NAM Radio now reaches 71 stations, 90 timeslots

WASHINGTON, D.C., October 27, 2006 – The National Association of Manufacturers’ public affairs radio program, America’s Business with Mike Hambrick is now being aired on 71 radio stations around the country on weekends. In some markets, the program is being aired twice – once on Saturday and once on Sunday – on the same station. The program is being aired 90 times each weekend.

In the Washington, D.C., area, America’s Business is broadcast on WTNT-AM 570 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 5. Additional radio stations are scheduled to begin airing the program later this month.

“America’s Business is a balanced public forum for discussion of the critical issues confronting business,” said NAM President John Engler, former three-term Governor of Michigan. “Too often, the general media either give superficial coverage to important business matters or present them in a biased context. We will put a spotlight on the really crucial challenges facing our economy.”

America’s Business host Mike Hambrick is a veteran of TV and radio whose name and voice are familiar to Washingtonians. He anchored the 6 & 11 PM newscast at WJLA-TV for four years and was co-anchor and reporter for WRC-TV for four years. He also served as anchor and reporter for TV stations in Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Dallas and Phoenix. More recently, he wrote, produced and anchored “Freedom Line With Mike Hambrick,” a two-hour national weekly radio news and issues magazine program.

“America’s Business talks to policy makers in Washington and factory managers on shop floors,” said Hambrick. “We talk about soaring energy prices, runaway litigation, failing schools, unaffordable health insurance, and a level international playing field. Anything and everything that impacts the way America does business is fair game.”

“This is a first class public affairs program and I urge everyone to give it a listen,” said Engler
