Report: CBS Radio is Courting CC's Ryan Seacrest

RADIO ONLINE | Thursday, June 10, 2010

The big rumor making the rounds is the possibility that Clear Channel's Ryan Seacrest could make the jump to CBS Radio when his current deal with KIIS-FM/Los Angeles, where he does mornings, expires in November of this year. Seacrest was seen at a recent Lakers basketball game talking with CBS President/CEO Les Moonves.

Speculation that a move to CBS would include a daytime talk show for Seacrest and even a move to a CBS Radio-owned outlet in Los Angeles. According to a report from LARadio.com, a "TV deal became reality for Ryan and CBS, he would also bring his morning radio show, his syndicated program, along with his countdown shows."
