John Fredericks Radio Network Expands – Now the Largest in Central Virginia!
WNTW AM 820 and 92.7 FM bought by the John Fredericks Radio Network and parent company Disruptor Radio, LLC – Call letters to change to WJFN-AM upon FCC approval
Richmond, VA—John Fredericks Radio Network (JFRN) – Disruptor Radio, LLC is pleased to announce that it has purchased and closed on Richmond based radio stations WNTW AM 820 and 92.7 FM
The acquisition, when combined with their flagship WJFN 100.5 FM radio gives JFRN the largest footprint and most coverage in Central Virginia.
Syndicated morning radio talk host John Fredericks, who’s very popular morning show runs 6:00 AM-10:00 AM daily across most of Virginia is the managing partner and majority stakeholder in the three radio stations under his umbrella companies Disruptor Radio, MAGA Radio, and JFRN.
Fredericks said he intends to simulcast daily programming for maximum impact.
“As of June 17, we have the most dynamic and engaging talk-news network lineup in America right here in central Virginia. Our combined three stick radio reach now goes to Petersburg in the south, Fredericksburg to the north, west to Charlottesville, southwest to Longwood University in Farmville and east to Newport News and the Northern Neck,” Fredericks said.
“We now have a bigger footprint then-rival legacy station WRVA in Richmond, and we look forward to the opportunity to offer central Virginia radio listeners an exciting alternative in the talk-news arena,” Fredericks added.
The network owner and talk show host says he’s not shy about further expansion potential and he’s bullish on the future of talk radio.
“Despite the crazy drive-by media’s fake news obsession with perpetuating the assassination of small businesses and stifling business growth with its manufactured one-sided coverage of COVID-19 –that apparently applies to everyone but rioters and looters–I am proud to announce our latest expansion project.
People are tired of being spoon-fed relentless negative phony talking points from those who seek to destroy our way of life. Our company’s expansion is proof that Disruptor Radio – and the GODZILLA of Truth’s message–is reaching an ever-burgeoning audience.
Our on-line listener growth has been stunning in the last six months as our audience is now both national and international,” Fredericks said.
The daily weekday lineup on the combined radio stations of AM 820, 92.7 FM and 100.5 FM includes:
6 AM – 10 AM The John Fredericks Show
10 AM-12 PM Stephen K. Bannon: WAR ROOM
12 PM – 1 PM Joe Morrissey: The Fighting Joe Show
1 PM – 3 PM Dennis Prager
3 PM – 5 PM Dr. Michael Savage: The Savage Nation
5 PM – 6 PM Chris Saxman: SAX LIVE AT 5!
6 PM – 9 PM The Larry Elder Show
9 PM – 12 AM Sebastian Gorka: America First
“In just a few short years, The John Fredericks Show has become the most influential political news talk program in the Commonwealth. John doesn’t suffer fools and he doesn’t pull punches-on both sides of the aisle. I’m thrilled that he is rapidly growing and it proves that small business is thriving again. After all, we all need more common sense and we get it every single day from John Fredericks,” said Pete Snyder, CEO of Disruptor Capital and co-founder of The Virginia 30 Day Fund, both sponsors of the network.
Former White House chief strategist for President Trump turned international radio talk show host, Stephen K. Bannon, and his radio show War Room will continue to run daily on the John Fredericks Radio Network, but now the show will be reaching more listeners in Virginia.
“John Fredericks is the driving force behind the emerging ‘Deplorables Network’. In a time when others in radio are throwing up their hands — Frederick’s says ‘full speed ahead’. It’s that combination of vision, guts, and drive that makes him unique– to the Trump Movement and to the country,” Bannon offered.
Former Trump for President campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, now a senior advisor to Trump-Pence 2020 re-elect and a frequent outside advisor to President Trump, said, “Fredericks’ growing network is paving the way to get around the fake news and digital policing from Silicon Valley, thwarting their attempt to silence the truth for the sake of forwarding a false leftist narrative.
