Hughley, Radio One Renew Vows
• D.L. Hughley and Reach Media have mutually applied pens to paper, re-upping Hughley to a new multi-year agreement. Hughley’s nationally syndicated radio show, co-hosted by Jasmine Sanders, runs weekdays from 3-7pm ET and has over 60 affiliates, including recently added affiliates KZMJ (Majic 94.5)/Dallas, WTLC-FM/Indianapolis and WOSL/Cincinnati.
As the ink was drying, Hughley stated, “I’m excited that my radio show continues to grow on a national basis, but the honesty and interaction with my audience make it the ‘biggest local and personal show in radio.’ Extending the relationship with Reach Media gives me the opportunity to address what’s important to people I care about in an entertaining, but meaningful way — making a difference in their day!”
David Kantor, who doubles as CEO of Urban One’s Radio One division and Reach Media, added, “As one of the most important voices in radio, D.L. is totally in tune with what the African-American listener wants addressed — and to be said. He’s established himself as the voice, with a humorous edge, but conviction and sensibility to stimulate a dialogue.” For more info, contact Marty Raab at Marty.Raab@ReachMediaInc.com.
