Hannity has been the recipient of 2 Marconi Awards for Nationally Syndicated Radio Host of the Year and is a three-time consecutive winner of the Radio & Records National Talk Show Host of The Year Award (‘03, ’04, ‘05).
Sean is an accomplished author with two #1 best-sellers. His first book, “Let Freedom Ring: Winning the War of Liberty over Liberalism,” rode the NY Times best-seller list for a remarkable 17 weeks. Hannity’s more recent book, “Deliver Us from Evil: Defeating Terrorism, Despotism, and Liberalism,” debuted at #1 on the NY Times best-seller list and held strong for five consecutive weeks. Sean's latest book, "Conservative Victory," released in 2010, quickly became #1 on the NY Times best-seller list as well. More information about "Conservative Victory" can be found here.
Sean has the unique ability to reach out and connect with his audience proven during his highly successful “Hannitization of America Tour,” which brought hundreds of thousands of like-minded Americans together. He has visited markets big and small from coast to coast since his syndication in 2001.
Sean’s Freedom Concerts began in 2003 to raise awareness and funds for The Freedom Alliance, a charity which provides scholarships to the children of slain U.S. military personnel. In 2007 the concerts grew into five massive events resulting in over $10 million for The Freedom Alliance and were attended by over 60,000 people in Atlanta, San Diego, Dallas, Cincinnati, and New Jersey.
A gutsy talk-show host who always lands on the “right side” of the issues, Hannity is the host of the #1 9PM prime-time cable debate show "Hannity." The executives at Fox were so confident in Sean’s ability to attract viewers that the #1 cable news network asked Sean to launch a weekend program. “Hannity’s America” kicked off on January 7, 2007 and immediately captured the #1 prime-time cable slot at 9PM on Sundays.
Sean Hannity’s energy, charisma and Reagan conservatism has scored high points with audiences and critics alike as he continues to be one of the hottest commodities in media.

He is also one of the top new authors in the conservative political arena.

Mark's book Men in Blackwas released February 7, 2005 and quickly climbed to Number 3 in the nation on the New York Times Best-Seller list. When your book is endorsed by Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, you know you have a winner on your hands. In a short period of time, Mark has become one of the most listened to local radio Talk show hosts in the nation.
Mark Levin took over the WABC 6:00 PM slot on September 2, 2003. Before that, he hosted a popular Sunday afternoon program. "He's smart, witty, and fast on the draw," according to WABC Program Director Phil Boyce. "He has this sharp sarcastic wit that can easily stun his opponents. I know I would not want to debate him." Mark's show follows the ever popular Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity on WABC, but everyday he manages to come up with a new twist on the day's top news events, as well as his own unique information. His passion and intellect have made him a favorite of tens of thousands of radio listeners in the New York City area.
Mark has been a frequent guest and substitute host on The Sean Hannity Show, and has also been an advisor to Limbaugh, who frequently refers to him on the air with the nickname "F. Lee Levin." He is perhaps more well-known for his nickname, "The Great One," coined by his friend Hannity.

| RFD philosophy? Simple. We don't tell farmers how to farm. We give them the information they need to make decisions. RFD Radio Network sees farming as a business, and so we focus on three areas: agricultural news, markets and weather. These are vital to helping farmers make their critical business decisions. RFD Radio Network's in-depth coverage includes agri-news, national and international news, issues and trends that affect farmers. It's thorough and hard-hitting, yet still listener-friendly. Throughout the day RFD Radio Network provides a total market outlook, complete with opening and closing summaries. In addition, the network features the highly credible analysis of the AgriVisor market analysts. RFD Radio Network also provides up-to-the-minute commodity market reports, highlighting prices at the Chicago Board of Trade and the Mercantile Exchange. Complete weather coverage is critical to farmer-listeners, and the RFD Radio Network staff knows it. That's why we feature numerous weather programs throughout the day, from state-specific weather forecasts throughout the day to agricultural weather programs on a regular basis. Our weather is thorough, yet concice -- and provided by some of the top agricultural meteorologists in the industry. This all adds up to make the RFD Radio Network the most listened to source for farm and rural information in the state of Illinois. |