“John Fredericks’ expanding platform is critical to getting the truth out. That’s why I built a Washington studio for him in my D.C. location. His reach is already massive and I’m hoping the next station he buys is in New Hampshire-where I live.”
Curtis Ellis, policy advisor at America First Policies and Chairman Emeritus of The American Jobs Alliance added: “The American Jobs Alliance is a founding and continued sponsor of the John Fredericks Show. Nine years ago we invested advertising dollars in his vision to give a platform to the forgotten working men and women in America. We have grown significantly together as a result of that decision.
“This is a great day for Virginia! Fredericks is the voice of truth and Americanism, and his voice just got louder. No one in America on the airwaves articulates President Trump’s America First Agenda with more passion and force than John.”

How One Right-Wing Virginia Talk Radio Host is Fueling Backlash Against Social Distancing
WRITTEN BY ALEX WALKER, MEDIA MATTERS FOR AMERICA
A Virginia-based talk radio host and member of President Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign advisory committee is promoting local protests against COVID-19 restrictions and spreading misinformation about the virus.
The coronavirus pandemic has highlighted talk radio’s unique ability to reach local audiences. John Fredericks, host of The John Fredericks Show, is one of many conservative media figures who have railed against public health measures designed to slow the spread of the virus. But in addition to pushing familiar right-wing talking points, Fredericks’ show provides a valuable platform for regional protest organizers looking to boost turnout and Trump surrogates hoping to reach a local audience.
A profile of Fredericks for The Washington Post noted, “A local host can repeatedly bolster or attack a local politician, whereas a national host simply doesn’t have the time.” Protests against social distancing have largely been organized at the state and local level. While nationally syndicated hosts like Rush Limbaugh cheer on these protests from the sidelines, only local hosts like Fredericks can afford to spend airtime engaging with local organizers and encouraging audiences to attend specific protests.
Trump’s media allies have cast doubt on the effectiveness of social distancing, and many have voiced support for protesters calling to reopen the economy. Fredericks has been a strong supporter of these protests, even offering up his show as a megaphone for organizers. As he argued during a discussion with one local protest organizer on May 14, “We have got to get out of our pajamas and stop this. And the only way you’re going to stop it is by direct action.”
Much of Fredericks’ criticism has been aimed at state and local officials in Virginia, and he has interviewed several protest organizers in his home state. On April 21, Fredericks encouraged his listeners to attend a rally in Richmond and asked, “When are we going to wake up and stop this nonsense?” Later during the same show, Fredericks interviewed one of the protest organizers with Reopen Virginia.

Commentary: The CCP Virus and Their U.S. Corporate Useful Idiots
The CCP Virus and Their U.S. Corporate Useful Idiots
By Curtis Ellis and John Fredericks
In 2008 It Was Big Banks Who Benefited At The Direct Expense Of U.S. Workers…In 2020 It’s Big Business Who Will Exploit the Pandemic To Destroy Main Street
These writers and others who for decades railed against outsourcing industries to the People’s Republic of China were long dismissed as crackpots and Luddites. Now many of those who were doing the dismissing have been forced to admit the true cost of cheap goods is very high.
For three decades, the one-world globalist elites jammed cheap slave labor and outsourcing our manufacturing supply chains down our unsuspecting throats.
They maintained in their Ivy League smugness that share-holder value was king, that free and open trade was good for us and the free movement of peoples among nations was the key to world prosperity.
They mocked national sovereignty and told us our six-pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer would be five cents cheaper – if China made the aluminum cans.
These same gangster-banksters on Wall Street-led by multi-millionaire Goldman Sachs private jet and caviar senior executives who raped the country in the 2008 crisis by stealing the TARP bailout money-are now telling us “big corporate” knows best.
Just like when they told us if China joined the WTO they would eventually morph into a free and open democratic society.
Now their gig is finally up. Thanks to the CCP.
CCP Exposes Big Business-Wall Street Unholy Alliance
The Chinese Communist Party virus has exposed many of our nation’s infirmities.
