ATLANTA , Ga - Conservative talk radio host Neal Boortz is
retiring after four decades at the microphone and being replaced by
former GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain.
Boortz said during his show Monday his last day will be Jan. 21,
2013, the day of the presidential inauguration.
The 67-year-old Boortz said he is in good health and plans to
enjoy retirement by traveling with his wife. They plan to spend
eight months on the road after his retirement.
Boortz's show is syndicated across the country through Atlanta's
WSB radio. His show draws about 6 million listeners on 230 radio
stations.
He said his show has been "an absolute joy."
Cain, an Atlanta businessman and radio show host, dropped out of
the presidential race in December amid allegations of sexual
improprieties, which he denied.
The Neal Boortz Show can be heard from 9 am to 11 am on Newsradio 1330 KNSS.
