G Accelerate Networks inks a long-term agreement with the "Lou Dobbs Financial Reports" for advertising sales, affiliate sales and distribution. Launching on April 18, the Lou Dobbs Financial Reports will deliver three 60-second reports each weekday. The first report airs prior to the opening bell on Wall Street, with Dobbs' forecast on how the markets will open. The midday report features a current market snapshot of the day, and in the third he recaps the market close with top stories from the day and a look to tomorrow's open.

Dobbs is well renowned for his financial expertise and a broadcasting career that spans more than 40 years. This deal reunites the successful Higgins and Dobbs radio team that originally launched the Lou Dobbs Financial Reports.

"Lou is uniquely adept at analyzing the stock market and capsulizing his findings into 60-seconds of compelling stock market intelligence," stated G Accelerate President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Higgins. "His comprehension of markets and Wall Street, particularly at times of volatility and uncertainty, is incomparable. I'm delighted, personally and professionally, that Lou has entrusted G Accelerate Networks with the syndication of his daily financial reports."

"With Lou Dobbs Financial Reports radio stations will get the frequent market updates their listeners want -- and need," added Higgins. "In three daily 60-second fresh soundbites, Lou captures, conveys, and summarizes information and insights that entice listeners to tune in for updates throughout the day. Plus, stations have an opportunity to secure new local revenue from advertisers in the financial news category, a very affluent and desirable audience."

"Jim and I go back to the original launch of the daily financial reports many years ago," noted Dobbs. "There isn't anyone other than Jim who I trust and believe in to generate affiliate and ad sales success. I'm looking forward to working with Jim and his team as we grow our affiliated radio partnerships, coast to coast."
