Coming Live To The Beehive State!
Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a hoax. No longer will you have to be tied to your computer to catch a web stream of his show. No longer will you have to wonder which shows you are going to get during the Saturday and Sunday re-broadcast. Coming soon, live on KLO Radio, 5 days a week, the Hugh Hewitt nationally syndicated talk show will be yours, courtesy of the airwaves.
All I can say, is it's about time.
Welcome to the Wasatch Front, Hugh.
For those who have no idea who this hero to the blogosphere is, his bio is here, or you can just read it below:
Hugh Hewitt is the host of a nationally syndicated radio show heard in more than 70 cities nationwide, and a Professor of Law at Chapman University Law School, where he teaches Constitutional Law. He is the author of Blog: Understanding the Information Reformation That's Changing Your World as well as the New York Times best selling author of If It's Not Close, They Can't Cheat. He has written 4 other books. Hewitt has received 3 Emmys during his decade of work as co-host of the PBS Los Angeles affiliate KCET's nightly news and public affairs show Life & Times. He is a weekly columnist for The Daily Standard, the online edition of The Weekly Standard. He can be reached at hugh@hughhewitt.com.
Lets give him a warm welcome to the valley. He will be a breath of fresh air that hopefully will blow the inversion out of the valley in the coming winter months.

That is great news! I am very happy for you because I know how much you've worked at being the chairman of Bring Hugh to Utah comittee.

I join with you in welcoming Hugh Hewitt to Utah. When I heard the good news, I sent the following to KLO radio (CC'd to Hugh Hewitt):
"Wow, I have been hoping for this for literally years! I have been listening to Hugh Hewitt on the internet for at least 4 years. That worked fine, as long as I was in my office, but now to have Hugh on the air is great! I have written to the radio stations before, encouraging them to make this move. Personally, prefer listening to Hugh Hewitt over ANY other radio talk show host.
I just couldn't stand the guy who was formerly in the Hugh Hewitt time slot (Jerry Doyle). He would go off on one of his Brooklyn Rants, and completely lose me. To me the Doyle show was not entertaining at all, and no fun to listen to. FOIL DOYLE! He was so negative all the time - It was a downer.
Hugh Hewitt on the other hand is fun, engaging, and intelligent. He never loses his cool! He talks with notable guests -- and oft' times to those with whom he does not agree. He is respectful of others, and knows how to disagree -- without being disagreeable. He cherishes and defends Judeo-Christian values, and knows that to have a strong nation, it takes more being politically right, one must also be morally right as well."
I'm glad to have Hugh Hewitt live in Utah. Thanks for your efforts in helping to bring Hugh live to Utah.

Thanks, David. Utah blogger, are you? Hhmm. I sense another alliance on the horizon.
