Compass Media Networks adds Cox Media Group's W291CI (Power 106.1) in Jacksonville, FL to the "DeDe in the Morning" family from 5-10am weekdays and Saturday mornings with "DeDe's Weekend Kickback." The show is now heard in over 60 markets including Dallas, Chicago, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, New Haven, Austin, Oklahoma City,and Toledo. This is the first CMG outlet to add the program to its line-up.

CMG Director of Branding and Programming for Orlando & Jacksonville Elroy Smith stated, "I have followed DeDe's career since her days in Chicago at Windy 100.3 and her riveting co-anchoring of the syndicated show with the late Doug Banks. To see her evolution brings me so much joy. She is charismatic, relatable to her core audience, sassy, honest, vulnerable, fun, and the epitome of a professional. Power 106.1 is excited to be one of the many affiliates airing such a great morning show."

DeDe McGuire added, "It has been a dream of mine to be back in Jacksonville and here we are. Thank you, Elroy Smith and CMG, for your belief in our show. We can't wait to join the Power 106.1 family and are ready to make Jacksonville laugh out loud every morning."
