LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 27, 2005--As the summertime "to do" list of home improvement projects begins to heat up, Southern Californians can get the latest trends, designs and solutions on News Talk 870 KRLA-AM's HOME WIZARDS(TM), debuting Saturday July 9, 2005 at 3:00 p.m. This fast-moving one-hour program will offer inspirational, innovative ideas and money-saving tips for projects both inside and outside to transform any living space. Special guest for the premiere broadcast is award winning interior designer and host of HGTV's "Designing for the Sexes," Michael Payne.

"Home improvement is a hot consumer trend, and News Talk 870 KRLA-AM is very pleased to be on the cutting edge, bringing HOME WIZARDS to Southern California listeners," said Terry Fahy, Vice President/General Manager, Salem Los Angeles.

Produced and hosted by veteran Los Angeles radio and television news anchor Cindy Dole, HOME WIZARDS will empower listeners with the motivation and know-how to tackle their next project, whether it's a 'Do It Yourself' or requires hiring outside help. She is a familiar voice to Southern California, as an award winning news reporter and anchor in Los Angeles for nearly a decade. When Dole is not covering breaking news, she is breaking into her next home interior or exterior design project, with a personal passion for home improvement and living the role of weekend warrior with her veteran construction professional husband, Bill Kane, who will offer his own brand of reality check advice to HOME WIZARDS listeners.

In addition to the full hour version of HOME WIZARDS heard Saturdays, 870 KRLA-AM will be airing weekday HOME WIZARDS features. HOME WIZARDS is a production of Home Wizards, Inc.
