KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 8, 2007--The VFW talk-radio program, The National Defense, has joined forces with Talk Radio Network Entertainment (TRN).
The National Defense radio show highlights important issues and hot topics of vital importance to our country that until now have only been discussed by talk show hosts who have little or no connection to the United States military. The hour-long weekly show, which is produced in Kansas City, Mo., is hosted by Vietnam War veteran Jerry Newberry, VFW communications director. Co-hosting the show is Kansas City radio personality Randy Miller.
According to Newberry, The National Defense's hard-hitting approach to important issues will fill a void in talk radio because of the show’s military focus and dedication to championing relevant issues and causes affecting the nation’s uniformed forces.
"The National Defense is a very patriotic program, and we make no apologies for that fact," said Newberry , who last year was embedded with military units in Iraq and Afghanistan. "We won't be shy in bringing any issue to the table. That's what the VFW does, and we don't care if politicians can't take the heat,” adding that the show’s “take-no-prisoners” approach is nonpartisan. “We don't play favorites with any one political party because the VFW's focus is on what's best for our troops.”
"We are thrilled to have The National Defense join the TRN Entertainment weekend lineup. There are millions of Americans who want and need to hear unfiltered and unbiased opinions from someone like Jerry Newberry, who understands the challenges and dangers our troops face," says Mark Masters, CEO of Talk Radio Network Entertainment.
The VFW is the nation’s largest combat veterans' organization. To listen to previous shows go to townhall.com.
