RADIO UPDATE: Temporary programming changes

NOKOMIS, Ill. — Due to some circumstances that transpired earlier this week, some of our existing programs on the Heartland Newsfeed Radio Network are temporarily off the air.

Free Talk Live and its flagship network, the Liberty Radio Network/LRN.FM, is currently offline in relation to a raid by multiple federal agencies on Tuesday, rendering the program off the air on its 24-hour stream, as well as the network stream. We usually air these episodes live from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Central time with a replay from midnight to 3 a.m. seven nights a week.

Also impacted is Declare Your Independence with Ernest Hancock, which normally airs from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m., and unless things are back on the air, Questioning Authority, which airs Saturday nights from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m.

We are working with those close to the situation in hopes that the nationally-syndicated talk radio program and its flagship network back on the air soon.

Occasional hosts of FTL are recording the show with very few stations carrying the show live since the raid. However, we are working with them to get the show archive in time for our midnight rebroadcasts.

We are working on getting the most recent broadcasts of Declare Your Independence and Questioning Authority until LRN network streams are back online.

This is a developing story involving the Heartland Newsfeed Radio Network.
