By Mike Boyle

------------------------------------
Westwood One (WW1) has announced that "The Fred Thompson Show" will make its debut on March 2 on more than 125 stations including Washington, Dallas, Houston and Minneapolis.
WW1 executive VP of news and talk programming Bart Tessler says, "Of all the radio talkers out there, how many can say they've debated in the Senate; campaigned for President of the United States; had a successful TV career on 'Law and Order' and shared the screen with Morgan Freeman, Bruce Willis, Robert De Niro and Sissy Spacek?" Thompson is as unique as they come and that will make for exceptional radio.
Thompson (pictured), the former U.S. senator and 2008 presidential candidate, will be sharing his views on politics, topical issues, pop culture and more during his daily two-hour talk show and will air live weekdays from noon-2 p.m. from WWI's studios in Washington.
