Ed Wallace
Ed Wallace is an American radio personality. He is the founder and owner of Mogul & Mogul Productions in Fort Worth, Texas.[1] He is a former car salesman.[1] He is the host of Wheels with Ed Wallace which broadcasts out of Dallas, Texas on radio station KLIF 570 AM. The show, which is also broadcast over the Internet, focuses mainly on automotive subjects and is sponsored by local dealerships .[2]
The program usually has some political comments. Republicans are almost exclusively the target, as he tends to rarely criticize Democrats. However, in an attempt to not ruffle feathers in politically conservative Fort Worth, Ed frequently claims he does not vote in State or National elections. Wallace also writes a weekly column in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram[3] and is a contributing writer for BusinessWeek online.[4]
Two segments of Wheels with Ed Wallace, which is heard from 8AM to 1PM (Central Time) every Saturday morning, that do not deal with "car talk" are called "Secondhand News" and "The Backside of American History". "Secondhand News" presents news stories which might have been missed over the previous week. "Backside of American History" offers history lessons that have been forgotten on subjects as diverse as the Teapot Dome Scandal and Pancho Villa. The show has been given the Dallas Press Club's Katy Award for "Best Radio Documentary" and Wallace is a recipient of the 2001 Gerald Loeb Award for Radio[5] from the Anderson School of Business at UCLA for outstanding business journalism.
