CORNING - Nationally syndicated conservative radio talk-show host Mike Gallagher will broadcast Tuesday from Centerway Square in Corning as part of a national book-signing tour.

Gallagher's broadcast from 9 a.m. to noon will be followed from 1:30 to 4 p.m. by a book-signing session. His new book, published by HarperCollins of New York City, is "Surrounded by Idiots: Fighting Liberal Lunacy in America."

Gallagher's talk show, syndicated by the Irving, Texas-based Salem Radio Network, has more than 3.25 million listeners, according to his Web site. It is heard locally on WWLZ-AM 820, a station of Backyard Broadcasting in Elmira.

In addition to his radio show, Gallagher is a frequent contributor to Fox News and occasionally a guest host on the cable news station.

Prior to going national in 1998, Gallagher worked at WABC-AM in New York City, at WGY-AM in Albany and WFBC-AM in Greenville, S.C.

He began his radio career as a 17-year-old high school senior in Dayton, Ohio.

The local stop Tuesday is part of a 25-city cross-country bus tour that will see Gallagher in the Williamsport area on Monday and the Albany area on Wednesday.

WWLZ'S morning show, "Seth in the Morning," will be broadcast from Centerway Square from 6 to 9 a.m. Tuesday.

The broadcasts and book-signing are co-sponsored by the Gaffer District Business Association and Storylines Bookstore and Cafe of Watkins Glen, said Andy Parker of Backyard Broadcasting.

Gallagher and his wife, Denise - a Democrat whose heroine is Sen. Hilllary Rodham Clinton - are the parents of four adult sons. They live in New York City and the Dallas area.
