Opie & Anthony / CBS Radio rumors continue

Opie and Anthony on XM Satellite RadioThe rumor mill isn't letting this one die. Rumors of Opie and Anthony being syndicated to terrestrial radio - specifically on some of CBS Radio's East Coast markets - still are buzzing about.

Originally, word had it that O&A were to replace David Lee Roth on Howard's old home of K-Rock. But since then reportedly talks had stalled.

Now Inside Radio reports that O&A would actually do their show from CBS Radio studios in NYC, but would continue to broadcast on XM Satellite Radio. Interesting. Considering they are the only on-air XM radio personalities in the 57th Street studios, this could be plausible. UPDATE: I'm an idiot. Ron & Fezzy broadcast from the same location.
