CINCINNATI - Jerry Springer has been a politician, television news anchorman and host of a raucous TV show. Now he can add radio talk show host to the list.

Springer, 60, will host a politically oriented radio talk show in Cincinnati — where he once served as mayor — and he promises to challenge the Bush administration on issues ranging from Iraq (news - web sites) to Social Security (news - web sites).

"I'm excited about it," Springer said Wednesday in a telephone interview from the Chicago offices of TV's "Jerry Springer Show," which he will continue to host.

Some see the radio show as a springboard for the Democrat's possible return to politics in 2006, either in a run for Ohio governor or a Senate seat, although Springer declined to comment on the issue Wednesday.

The article goes on to say that they would like to get the radio show played in other cities.
