Morrissey Gets Own Radio Show

REPOST from the Henrico Citizen

Former Henrico Delegate Joe Morrissey – a controversial figure in the Richmond region for several decades – has his own radio show.

The Fighting Joe Morrissey Show will air on WJFN 100.5 FM and WJFNRadio.com from 10 a.m. to noon each Tuesday through Friday. The show is part of a new news talk format for the station. It launched recently with longtime media executive and talk show host John Fredericks as its lead proprietor. The John Fredericks Show, simulcast from Washington, D.C., will air from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. weekdays. The show already appears in other Virginia markets; in Washington, D.C.; and in Jacksonville, Fla.

The remade station also will feature Virginia Free Radio with former state Delegate Chris Saxman, along with nationally-syndicated programs, such as the Dennis Prager Show, the Savage Nation, the Larry Elder Show, and the Joe Walsh Show.

“What makes WJFN unique is its commitment to providing an engaging, listener-oriented, interactive experience that enables audience members to directly connect in real time with the Virginia-based hosts of WJFN 100.5 FM programs, and its goal to showcase voices from both sides of the political spectrum to spark lively and ultimately productive conversations,” station executives wrote in an e-mail announcing the shift.

Fredericks served with his wife, Anne, as a national delegate to the 2016 Republican National Convention and was the Virginia Chairman of the Donald J. Trump for President Campaign that year.
