Mark Masters is the president, CEO, and co-owner of Talk Radio Network and its subsidiaries.[1] Founded in 1993, Talk Radio Network is a juggernaut in long form talk syndication - eclipsing all other syndicators in the launch and development of successful long form syndicated radio talk programs - this is due to what its CEO, Mark Masters, terms a "fearless entrepreneurial environment at TRN." Adds Masters, "Whether it is the syndication of conservatives, liberals, libertarians or lifestyle shows, the TRN companies love to create great programming. We are a company that loves great talk radio, we live and breathe what comes out of the speakers, and you can feel that passion in the hallways - we love this business."
On April 30th, 2007 Bear Stearns issued a report which concluded that TRN is the second largest provider of top tier nationally syndicated radio talk shows nationwide, making TRN (according to the Bear Stearns report) larger than ABC Radio Networks (ranked 3rd) and CBS controlled Westwood One (which is now ranked 4th) for national talk programming.
Recently placed full page ads to hire yet more "producers, salespeople, engineers and assistants" proudly tout that Talk Radio Network and its four other sister networks "have developed and launched more top ten syndicated political News/Talk radio programs than any other network in the last decade." - A fact that the companies' CEO is naturally proud of (Laura Ingraham, Michael Savage, Jerry Doyle, Rusty Humphries and Erich "Mancow" Muller are just a few of the slate - weekend programs are diverse and include Motor Trend Radio, and world renowned scientist Michio Kaku). Says Masters, "Long form talk is a highly entrepreneurial niche within radio syndication - we have worked hard to run a tight shop and build giants that can knock it out of the park for our station affiliate and advertising partners." Masters says, "We are rolling out a whole new level of long-form, spoken-word programs in the next 18 months. We are really excited about spoken-word programming and its place in radio in the years ahead."
