Business Wire
Salem Media Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: SALM) announced today that
Salem Radio Network (SRN) is extending its agreement with top
national radio host Larry Elder through 2022. Larry built a loyal
local following in Los Angeles over twenty years with KABC, and in
2016 Salem Radio Network picked up The Larry Elder Show and
syndicated him nationwide. Elder is listed as one of Talkers
Magazine’s “Heavy Hundred” most important radio shows in America
with nearly one million weekly listeners. His program is carried by
over 350 affiliates.
Elder—whose program airs weekdays in the 6pm-9pm Eastern time
slot—is known as “the Sage from South Central,” and he is unafraid
to take on liberals and the Black Lives Matter movement with common
sense.
“I can’t think of a better fit for The Larry Elder Show than
Salem Radio Network,” said Elder. “Our national show has grown
astronomically in the last three years, and I’m both thrilled and
honored to continue broadcasting with the Salem Radio Family.”
“Larry has been a huge hit for the Salem Radio Network,” said
Senior Vice President, Salem Radio Network and Spoken Word Formats
Phil Boyce. “He is a leader in conservative thought, and listeners
all across the country have made an appointment with him every day
to hear a voice of reason to cut through the noise of a world gone
mad. It has been an honor and privilege to work with a talk radio
legend like Larry these last three years, and we’re thrilled to
continue our relationship.”
