NEW YORK, July 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM today
announced that host David Webb will
attend the Republican National Committee summer meeting
in Cleveland, offering candidates
for the Republican nomination a unique platform to reflect on their
candidacy and share personal anecdotes of interest to American
voters.
Webb's interviews – conducted in a five-question format – will
profile the candidates' life journeys, as well as their personal
interests outside of politics. The interviews will air August 6th on Patriot, SiriusXM's
conservative talk channel (125), and the non-partisan POTUS channel
(124).
"As we kick-off SiriusXM's coverage of the 2016 election in an
extremely fast-paced and politically-charged environment, the
notion of slowing down for a moment and giving each candidate an
opportunity to introduce him or herself in a personal manner is
something we feel very strongly about," said Dave Gorab, SiriusXM's Vice President and
General Manager, Talk Programming. "With each candidate profile,
our desire is to break from policy soundbites and give SiriusXM
listeners the opportunity to better understand the person behind
the candidacy."
Webb—host of SiriusXM's "The David Webb Show"—explores breaking
political, economic and national security news with top-level
newsmakers, community leaders, other notable guests and listeners
nationwide weeknights from 9:00 pm –
12:00 am ET on conservative talk
channel SiriusXM Patriot.
This is an open press opportunity. All credentialed media
in attendance at the RNC Summer Meeting are invited to broadcast
audio and video from these conversations with proper attribution to
SiriusXM. Media inquiries may be directed to Patrick Reilly (Patrick.Reilly@siriusxm.com) or
