Cumulus Media has announced it has signed Mark Levin to a contract extension to continue his daily 6-9pm Eastern syndicated talk show on Westwood One and Cumulus’ Podcast Network. Levin will also develop an original podcast for the company.
The new deal replaces the “Lifetime extension” that Levin signed with the company in 2016 that ran through the end of 2025. Levin has been syndicated since 2006 after beginning his radio career hosting a weekend show at WABC New York in 2002. The attorney had previously been a regular guest on Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity’s programs.
Levin stated, “This has been my radio home for 23 years, and I am more excited than ever – especially during these tumultuous and historic times – to continue my relationship with my first-rate broadcast partners for many years to come. I understand my obligation is to serve the millions of patriotic Americans in the audience. I am blessed to do what I do, and I am committed every day to providing detailed analyses of current events along with historic context, commentary, and my in-depth perspectives to deliver the very best broadcasting I am able to share with our many listeners.”
Westwood One President and Cumulus Media EVP/Corporate Strategy & Development Collin Jones added, “Mark is a powerful and influential voice with an incredible ability to establish strong relationships with his listeners while driving tremendous results for his advertising partners. Mark has been dubbed ‘The Great One’ for his ability to concisely break down the day’s most significant topics, and we are thrilled to grow our partnership with him for years to come.”
