SPN Launches ''Daybreak Insider'' Daily Podcast

Salem Podcast Network

Salem Podcast Network (SPN) will launch the "Daybreak Insider" daily podcast beginning on Tuesday, September 7. The program will be released each weekday morning by 6am ET and will feature an overview of the biggest stories of the day. It's hosted by Salem Radio News (SRN) anchor Rich Thomason from SRN's Washington, DC bureau.

Rich Thomason brings more than forty years of news experience to the "Daybreak Insider" podcast, including more than two decades with SRN News as an anchor, correspondent and news producer. Previously, he's worked in Atlanta, Baltimore and Washington DC, in the newsrooms of CNN and the Associated Press as a news writer, editor, reporter and anchor.

"It's clear that podcast listeners are looking for informed reporting on what's really happening in their world," said Salem Senior Vice President of Spoken Word Phil Boyce. "Within Salem, we have a wealth of resources, both for newsgathering and for analysis. With the Daybreak Insider Podcast, we'll be pooling all of those resources into a single podcast to provide in-depth coverage from a conservative worldview."

The "Daybreak Insider" podcast will be a companion product to the Daybreak Insider newsletter, which is currently distributed each weekday morning.
