Legal correspondent Amy Dash will begin contributing to CBS Sports Radio and WFAN-FM (Sports Radio 101.9 and Sports Radio 66AM) as a legal analyst. Dash will be a featured guest across several shows on CBS Sports Radio as well as The Fan to offer her expert legal opinion and analysis of news stories at the intersection of sports and the law. Dash currently serves as an anchor for the Law Newz Network and a Special Legal Correspondent for nationally syndicated daytime crime show "Crime Watch Daily with Chris Hansen."

"I am thrilled to contribute to CBS Sports Radio and WFAN, working alongside the station's top-notch talent, producers and management," said Dash. "I am especially looking forward to bringing legal straight talk to passionate sports fans. A high profile case can sideline an all-star on championship day or incite a national dialogue about patriotism and civil rights. The law is its own sport and fans who understand it can help shape the future of the game. I hope audiences will join me in debating the biggest cases in sports."

"Now more than ever it's the right time to add a legal analyst to keep CBS Sports Radio listeners informed of the latest legal issues affecting the teams and players we report on, follow and celebrate," added CBS Sports Radio Director of Programming Eric Spitz. "Amy will offer her keen insight and commentary on everything from breaking legal news involving professional and college athletes to fantasy sports. We're excited for her to provide this additional level of coverage."

Dash was formerly a reporter for CBS NY where her original reporting was used on the "CBS Evening News" and inspired an episode of "48 Hours." She won Emmy Awards for coverage of the 2013 MetroNorth Train Derailment and Hurricane Sandy. While at WCBS, her reporting earned two Emmy Awards and six Emmy nominations, including a national nomination. She also broke news on several national stories.
