Christopher Ruddy
Christopher
Ruddy is one of the nation’s premiere journalists. In 1999, Newsweek
named him one of America's top 20 new media personalities.
NewsMax journalists
Christopher Ruddy and Carl Limbacher have a blockbuster new book
published on September 11, 2002. It’s called
Catastrophe: Clinton’s Role in America’s Worst Disaster -
and tells the real story of 9/11 - the one the big media
are afraid to report.
As an investigative
reporter Mr. Ruddy has broken numerous stories that have received
national acclaim. In 1992 he first exposed revelations that a PBS
documentary had fabricated key facts – causing PBS to withdraw their
support for the film - the first time the agency had made such a
move.
At the New York Post,
Mr. Ruddy’s series on abuses of the Social Security Disability
programs led to national media attention and Congressional reforms.
Also at the Post, Mr. Ruddy broke several stories relating to the
death investigation of deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster.
He continued his reporting
on that case, and Clinton-Gore scandals as a correspondent with the
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. In 1997, Mr. Ruddy authored
The Strange Death of Vincent Foster: An Investigation
published by Simon & Schuster's Free Press.
His book received the
endorsement of former FBI Director William Sessions, who said Mr.
Ruddy's reporting "argued a persuasive case that the American public
has not been told the complete facts" of the Foster death.
Christopher Ruddy is the
author/editor of
Bitter Legacy, which reveals the Untold Story of the
Clinton-Gore Years. Christopher [Carl] document how the corruption
of the Clinton-Gore administration robbed America of her political
integrity and national security - and how the Clinton-Gore
administration engaged in a massive abuse of power.

Carl Limbacher
Carl
first gained notoriety as a reporter with the Washington Weekly and
has built a reputation as one of the hottest sources for alternative
news on the Internet and as a frequent guest on radio and TV talk
shows throughout America. A regular source for talk radio hosts from
coast to coast, Inside Cover writer and editor Carl Limbacher
specializes in the news the mainstream media overlooks.
NewsMax journalists
Christopher Ruddy and Carl Limbacher have a blockbuster new book
published on September 11, 2002. It’s called
Catastrophe: Clinton’s Role in America’s Worst Disaster -
and tells the real story of 9/11 - the one the big media
are afraid to report.
From last year's election
coverage to the recent hostage standoff with China, Limbacher helped
keep NewsMax.com on the cutting edge of breaking developments -- so
much so that Fox News Channel, CNN and MSNBC all invited him to be a
guest on their news programs to get his take on the China crisis.
Limbacher's stories have
been picked up by conservative media stars Rush Limbaugh and Sean
Hannity -- and his scoops are regularly covered by the New York
Post's Page Six and even the Washington Times editorial
page.
He was a regular guest on
Mary Matalin's Washington, D.C. radio show before she became special
advisor to President Bush and Vice President Cheney.
He was a recent guest on
Bill Maher's Politically Incorrect.
In 1998, he was first with
news that Congressional Black Caucus chairwoman Maxine Waters wanted
an investigation into Ron Brown's death - and the first in print
with complaints from Brown's daughter about a government cover-up.
Months later, Limbacher went public with the behind the scenes story
on the jailhouse death of key Whitewater witness James McDougal -
including claims from witnesses who say prison officials denied him
his heart medication hours before he died of a heart attack.
And no one knows more than
Limbacher about Bill and Hillary Clinton's dark past -- and future
plans to undermine the Bush administration and reclaim the White
House.
In 1999, Limbacher got the
inside scoop on NBC's embargoed interview with Clinton accuser
Juanita Broaddrick - direct from Broaddrick herself. More than three
weeks before NBC ran her bombshell story.
During the 2000
presidential race, Limbacher snagged an interview with Vice
President Al Gore's Vietnam buddy H. Alan Leo - and was the first to
actually print a detailed account of Leo's claims that Army brass
assigned him to be Gore's battlefield bodyguard.
Carl is the author/editor
of
Bitter Legacy, which reveals the Untold Story of the
Clinton-Gore Years. Christopher [Carl] document how the corruption
of the Clinton-Gore administration robbed America of her political
integrity and national security - and how the Clinton-Gore
administration engaged in a massive abuse of power.
And
although the mainstream press refused to credit NewsMax, it was
Limbacher's Inside Cover report "Racial Changes Made to Ground Zero
Tribute" that set off a nationwide firestorm of protest over plans
for a politically correct statue based on the famous photo, "Flag
Raising at Ground Zero."
With breaking updates
several times a day, Limbacher has made Inside Cover a must read for
media savvy folks everywhere.
"Read all about it -
NewsMax.com! We check out the site every morning 'cause you always
have the stuff a day early," says Fox News Channel's top rated "Fox
& Friends" morning show host Steve Doucy about Limbacher's reports.
Fox News Channel's Sean
Hannity says Carl Limbacher is one of "best reporters in America --
I read him everyday."

