ABC Radio Networks has changed its name to Citadel Media. "This evolution provides us a great opportunity to expand our legacy, which we have developed within the heritage of the ABC name," said President Jim Robinson. "In the last 25 years, our radio network has been owned by Capital Cities, The Walt Disney Company and now Citadel Broadcasting. One constant throughout this history of change has been the passion and dedication of our people to create innovative programming for our affiliates and advertising partners."
Citadel Media and its radio networks reach about 110 million listeners across 4,400 stations each week. The company will continue to represent such programming as ABC News Radio and ESPN Radio as well as syndicate News/Talk, Hispanic and Urban formats with some of the leading radio personalities on the air.
"Across our organization, there is an enhanced focus on delivering breakthrough solutions to our partners," Robinson added. "We recently helped pioneer the industry's most advanced copy splitting capabilities with our XDS rollout and our sales and programming teams are producing a client tool designed to deliver coveted lifestyle groups including Baby Boomer Elites, Mobile Moms and Generation Y Women."
In the past year, the company has grown its portfolio of programming and continues its push to deliver branded partnerships. Recent additions include Governor Mike Huckabee, Perez Hilton, Joe Scarborough, Brian McKnight, Rick Dees and Tom Kent.
