Chicago-based talk host Joe Walsh will join Salem Media Group's network lineup in the 9pm to midnight ET time slot, replacing Steve Deace on February 20. Walsh, a former U.S. Congressman, comes to the network from co-owned News/Talk WIND-AM (560 The Answer), where he holds down the 5-7pm slot. Walsh will continue with the local show, and add the national show later in the evening.

"From the time I left Congress and picked up a microphone, my fight has always been to get America back," said Walsh. "I'm excited, and grateful, to continue that fight, now with a larger microphone."

"We have been watching Joe work locally in Chicago and have seen outstanding development. His audience there continues to grow, and we felt he would continue to do well on the national stage," said Salem Senior VP Phil Boyce. "Joe is a courageous and fearless warrior on the conservative side, who encourages his audience to take a strong stand for what is right."
