Alan Burke

Alan S. Burke (September 15, 1922 – August 25, 1992) was an American conservative television and radio talk show host who was on the air primarily in New York City from 1966 to 1969 on WNEW-TV.

After his show was cancelled he moved to Boca Raton, Florida, where he continued to work in broadcasting.

[citation needed] Burke had programs on various Miami radio stations during much of the 1970s and 1980s, where he continued to employ his confrontational style.

Burke was sufficiently well known in the late 1980s to get a guest spot on The Morton Downey Jr. Show, where he, Downey, Tom Leykis, Lester Kinsolving and Bob Grant traded barbs.

[citation needed] On June 25, 1994, Howard Stern reflected upon how he and a friend watched Alan Burke, "the guy who yelled at people."