Colonel Stan Lunev
Colonel Stanislav Lunev is the highest-ranking military officer ever
to defect from Russia to the United States.
Col. Lunev defected in
1992, after Boris Yeltsin came to power. Lunev’s information to the
CIA, DIA, FBI and other national security agencies was deemed so
vital he was placed - and remains in -- the FBI’s Witness Protection
Program.
As one of Russia’s top GRU
agents in America, Lunev was involved in making Russian war plans
against America, as well as ferreting out American military secrets.
Some of Lunev’s information was revealed in the 1997 bestseller
Through the Eyes of the Enemy (Regnery). Among many
revelations, Lunev reported that Russia’s military -despite the end
of the Cold War, continues to prepare for a war with the U.S.
Lunev’s credentials are
impeccable. He was born in Leningrad in 1946 to the family of a
Soviet Army officer.
As a youth, Lunev was
recruited for an elite military academy, the Suvharov Military
School in Vladikavkaz, Northern Caucasus.
In 1964, Lunev began
studies at the Joint Arms High Command Military Academy, the Soviet
equivalent of the U.S. Army West Point Academy, with civilian
specialization in math and physics.
As a young officer, Lunev
was selected for the GRU, Russia’s elite spy agency.
As his first field
assignment in the GRU, Lunev was sent in 1978 to Singapore under
civilian cover as a student at Nanyang University, University of
Southern Seas.
In 1979 he returned to
Moscow as a GRU Operational Officer. In 1980 he was reassigned to
China as one of Russia’s top spies there posing as a TASS
journalist.
In 1988 Col. Lunev was
assigned to the GRU Field Office in Washington, D.C. as a GRU
Intelligence Officer. In 1992 he defected to U.S. authorities. Since
then he has served as a consultant to the FBI, CIA and many defense
agencies and private corporations.
CIA Files: Defector Reveals Russia's Secret Plans
A NewsMax Exclusive 2-hour Interview on Cassettes
In "CIA Files," Col.
Stanislav Lunev reveals the dark side of Russia's soul – and
their continuing efforts to destroy America. The
highest-ranking military spy ever to defect from Russia, Lunev
warned the CIA and the FBI that Russia continues to actively
plan for war with the U.S. and the West. They didn't listen
then, but they're listening now. |

Gary Aldrich

On
Independence Day, 1996, former FBI Agent Gary Aldrich broke the code
of silence surrounding the Clinton administration. In his book,
Unlimited Access: An FBI Agent Inside the Clinton White House,
Mr. Aldrich exposed the questionable behavior and serious breaches
of national security he witnessed while performing his duties, which
included a key role in a comprehensive personnel screening process.
His book
quickly skyrocketed to the top of the New York Times Bestseller List
and stayed on the list for 20 weeks. To date, Unlimited Access
has sold more than half a million copies and was #1 on every
bestseller list in the nation! He has since written his first novel,
Speak No Evil, which enjoys brisk sales.
Since
publication of Unlimited Access, Mr. Aldrich has made
thousands of radio, TV and personal speaking appearances, including
This Week with David Brinkley, Good Morning America,
Dateline, Equal Time, Hannity and Colmes,
The O'Reilly Factor, Inside Edition and others. Mr.
Aldrich has also authored editorial pieces for distinguished
publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Human Events
Magazine, The Daily Oklahoman Newspaper, and Insight
Magazine.
Given Mr.
Aldrich’s past experience, he has a particular passion to intercede
in the plight of ethical dissenters currently under attack by the
media or by a corrupt federal agency or administration. Mr. Aldrich
continues to appear as an expert witness guest on many talk shows
around the nation discussing the Clinton administration, corruption,
the FBI, other federal agencies, issues related to law enforcement
and Second Amendment rights.
A
30-year veteran of the FBI, Mr. Aldrich specialized in white-collar
crime, including fraud and political corruption. For five years
prior to retiring, Mr. Aldrich served under former President Bush
and Clinton in a national security role. In addition, he was
assigned to the U.S. Senate and House, working closely with elected
officials on a variety of issues.
In January
1998 Mr. Aldrich founded The Patrick Henry Center for Individual
Liberty, a non-profit foundation dedicated to promoting the U.S.
Constitution and Bill of Rights and supporting the right of citizens
to engage in ethical dissent. Mr. Aldrich has a special interest in
the rights of our young college students to engage in debate about
important issues of the day, free of fear from the intolerance of
the “politically correct.”
In a new
audiotape just released by NewsMax -
Off the Record with Gary Aldrich -
the one-time top FBI agent assigned to the White House reveals
things never before revealed -- the sordid and shocking truth about
the Clintons.

