American Urban Radio Networks adds "The Doug Banks Show" to its program lineup. The program, featuring Doug Banks, DeDe McGuire and comedian Rudy Rush, is one of the longest running Urban syndicated program, airing afternoons from 3-7pm. AURN will now distribute, sell and market Banks' show after more than twelve years with ABC Radio, now Citadel Media.

"We are thrilled to be working with Doug Banks and to be able to offer stations across the country this music driven afternoon drive show that showcases the wonderfully talented Banks and his team" said President of Program Operations and Affiliations Jerry Lopes. "It's great, entertaining radio and they're not afraid to tackle the issues of the day through their popular Adult Conversation segment. Doug, DeDe and Rudy offer the perfect mix to conversations ranging from romance to finance."

"We're delighted to now be part of the AURN family and look forward to growing our listener base" added Doug Banks. "One thing I can promise, no one will work any harder than DeDe, Rudy and I in bringing more fun and excitement to afternoons in urban adult radio. Along the way we hope to educate our listeners by shining a spotlight on the critical issues impacting the African American community."
