Oil THE BEATWEOL loses Beck, gets IngrahamListeners of Elyria's WEOL-AM 930 this week may have been a bit confused.On Monday and Tuesday, the 9 a.m. to noon slot was filled with “The Glenn Beck Show, as it has been since early 2005. But when listeners turned on their radios Wednesday to hear the opinionated, funny, conservative talker do an Election Day postmortem, he wasn’t there.Beck had been replaced by fellow conservative talker Laura Ingraham.We decided to carry him through Tuesday, WEOL News Director Craig Adams said Friday.Beck's show was picked up by his old Cleveland radio home, WTAM-AM 1100, which dropped him three and a half years ago in favor of the jerry Springer Show.The move back to WTAM was the decision of that station’s new management team, according to Adams. And that left the Elyria station with abig chunk of airtime to fill.“When a syndicator has the opportunity to place a show on a station in the heart of a metropolitan area, they prefer to do that, Adams said.Ingraham, who is syndicated by Talk Radio Network, will be heard in the 9 a.m. to noon Monday-to-Friday time slot on WEOL.WEOL signed a one-year contract to air Ingraham..We thought it would be great to have a woman’s perspective on the air, Adams said. “We liked Glenn, but we like Laura, too.”WEOL-AM 930 is owned by the Elyria Lorain Broadcasting Co., whose parent firm, the Lorain County Publishing and Printing Co., owns The Chron-icle-Teiegram.—Steve Fogarty