Phil
Brennan
Phil
Brennan, a veteran investigative journalist, writes for NewsMax.com
and edits and publishes Wednesday on the Web (http://www.pvbr.com).
A native New Yorker, he
moved to Washington in 1956 where he worked in the public relations
field, handling such assignments as the Washington end of the
successful Alaska Statehood campaign. After working on the Nixon
campaign staff in 1960 he was named director of public relations and
special projects of the House Republican Policy Committee.
During his years on Capitol
Hill he also wrote the "From Washington Straight" column for Bill
Buckley's National Review. He was responsible for uncovering the
Bobby Baker scandal which resulted in the jailing of the secretary
of the Senate, a close confidant of Lyndon Johnson. In 1964 during
the Goldwater campaign he organized the GOP Truth Squad and served
as its PR director.
In 1968 after working as an
administrative assistant for a member of Congress, he moved to Boca
Raton, Florida where he continued his journalism career and wrote
two unpublished novels and a series of non-fiction books, the last
being a history of the Shroud of Turin.
Phil is a veteran of World
War II, having served in the US Marine Corps from 1943 to 1946. He
is a widower and the father of seven children. He serves as
sacristan at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in Boca Raton and is a
trustee of the Lincoln Heritage Institute.

Tammy Bruce
Tammy Bruce
is an openly gay, pro-choice, gun owning, pro-death penalty,
voted-for-President Reagan progressive feminist. She was drawn into
feminist activism in the late 1980's to contribute to the ongoing
effort to ensure safe and legal abortion for all women. Just two
years after joining the National Organization for Women, and with a
brand of feminism that places her somewhere between Donna Reed and
Thelma and Louise, Ms. Bruce was elected president of the Los
Angeles chapter of NOW at the age of 27. The youngest ever to
achieve that position, she doubled the chapter's membership from
2,000 to 4,000 within a year with issue campaigns that introduced a
fresh view of feminist activism. In her seven years as president
(1990-1996, the longest continuous tenure in the chapter's 30 year
history) she mobilized activists locally and nationally on a whole
range of issues, including women's image in media, child care,
health care, violence against women, economics, and domestic
violence. Ms. Bruce also served two years as a member of the
National NOW board of directors.
An important contributor to the author's position on the
relevance of free speech comes from her experience as a radio talk
show host in Los Angeles. In fact, with the "Tammy Bruce Show" on
KFI-AM 640, she was the first openly gay women in the country to
host a show on mainstream talk radio. Her editorials and
commentaries on significant social issues have been published
nationally and internationally in a wide variety of magazines,
newspapers, and on television and radio programming.
Ms. Bruce's first book, The New Thought Police, was published by
Forum, an imprint of Crown/Random House, in October 2001. An
analysis of freedom of expression and the culture wars, it explores
the importance of freedom of expression and personal liberty and how
that liberty is under attack by the dangerous rise of Left-wing
McCarthyism. She is currently writing "The Death of Right and Wrong:
How the Left's Moral Vacuum Corrupts Our Culture and Threatens Our
Liberty," also for Forum (April 2003)
A native of Los Angeles, the 39-year-old writer and political
commentator notes that her interest in politics and individual
liberty was sparked during her childhood in part because of the work
of authors Ray Bradbury and George Orwell, both of whom remain her
favorite writers. Ms. Bruce lives in Los Angeles with her foundling
cat, Sadie.

