Each and every day there’s a whole world of news and information that goes unreported, ignored by the mainstream media. Stories, issues, and events that impact the daily lives of Americans young and old ignored, purposely discarded, or “reported” without the benefit of the full perspective or context. News = Truth…and the truth has no agenda. Real News from The Blaze will play no favorites. The good, the bad, and the downright ugly will be presented unvarnished and complete without a nod to the left or the right. News and analysis from the worlds of politics, national security, the economy, foreign policy, and whatever else impacts our lives. Virginia Leahy, who helped develop and launch three primetime shows on HLN, will serve as executive producer.
Since its launch, GBTV has already added a wide range of original programming including the reality show Independence USA, the kid’s show Liberty Tree House and the comedy news show The B.S. of A. GBTV also recently announced a deal with Icebox, the innovative animation production company to jointly develop an animated comedy series. GBTV features Glenn’s two-hour show, which is airs live weekdays from 5 to 7PM ET and is broadcast from Dallas, Texas.
