Article in today's Herald says that only WTKK will have Mike Barnicle filling in for what had been Imus.
For other stations, Westwood One offers WFAN's Mike and the Mad Dog

"Westwood One, which syndicated the Imus show, has axed plans to offer radio affiliates WTKK’s Mike Barnicle, who was set to fill in for Imus during his initial two-week suspension. The Herald reported earlier this week that Barnicle was forced to apologize in 2004 for referring to an interracial couple as “mandingo” on his show.
Westwood said in a memo obtained by the Herald that it will instead offer the New York sports radio show “Mike and the Mad Dog” next week. Barnicle will, however, fill in on WTKK."

Maybe this is a tryout for Mike And Mad Dog to go national? Someone would eventually get the slot
of W1's morning show...