Mike Gallagher
Mike
Gallagher's road to becoming one of America's fastest-growing
nationally syndicated radio talk show hosts began in 1978 as a
17-year-old high school senior in Dayton, Ohio. Taking a tour of his
hometown talk radio station, WAVI, Mike saw a memo on the bulletin
board stating that the station was in search of a young talk host.
Figuring he had to be one of the leading contenders based on his
age, he marched into the program director's office and announced
that he was the man for the job. That night, he was on the air and
within a week he had his first full-time stint in broadcasting. When
the management of WAVI discovered they had hired a high school
senior, they quickly put a clause in his contract mandating that he
never publicly reveal his age. So began a colorful broadcasting
career that has culminated in being heard around the country. In
it's first few months of launching the national program, The Mike
Gallagher Show is heard on over 140 radio stations in communities
all over the country, framed by markets like Seattle, Sacramento,
Jacksonville, Los Angeles, and New York City.
Mike's talk radio career
has taken him from Dayton, Ohio to WFBC Radio in Greenville, South
Carolina where his ratings and revenue success led to his eventual
promotion to station manager. From there, he became the afternoon
drive-time leader in Albany, New York on upstate powerhouse WGY.
From Albany, it was just a two and a half hour drive south to the
nation's number-one market, New York City, where Mike enjoyed a two
year run as morning drive talk host on the nation's most listened-to
talk station, WABC. When the owner of Mike's former employer in
Albany, John Dame, approached him about the opportunity for national
syndication, Mike jumped right in, forming Dame-Gallagher Networks,
L.LC with Dame, a longtime owner/operator of Dame Media, Inc. based
in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The Mike Gallagher Show is beamed to
radio stations around the nation via satellite from state of the art
studios and offices in the world-famous Empire State Building in
midtown Manhattan.
Being an Ohioan by birth
but a New Yorker by choice, Mike resides on Long Island, New York
with frequent on-air subjects of his show, his wife Denise and their
twin sons Matt and Micah. Their older sons, Bryan and Trevor, are
attending college and working full-time in the New York area. The
40-year-old Gallagher spends most of his free time exploring all
that New York City has to offer with his family, frequently
attending sporting events (a die-hard Yankees fan), the theatre (he
met his wife at a community theatre production of A Christmas
Carol), far too many restaurants (his diet starts next Monday) and
gathering life experiences for his daily radio show.

Dick
Morris
Probably
the most prominent American political consultant, Dick Morris is
almost universally credited with piloting Bill Clinton to a stunning
comeback re-election victory in 1996 after the president lost
Congress to the Republicans two years before. Called "the most
influential private citizen in America" by Time Magazine, Morris
helped steer Clinton to the center and away from the liberal
policies he had pursued in his first two years in office. Morris is
also credited with advising Clinton to sign the welfare reform bill
of 1996 and getting him to back a balanced budget, both key centrist
positions.
Morris began his relationship with Clinton in 1977 when he handled
the Arkansas Attorney General's successful campaign to become the
youngest Governor in the nation. Morris did not work on Clinton's
defeat for re-election in 1980 but did oversee his comeback victory
in 1982 as well as his Arkansas re-election victories in 1984, 1986
and 1990.
In addition to Clinton, Morris has handled the winning campaigns for
more than 30 senators or governors including Republican Senate
Majority Leader Trent Lott and former Governors Bill Weld of
Massachusetts and Pete Wilson of California.
In recent years, Morris has turned to foreign campaigns and served
as chief strategist for Mexico's reformer Vicente Fox in his upset
victory in July, 2000 over the PRI after the party had ruled the
nation for 71 years. He also was the chief strategist for the
winning campaign of Argentina's new president Fernando de la Rua in
November, 1999. He also worked for Jorge Battle in his victory for
president of Uruguay that same year.
In the United States, Morris has become a familiar figure as a
commentator for the Fox News Channel. He makes over four hundred
appearances each year and is well known for hard-hitting,
nonpartisan, objective commentary about the U.S. political scene.
He writes a weekly column for the New York Post and the Hill
Magazine in the U.S. and the National Post in Canada.
In November of 1999, Morris founded a Web site in the U.S. called
Vote.com where people may log on to vote on the major issues of the
day. Their opinions are then e-mailed to their senator and
congress-people and to other significant decision makers. In the
eleven months of the site's operation, over one million voters have
registered their e-mail addresses and zip codes with Vote.com and
have cast a total of more than 15 million votes. Vote.com is now
rated by Media Metrics and PC Data as one of the most trafficked Web
sites in the world.
As part of his work with Vote.com, Dick, along with his wife/lawyer
Eileen McGann founded Legalvote.com, an online jury focus group
service. They have conducted online focus groups in over 100 cases
and their clients include two of the top insurance companies in the
U.S. as well as many of the major plaintiff lawyers in the nation.
Dick has written four books. His 1997 best selling memoir of the
Clinton Administration was entitled "Behind the Oval Office, Winning
the Presidency in the Nineties." In 1999, he wrote a guide to
modern politics called "The New Prince: Machiavelli Updated for the
21st Century." In 2000, he wrote "Vote.com - A guide to the
Internet based politics of the future." His first book, "Bum Rap on
American Cities - The Real Causes of Urban Decay" was published in
1977.
His new book, "Power
Plays," is available at NewsMax.com. It sketches the careers of
twenty of history's leading figures and the strategies they used to
gain political power. It compares the successful and unsuccessful
strategies of men like Churchill, Clinton, Reagan, Lincoln, de
Gaulle, Truman, FDR, Tony Blair and many others.
Mr. Morris lives with his wife of 23 years, Eileen McGann, in
Connecticut and in New York City.

