News Talk 960 KKNT Adds Minuteman to Weekend Line-Up

For Immediate Release


September 5, 2006 – Phoenix, AZ – NewsTalk 960 KKNT is proud to announce a new weekend talk show, Minuteman, hosted by Chris Simcox, President of Minuteman Civil Defense Corps.

The talk show will air on Sunday evenings from 7-9 PM as Chris Simcox discusses the many issues concerning the lack of border security as well as other problems affecting the nation. Listeners will learn more about the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps and hear in-depth discussions about unsecured borders and their threat to national security and public safety.

Chris Simcox is founder of Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, a citizen political action group that assists Border Patrol in better defending the U.S. Northern border with Canada and the Southern border with Mexico. Simcox and volunteers are making big news around the country and internationally for having the temerity to do something to prevent needless deaths in the desert and are demanding the leaders of this great nation take care of an embarrassing and deadly problem – lawlessness and anarchy on a sovereign border of the United States.

Since October of 2002, Simcox and a dedicated group of American patriots are setting a new standard for what it means to be an American.

Simcox and the volunteer Minutemen who have joined his efforts have peacefully turned over 13,202 illegal entrants representing 26 nationalities to Border Patrol without one incident of violence.

Musician, amateur baseball player, youth league coach, and most importantly father and responsible citizen, Chris Simcox is most proud of providing service to the community as an educator. He has a degree in Human Development and Early Childhood Education and spent 13 years as a teacher in Los Angeles. During his tenure as a teacher, Simcox chaired the Diversity committee at Wildwood Elementary School. Under the direction of Louise Derman-Sparks, Simcox studied anti-bias curriculum, a cultural and gender-sensitive approach to education.

“Education is the most important issue affecting our future,” says Simcox “and what I am doing now is attempting to educate an apathetic nation, even if it means hurting their feelings. We must awaken the nation and challenge ourselves to face the serious realities and consequences of ignoring the sovereignty of our borders.”
