Erickson Inks With Compass Media Networks

• Talk host Erick Erickson, a fixture on CMG’s 95.5 WSB Radio/Atlanta for more than a decade proudly announced that The Erick Erickson Show has been launched into national syndication in partnership with Compass Media Networks. Erickson has built a national following as a political television contributor, former guest-host for The Rush Limbaugh Show, and recently with the self-syndication of The Erick Erickson Show across a growing terrestrial radio network of over 30 markets.

“We are thrilled to embark on this next chapter of our growth and are so appreciative of our friends and partners who have supported us,” said Erickson, who recently inked a multi-year contract extension with Cox Media Group to continue on WSB Radio weekdays from noon to 3pm ET.

“In the four years I’ve worked with Erick, I’ve been astounded by his talent, his understanding of media and the marketplace and his ability to build a business,” said John McConnell, advisor to The Erick Erickson Show. “Erick is true to his beliefs, does not conform to the talking points, is thoroughly refreshing and it is for those reasons he is often the most-listened-to local talk show host in the US.  Moving to the bigger stage, he will bring tremendous success to those that join him.”

Peter Kosann, CEO/Founder of Compass Media Networks, noted, “At a critical time in our nation’s history and just as the public starts to turn their attention to the upcoming Presidential election cycle, we are thrilled to bring Erick Erickson to the national stage. Erick is a winner by every metric and we are lucky to call him our friend and colleague.”