Richard Poe
A
New York Times-bestsellling author and cyberjournalist, Richard Poe
writes on liberty and libertarianism, as they relate to history,
politics and business. His book Black Spark, White Fire explores the
controversial theory that the ancient Egyptians were black and that
European civilization may have had its roots in ancient Egypt.
Unusually for a conservative, Poe takes a sympathetic stance toward
Afrocentrism.
In his current book, "The
Seven Myths of Gun Control,"
Poe cuts through the blizzard of anti-gun propaganda and uncovers
the truth about guns, crime, and freedom. He details the seven most
common arguments used by gun prohibitionists, debunking each one
with a wealth of statistical and legal data gleaned from top experts
in the field of guns and gun rights. You will discover that,
contrary to myth, the availability of guns leads to less crime, not
more; that guns do not pose a special threat to our children; and
that the Second Amendment is as vital to the lives and liberty of
modern Americans as it was in frontier times. You will also learn
how the current drive to further regulate and even outlaw firearms
is a point-blank assault not only on truth but on freedom as well.
Poe was editor of David Horowitz's
FrontPageMagazine.com from June 2000 to February 2002. He was also
formerly senior editor of Success, managing editor of the East
Village Eye and reporter for the New York Post. He is a regular
contributor to NewsMax.com.

Jack Wheeler
Dr.
Wheeler, a NewsMax.com Pundit, has had two parallel careers for many
years: one in the field of adventure and exploration as the owner
of Jack Wheeler Expeditions; the other in the field of political
and economic freedom as president of the Freedom Research
Foundation. Regarding the first, at age 12 he was honored in the
White House by President Eisenhower as the Youngest Eagle Scout in
the history of the Boy Scouts. He climbed the Matterhorn at age 14,
swam the Hellespont (LIFE Magazine 12/12/60) and lived with Amazon
headhunters at 16, hunted a man-eating tiger in Vietnam at 17,
started an export business in Vietnam at 19, and wrote The
Adventurer’s Guide (New York: Mackay, 1975), described by Merv
Griffin as “the definitive book for anyone wishing to lead a more
adventurous and exciting life.” He has three “first contacts” with
tribes never before contacted by the outside world: a clan of
Aushiri in the Amazon, the Wali-ali-fo in New Guinea, and a band of
Bushmen in the Kalahari. He has retraced Hannibal’s route over the
Alps with elephants; led numerous expeditions in Central Asia,
Tibet, Africa, the Amazon and elsewhere, including 18 expeditions to
the North Pole; and has been listed in The Guinness Book of World

Regarding the second, Dr.
Wheeler received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of

he began in the early 1980s a series of extensive visits to
anti-Soviet guerrilla insurgencies in Nicaragua, Angola, Mozambique,
Ethiopia, Cambodia, Laos, and Afghanistan, and to democracy
movements in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, becoming an
unofficial liaison between them and the Reagan White House. Based on
this, he developed the strategy for dismantling the Soviet Empire
adopted by the White House known as the "Reagan Doctrine." It
worked. The Freedom Research Foundation, founded by Dr. Wheeler in
1984, continues to provide information to a number of Congressional
offices on issues regarding political and economic freedom
throughout the world and in the United States.
Dr. Wheeler has been called
the "real Indiana Jones" by the Wall St. Journal, the "creator of
the Reagan Doctrine" by the Washington Post, and an "ideological
gangster" by the Soviet press. He has traveled to over 180 countries
and all seven continents, leads 2 to 3 expeditions a year, and is a
consultant to a number of international corporations on geopolitics
strategy.
