New York, NY  June 6, 2007 - Katz Media Group (KMG) has announced the launch of a new unit which will focus exclusively on providing Radio marketing and media solutions for political candidate and issue advertisers.  Genelle Niblack has been appointed VP/Director of Political Sales & Strategy for this new unit.  Her responsibilities will include overseeing political network sales and strategy for all of KMG Radio.

"The combination of KMG's 3,000+ represented radio stations provides political advertisers with unparalleled access to customized demographic and lifestyle radio networks that can be purchased either in their entirety or on a state-by-state basis," said Stu Olds, CEO of Katz Media Group. "Genelle's knowledge of the radio marketplace makes her the perfect guide and an invaluable resource for all political advertisers."

"Radio captured over eight percent of the $3 billion total advertising dollars spent in the 2006 campaigns, and we anticipate higher numbers in the upcoming 2008 election year, in light of radio's 95% reach of the 18+ demo," said Genelle Niblack.
