Clear Channel adds talk to iHeartRadio

[The Straight Story]

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Clear Channel is adding talk shows and listener-generated content to iHeartRadio, expanding the online radio service's offerings beyond music.

Clear Channel, which operates more than 850 terrestrial radio stations as well, said Wednesday that users who update their iHeartRadio apps on the iPhone and Android phones will be able to search for talk shows on those phones. Users can access a test, or "beta" version of iHeartRadio Talk on the Web and can search for talk shows using the mobile app. The full version of the service will be available on mobile phones in September, the company said.

Clear Channel says users can access talk shows such as "Good Morning America," ''Direct from Hollywood" with Ryan Seacrest, Rush Limbaugh's "Rush Daily Update Minute" and TED Talks.

Users will also be able to submit their content that iHeartRadio may feature alongside established shows.
