Imus in the Morning to be Simulcast On the Only Network Dedicated to America’s Heartland
RFD-TV Reaches 30 Million Homes and has Built a Loyal, Growing Fan Base in all 50 States in Just 7 Years
(November 14, 2007 New York, NY & Nashville, TN) - Don Imus and Rural Media Group, Inc. signed a 5-year agreement to simulcast the popular Imus In The Morning program exclusively on RFD-TV and RFD HD. The announcement was made today by Patrick Gottsch, Founder & President of Rural Media Group, Inc.
Imus is bringing his team back to the air including newsman Charles McCord. The show will air live on weekdays from 6-9am (EST). Imus in the Evening, a rebroadcast of the morning’s program, will air in primetime on RFD HD from 6-9pm and will be featured on video-on-demand enabling west coast viewers and millions of fans to experience the show at their convenience. As previously announced, Imus in the Morning will be broadcast on the radio from 6-10am by Citadel’s WABC and will be syndicated across the country by ABC Radio Network.
“Don’s passion and understanding of rural America fits in so well with our on-going effort to bridge city and country folks with this cable channel”, stated Patrick Gottsch. “The Imus Ranch Special that aired on RFD-TV this past summer, which focused on the history and good work being performed by the Imus family’s non-profit organization for kids with cancer, was a huge hit. We expect the same overwhelmingly positive response from our audience with the addition of Imus In The Morning and Imus In The Evening to our program schedule.”
