Former KDKA talk show host Wendy Bell who was fired for comments made on social media, has been hired at Talk Radio 1320 WJAS.
She made the announcement on her Facebook page. “America needs common-sense conservatism,” she wrote.
Last fall, Bell was discussing people who deface public monuments when she said, “My easy solution for the park rangers and hopefully snipers who are going to be watching for this is to shoot on sight.”
1320 WJAS is owned by St. Barnabas Broadcasting, which bought the station in November.
“She’s going to be a conservative talk show host, in keeping with the lineup we have right now,” said JD Turco, senior vice president at St. Barnabas Broadcasting. “There’s a lot of conservative talk there. We believe she fits well into that lineup.”
Bell’s new radio show will air Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. till noon and Friday from 9 a.m. to noon on WJAS 1320AM and 99.1 FM and the iHeartRadio app, beginning Jan. 25.
