Sam Bushman & Curt Crosby
"The Fifteen years ago, Sam Bushman, along with some friends, heard the best hard-hitting talk radio exposing the news the networks refuse to use. We thought, “this is either a huge fraud or these guys are on to something.” We researched their info and found out they were indeed stating the facts and this encouraged us to get involved. We bought the first radio station in 1996 – AM 540, KNAK in Delta, Utah. We owned and operated that station for 10 years. We have now sold that radio station. We now syndicate a hard-hitting, constitutional, talk radio show called Liberty RoundTable on the Internet and to am-fm radio stations across the country.
