Clark Howard, who has a syndicated radio show on personal finance that airs across the country, is taking is show to television, reports Rodney Ho of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Ho writes, “He’s not the first personal finance guru to make the jump from radio to cable TV. Nashville-based Dave Ramsey, who champions no-debt living, has had a prime time show on Fox Business News for about a year.
“Howard hopes his gig on the weekends will be successful enough to parlay into a weekday show as well. He noted that fellow radio host Glenn Beck’s payday went sky high once he got a TV gig, first with Headline News and next month, Fox News.
“During a rehearsal last week for one of his promos, Howard took out a dollar bill and pulled at it. ‘Was that too Crazy Eddie?’ he asked producer Scott Tufts, referencing a wacky sales guy for a now defunct electronics chain.”

I first heard Clark Howard on Atlanta local radio in 1989. He was good then and he's even better now.
Hope he brings his "customer no service" feature to the air. He has a soft-show way of skewering rip-offs and deadends that strikes me as just right for these hard times.
I'm too cheap for cable TV but I look forward to his you tube clips.
