"Springer Pulls the Plug on Radio Show"
CINCINNATI (AP) - Jerry Springer has ended his syndicated radio show after nearly two years, saying he's too busy with other projects that developed after his stint on ABC's "Dancing With the Stars."

Springer made no mention in the opening minutes Tuesday that the show would be his last, instead launching into a critique of what he called President Bush's "runaway presidency that has so destabilized the Middle East while at the same time endangering America."

Later, he joked with his "Team Springer" sidekicks, saying he hoped they found jobs, and told one caller he might consider running for office someday.

Although it was the last of his live shows, reruns will be aired the rest of the week while he gets ready for his daughter's wedding Saturday, Springer said.

3. Good riddance
His show was a borefest. I don't know how he kept it going that long.

He is an opportunist, always looking out for Jerry first and only.

He'll never run for office, he'd get mangled at the polls.

5. actually he was mayor of Cincinatti til he paid for a hooker with a
check. He's a greedy opportunist. Yeah, there are people in the world who do worse things. But, I'm so glad we got Stephanie Miller on the radio in Chicago now.
