WIBA-AM (News/Talk 1310) Madison, WI, has announced the debut of a new midday program, "The Dan O'Donnell Show," effective immediately. O'Donnell will air weekdays from 9-11am and orginates from iHeartMedia's News/Talk WISN Milwaukee, where he made its debut in 2017. The former investigative reporter and news anchor shares his in-depth analysis and opinions, driven by a commitment to examine all sides of a story or issue. His program will continue to feature the latest national and local headlines.

"Dan O'Donnell has made his mark with a hard-hitting show that is factually based, providing the foundation for Dan's cutting-edge opinions, insights and analysis," said WISN Program Director Jerry Bott. "He's tough, yet fair, and Dan explores all elements of current events, politics, public policy and pop culture with unmatched energy."

"Conservative talk listeners in the Madison area will find another great show and personality on News/Talk WIBA 1310," said added iHeartMedia Madison Market President Keith Bratel. "We are excited and look forward to Dan's daily insight and broadcasts."

O'Donnell is best known for his extensive coverage of the 2007 Steven Avery murder trial in Manitowoc, Wisconsin and subsequent iHeartRadio original podcast, "Rebutting A Murderer" following the 2015 Netflix special "Making a Murderer." Prior to joining iHeartMedia, O'Donnell was a news anchor with Journal Broadcasting for almost 12 years. O'Donnell also served as a Wisconsin Correspondent for FOX News Radio, HLN's "The Nancy Grace Show," ABC Radio News, Wall Street Journal Radio Network and CBS Radio News.
