Salem Launches 'The Scott Jennings Show' – A New Weapon in the Fight for Truth
CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Salem Media Group, Inc. (OTCQX: SALM) is proud to announce the launch of 'The Scott Jennings Show', a new daily program that adds a powerful voice to the frontlines of the conservative movement. Beginning Monday, July 14, the show will air weekdays from 2:00 to 3:00 PM ET on the Salem Radio Network (SRN) and be available on demand via the Salem Podcast Network (SPN). Jennings, known to millions as the rare conservative who wins debates inside the lion's den of CNN, will bring his signature fire and facts to the Salem lineup. The program replaces The Jack Posobiec Show in the SRN live broadcast slot, while Posobiec continues as a force on SPN with exclusive podcast content. 'We're going on offense,' Jennings said. 'Every day, I'll take calls, interview big names, and take the fight directly to the liberal machine. It's time to bust the narratives and bring back some plain old common sense.' 'Scott Jennings is a disruptor,' said Phil Boyce, Senior VP at Salem. 'He's the Lone Ranger of the CNN panel, armed with facts and fearless in delivery. He doesn't just survive in hostile territory — he dominates. Now, with a national platform on Salem, Scott becomes a daily fixture in the battle to save the country.' A former White House Special Assistant to President George W. Bush and veteran of four presidential campaigns, Jennings is a strategic insider with real-world political firepower. His upcoming book, 'A Revolution of Common Sense: How Donald Trump Stormed Washington and Fought for Western Civilization,' is set to be released this November and is already generating buzz for its insider perspective on Trump's return to power. A Kentucky native, Jennings lives in Prospect with his wife and four sons — and somehow also manages three dogs and 35 chickens. Follow him on X: @ScottJenningsKY.

"Chicago's Morning Answer" cuts Amy Jacobson
Longtime Chicago radio personality Amy Jacobson is out at the conservative station WIND-AM. Why it matters: Jacobson is well-known to Chicago media consumers, most recently co-hosting "Chicago's Morning Answer" with Dan Proft for almost 16 years. She was last heard on Tuesday morning. What they're saying: "Due to staffing reductions, today was my last day on the air," Jacobson wrote on social media Tuesday night, before promoting her new podcast. Axios reached out to Salem Media Group, but did not hear back. Flashback: Jacobson started as a news reporter for NBC Chicago in 1996, but was fired in 2007 after a rival station captured video of her poolside with Craig Stebic, who was a suspect in the disappearance of his wife, Lisa. Jacobson sued CBS and others for libel. After a state appeals court ruled against Jacobson, she appealed to the Illinois Supreme Court, which refused to hear the case in 2015. Zoom out: After leaving television, Jacobson moved into a radio career, eventually settling in as co-host alongside Proft. The two enjoyed success as one of Chicago's most conservative radio programs, routinely slamming Illinois leaders, including President Barack Obama and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker.
