He was the host of the Montel Williams Show on TV for 17 years, a former Marine, and Emmy Award winner. Now Montel will become the next talk host to be syndicated by Air America. He will host “Montel Across America” from 9am-12pm ET, with a national launch starting April 6. Air America CEO Bennett Zier says, “Montel is a multi-media star and a familiar name to millions of people across the country. The addition of Montel to our talent line-up is an important step for the continued growth of Air America.” The addition of Williams follows Air America’s launch of a syndication division, and the pickup of Newsweek Magazine’s “Newsweek On Air”, starting later this month.