The most glaring is our dependence on Communist China for medicine, medical equipment, and so many other essential goods.
China inherited nearly our entire supply chain of medical equipment — by supplying cheap labor to greed-driven business CEO’s and their lower Manhattan cheerleaders.
But that is by no means the only problem the pandemic has exposed. The consolidation of property and industries into fewer and fewer hands is another…and it looms bigger than the pandemic itself.
The New York Times details how corporate consolidation in the medical device industry contributed to the shortage of ventilators our nation is now experiencing.
Over a dozen years ago, in the wake of SARS, MERS, and other deadly outbreaks, the federal government saw a need to stockpile ventilators in case of a future emergency.
It contracted with a small California firm, Newport Medical Devices, that had an innovative design it could produce for $3,000 per machine—significantly less expensive than the $10,000-$20,000 price tag commonly quoted.
A good move by federal government buyers who strove to both save taxpayer dollars and get the right product should the need arise.
But then something happened and everything changed.
“The medical device industry was undergoing rapid consolidation, with one company after another merging with or acquiring other makers,” the Times reports. “Manufacturers wanted to pitch themselves as one-stop shops for hospitals, which were getting bigger, and that meant offering a broader suite of products. In May 2012, Covidien, a large medical device manufacturer, agreed to buy Newport for just over $100 million.”
Covidien, a publicly traded corporation with $12 billion in sales, bought five other medical device companies that year alone. It was playing mergers and acquisitions if not “Monopoly.”
Here’s the rub: Covidien was already selling more expensive ventilators. It didn’t consider developing a low-cost machine to be a priority.
In fact, the Newport Medical machines were a direct threat to their eye-popping margins. So they systematically eliminated them.
Project managers were re-assigned and Covidien told the government it wanted out of the contract.
“Government officials and executives at rival ventilator companies said they suspected that Covidien had acquired Newport to prevent it from building a cheaper product that would undermine Covidien’s profits from its existing ventilator business,” the Times story notes.
Inflated Margins Suffocated Ventilators
No kidding? Just like the $3 trillion in repatriation money that was supposed to come soaring back into the U.S. economy to build factories and create jobs, right? Instead, it went to stock buybacks and senior executive bonus compensation.
It doesn’t end there. In 2015 Medtronic, an even larger medical device company, bought Covidien for $50 billion (can you say “consolidation”?) as part of a corporate inversion scheme so Medtronic could register in Ireland and avoid paying U.S. taxes.
Medtronic, one of the four largest ventilator manufacturers in America today—along with Phillips, GE Healthcare, and Allied Healthcare—has been slow to increase the production of its higher-priced ventilators, choosing to guard it’s existing supply chain relationships.
Public shaming compelled Medtronic finally to announce it would release the blueprints and specs for the low-cost machine Newport (now part of Medtronic) developed at U.S. taxpayer expense.
The nation’s productive capacity and know-how have come under the ownership of fewer and fewer giant corporations.
These corporations try to squeeze every penny from production by eliminating R&D and outsourcing production to the lowest cost cheap-labor camps on Earth, even those ruled by communist dictators.
Unfortunately, the pandemic-inspired shutdown of the economy only threatens to further corporate consolidation in our economy.
The Death of Main Street And Millions of Jobs
A report from Indiana provides an example of how this will play out, even if it is an unintended consequence of shutting down much of the nation’s commerce.
Book stores, toy stores, and other retailers deemed “nonessential” are complaining that Dollar General—a low-cost chain offering food among many other items—remains open and is still selling toys, books, and other items they are barred from selling.
In response to the complaints, county officials ordered Dollar General to rope off the aisles where “non-essential” merchandise is displayed.
Question: Have officials elsewhere barred Dollar General—one of the largest vendors of Chinese imports—from trafficking in prohibited merchandise?
And how about Amazon? Amazon still sells clothes, toys and everything else, much of it from China. None of the money spent on Amazon finds its way into the pockets of American owners and employees of brick-and-mortar shops lining Main St. America that were forced to close.
