                                                                                        Westwood One, Inc.
                                                             Satellite Earth Stations E960241 and E990283
                                                                                            FCC Form 312
                                                                                                  Exhibit 1

       DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION AND PUBLIC INTEREST STATEMENT

            Satellite earth stations E960241 and E990283 are licensed to Dial Global, Inc. (“Dial
    Global”)1 and are currently used in connection with the operation of the Dial Global
    Networks for the delivery of programming services to its customers. This Form 312
    application is being filed with respect to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger
    Agreement”), dated as of August 30, 2013, by and among Dial Global, a Delaware
    corporation, Cumulus Media Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CMHI”), and
    Cardinals Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of
    CMHI (“Merger Sub”), and solely for purposes of Section 1.13, Section 5.12, Section 9.5 and
    Article VIII of the Merger Agreement, DG LA Members, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
    company as Principal Stockholders’ Representative.
           Under the Merger Agreement, the transfer of control of Dial Global and its
    subsidiaries will be effectuated by the merger of Merger Sub with and into Dial Global.
    Once this occurs, the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease and Dial Global will
    continue as the surviving corporation. Dial Global will thus become a wholly-owned
    subsidiary of CMHI. Accordingly, by this application, Dial Global requests Commission
    consent to transfer control of the licenses for satellite earth stations E960241 and E990283
    from Dial Global to the shareholder of CMHI.
            Approval of this transfer of control application will allow Dial Global to continue to
    operate satellite earth stations E960241 and E990283 upon consummation of the Merger
    Agreement to facilitate the delivery of programming services to its customers. It is therefore
    respectfully submitted that a grant of this application will serve the public interest,
    convenience and necessity.




1
 Since the Merger Agreement was executed, Dial Global, Inc.’s name was changed to Westwood One, Inc. This
application therefore refers to the transferor as Westwood One, Inc.
