United Stations Radio Networks (USRN) said Tuesday that it would begin distribution of "The Roe Report," a short form weekday news and commentary feature created and hosted by talk radio host Roe Conn. The program is best described as a mix of news, commentary, pop culture and entertainment stories in a brief and fast-paced format.

"The Roe Report" and its broad scope, wide appeal and sometimes humorous approach has been airing on affiliates WABC-AM/New York, KABC-AM/Los Angeles and WLS-AM/Chicago.

USRN Chairman/CEO Nick Verbitsky commented, "Roe Conn has proven himself to be not only a great local broadcaster, but a guy with great instincts for what the whole country is thinking and talking about. Frankly, we see Roe Conn as one of the bright spots in the future of Talk Radio and we're thrilled to be able to grow our menu of services in that format with Roe in the spotlight."

Conn added, "The team at United Stations and I share a common vision about what both affiliates and their audiences want, and I'm looking forward to growing our national broadcasting footprint together."

Conn is a native of Chicago and the afternoon host on WLS-AM there. He's also a regular contributor to ABC Radio News political and event coverage and has been a frequent guest on broadcast and cable news programs and served as a commentator and fill-in host for CNN and HLN. (11-03-09)