While small businesses are ordered to shut down, their giant corporate competitors remain open.
This is how the multi-trillion dollar economic relief package is also a stimulus bill for Jeff Bezos, Walmart, and China.
The virus has also revealed another weakness of 21st century America: rule by a cult of experts with an unshakeable faith in mathematical models.
These are the people whose economic models told us trade with China would make us all richer and happier.
Now they place their faith in yet another infallible model, one they tell us will save us from death itself—a Savior Machine.
Its answer is law. Dare to question it and you are condemned as an enemy of the state, complete with a 1-800-neighborhood rat line.
Woody Guthrie said some men will rob you with a six-gun and some with a fountain pen.
Today he would wonder if computer models aren’t the equivalent of those fountain pens.

Radio Titan Salem Radio Network Adds Steve Bannon’s “War Room: Impeachment” Radio Show
Show to reach millions across the United States until the acquittal of President Donald J. Trump
November 14, 2019, Washington, D.C. – War Room: Impeachment, a new daily radio show, and podcast, will begin airing nightly on Salem Radio Network from Monday, November 18 at 9 pm in each local media market.
Hosted by former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon – alongside Trump 2016 communications adviser Jason Miller and Raheem Kassam, former chief adviser to Brexit leader Nigel Farage – the program offers expert analysis on the historic impeachment hearings of President Donald J. Trump, broadcasting until the day after his acquittal.
Bannon commented: “We are honored to join Salem, the largest conservative and populist radio network in the country, which will help us deliver information and analysis on the impeachment of President Trump to hard-working Americans as they get on with their busy lives. The citizens of this country will be the real jury in this case and it is vital they get the facts.”
The show is being produced in co-operation with veteran broadcaster John Fredericks and will continue to air on the John Fredericks network throughout Virginia and in parts of Florida at 9-10am live, seven days a week.
“The John Fredericks Radio Network is excited to offer national syndication for Stephen K. Bannon’s War Room: Impeachment live radio show and podcast from the nation’s capital. While War Room is now top of mind for all the key influencers in D.C., our goal is to also make the show available for all America so they are informed and engaged on impeachment. We are reaching the grassroots to break through Nancy Pelosi’s beltway fake news firewall,” Fredericks commented.
Many star guests have already appeared on the show, including Congressman Mark Meadows, Senator Mike Braun, Nigel Farage MEP, Congressman Matt Gaetz, David Bossie, Scott Rasmussen, and David Rivkin.
Leading business magazine Fast Company recently said of War Room: Impeachment: “If you want to know tomorrow’s talking points today, this is the place to be. It’s the closest thing to hanging out with Trump himself in your bathrobe… the hosts bring a sharp understanding of impeachment packaged in a rollicking radio format.”
In addition to live broadcasts available on Salem, the John Fredericks network, and at www.warroom.org, War Room: Impeachment is also available as a podcast on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Stitcher, and Soundcloud.

Steve Bannon Launches Live War Room: Impeachment Radio Show on John Fredericks Radio Network
Stephen K. Bannon, former chief strategist for President Trump and CEO/Chairman of the Trump for President campaign in 2016 has launched a seven-day a week live radio program on the John Fredericks Radio Network.
Richmond, VA — By John Fredericks
Recognizing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s master messaging on President Trump’s pending impeachment and frustrated by the lack of a coordinated response by Republicans, Steve Bannon took matters into his own hands.
He started his own impeachment war room — in the form of a live radio show in the basement of his Capitol Hill townhouse. It gives rapid response new meaning.
Bannon’s new show: War Room: Impeachment airs live on JFRS’ affiliates 9:00 AM-10:00 AM and is broadcast from Washington, D.C.
It’s also streamed live on WJFNradio.com, the John Fredericks Radio APP and WarRoom.org.
War Room: Impeachment is already up to episode 16, and can be heard on our JFRS YouTube Channel as well as other podcast platforms and WarRoom.org.
Run from our new studio installed in Steve Bannon’s basement on Capitol Hill, it’s a real live war room, set up just like it would be in the Trump White House or like the 2016 campaign in New York.
