Statements Issued By Mancow Muller and Talk Radio Network FM
July 13, 2006 - Chicago, IL - The following was issued today by Erich "Mancow" Muller:
"I've been asked by many people why I'm no longer at Emmis Broadcasting's Q101-FM. I was informed by Q101's management that they want to focus narrowly on music and only music. My loyal listeners know the Mancow Morning Madhouse is about much more than that. I talk about issues of the day. I have opinions. I'm syndicated across the country. I'm a regular guest on Fox & Friends. My vision is to take that positive Mancow message across America from a home base in Chicago. It is my belief that Q101 didn't want to participate in that.
"I am currently in negotiations to find a new Chicago home for the show. In the meantime my syndicator, Talk Radio Network FM, is setting up a Chicago studio and we will begin broadcasting to syndicate stations next week."
The following was issued today by Mancow's syndicator, Mark Masters, chief executive officer of Talk Radio Network FM:
Following the events of 9/11/01, Mancow restructured his show making it all about entertainment, pop culture, political satire and substance rather than what other FM morning shows do, which is often a form of audio voyeurism. Before Talk Radio Network FM signed its syndication agreement with Mancow, we did a lot of homework and determined that he is both FCC-safe and advertising-friendly, as demonstrated by the more than 25 national brand advertisers who have used Mancow as a safe haven for advertising since 2004. As he has broadened the content of the show, his ratings have grown exponentially. We are committed to the continued aggressive expansion of Mancow's syndication.
