-- Top Broadcast Talent Continues to Choose Clear Channel Radio
Home design expert Ty Pennington has signed an exclusive broadcast deal with Clear Channel Radio. Beginning January 2006, Pennington will share 60- and 90-second home, garden and personal improvement tips with listeners.
Pennington is best known as the star of ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition." He formerly was part of the cast of TLC's "Trading Spaces."

"Ty Pennington's Style Tips" will be Pennington's first venture into radio.
"I am so excited to enter the world of radio," Pennington said. "I can't wait to offer listeners new and insightful tips exclusively through the airwaves."
"Bringing top tier talent to our listeners is our number one goal," said Sean Compton, vice-president for radio programming at Clear Channel Radio. "The addition of Ty to our programming line-up is just another step in creating the type of content that our listeners want to hear."
Pennington joins the list of top personalities already part of Clear Channel Radio's on-air line-up, including Donald Trump, The Reverend Jesse Jackson, Ryan Seacrest and Carson Daly.
