National Broadcast Rolls Into Corning
Melissa Batulis  
     The Crystal City was the epicenter of a national radio broadcast Tuesday.  Conservative talk show host Mike Gallagher hit the airwaves live from Corning Tuesday morning.
    The host of the syndicated show that bears his name is on the road promoting his new book "Surrounded By Idiots:  Fighting Liberal Lunacy In America."
     Fans crowded Centerway Square for a book signing and a peek inside Gallagher's mobile studio, dubbed "The Surrounded By Idiots Express."
     "These are the types of places I wanted to visit.  The publisher said what about Chicago? What about New York?  I said what about Elmira-Corning?  This is a place where we've been heard on the radio for a long time and it's just very gratifying to shake the hands of people who've listened to the show," Gallagher said.
     "I've been listening to him for years and I call in a lot," said Tina Howe of Corning.  "He knows me as 'Tina from Corning' and he remembered me today after I reminded him."
     Gallagher, who says his wife is a liberal democrat, says despite the title, his book is about uniting Americans.
