is reporting she’s learned that Glenn Beck will give his Internet-only TheBlaze Radio Network a Philadelphia feel by adding local news and weather twice per hour and traffic four times per hour, provided by partnerships with local news and information services.

Philly is the first market for the localized expansion, Beck wants to move to more markets.

Online listeners be able to catch it on TheBlaze.com/Philly and iHeartRadio starting Nov. 4.

Beck will continue to broadcast on IQ 106.9 until that station's sale is finalized. After the sale, TheBlaze Radio Network will be his exclusive home in the Philadelphia market and he will no longer be on terrestrial radio.

To kick everything off, TheBlaze will take over the programming at WWIQ 106.9 FM (where he has been stationed since being dropped from WPHT 1210 AM in 2010) for the week starting Monday.