War Room: Impeachment takes the day’s impeachment events, breaks them down with keen, insightful analysis and develops daily strategic communication and messaging plan.
Most important, Bannon and his team provide D.C. GOP influencers and Trump supporters with an every-day blueprint for action.
Joining Steve Bannon each day are Jason Miller, former Trump for President strategic communication advisor and Raheem Kassam, who ran the war room for the UK Independent Party and Brexit for Nigel Farage.
Other guests have included U.S. Reps. Mark Meadows, Matt Gaetz, former Trump Administration Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, former deputy Trump 2016 campaign manager Dave Bossie, and many others.
“The Nullification Project has worked extraordinarily well for Pelosi and the Democrats,” Bannon said. “Pelosi has taught a master’s class in political misinformation. It’s been brilliantly executed. She is the best there is at this.”
The White House decided against launching an impeachment war room internally.
So Bannon went external.
“The Democrats were taking free shots on goal on a daily basis, with no resistance at the beginning from Republicans or the White House,” Bannon added.
“Now they are fighting back, and our War Room: Impeachment show is a daily blueprint for action, including daily messaging that runs exactly like a real political war room like we had during the campaign, or like the White House employed for tax cuts and Bret Kavanaugh,” Bannon explained.
Now Bannon and his War Room: Impeachment team and guests are driving the GOP response narrative, and explaining what his happening to our listeners in frank and candid terms.
Jonathan Easley of The Hill newspaper had a great story on the show’s objectives.
Don’t miss a day of War Room: Impeachment.

Virginia Dems Poised For Total Takeover of General Assembly
Reminiscent of the cult movie classic “Night of the Living Dead” – the Virginia radical Democrats are banging at the door of common sense.
There may not be enough boards and nails to stop them.
The crazies are at the gate.
It’s Caucus of the Corn – led by House Minority Leader Eileen Filler-Corn coming out of the high stalks at the stroke of midnight.
Plagued by money woes, the Virginia GOP is on the verge of generational political Armageddon.
It’s the equivalent of a Republican political nuclear winter and Virginia is about to become the south’s new California.
The state Democrats’ message has been succinct and salient: “Trump sucks. Guns.”
That’s it.
To counter, the Republican message has been garbled and non-existent, driven by local issues only.
State Senate Gone
The state senate is already gone. Holding a 21-19 edge, the best the GOP can do now is to hold their loss to two seats. If the Democrats win control of the state senate 21-19 consider is a resounding GOP victory. The night could end 23-17, which would spell catastrophe for the Virginia Republican senate caucus.
GOP House Hangs by a Thread
There is a GOP pathway to holding the House of Delegates, albeit a narrow one. It centers on Republicans holding three key seats: Paul Milde in Fredericksburg (Milde defeated Bob Thomas in a primary) Tim Hugo, the last Republican standing in Northern Virginia and Chris Stolle in Virginia Beach. If they hold those three, they have a fighting chance. If not: enter Caucus of the Corn, stage left.
We’ll have complete district by district predictions at 6:00 AM tomorrow.

Lefty Media Matters Melt Down: Freaks Out About Fredericks, “Budding Media Empire…Most Influential Media Company in Virginia…”
by WJFV Radio • Recent Posts
John Fredericks, one of Virginia’s most influential talk radio hosts with close ties to President Donald Trump, is using a hyperpartisan blog masquerading as a local news site to solicit support for Trump’s reelection campaign and spread right-wing narratives while promoting his own radio program.
The Virginia Star, which was launched this summer, is the latest addition to Fredericks’ budding media empire and is also a part of the hyperpartisan right-wing Star News Digital Media network. At first glance, the site looks like an ordinary, low-budget local news site. Its Facebook page describes the site as a “NEW source for investigative news, thoughtful opinion, and more.” On its Google search landing page, the site is billed as “Leading the Way in News and Education.”
But in reality, The Virginia Star contains little more than partisan bile.
