Bio

Greg Bishop was born in 1983 in St. Charles Missouri, the youngest of six siblings. Later in life he moved to central Illinois where he continues his education in communications and political studies at the University of Illinois at Springfield. 

An aspiring journalist, Greg works hard to develop skills in finding truth and coordinating action. He long felt there was a different story behind what was being presented. With the help of alternative media, he was led to uncover, under-covered news stories; things you rarely catch in the mainstream.

What he found was an increasing web of dots that continue to connect.

What is globalization? Why is the Republican Party not conservative? Is our public sphere dying? Why is the mainstream not talking about important issues to individual liberty?

Greg Bishop has spent tireless hours researching topics that range from the elite secret societies to the mainstreams media's conglomeration and oligopoly. With the support from his high school sweet heart, Meghan Harmon, Greg has developed the skills to further his endeavor for truth.

With a desire to disseminate information in massive amounts, Bishop did not know where to start. He began taking journalism classes and getting involved with Springfield's Capitol Area Career Center and their student radio station 88.3 FM The Edge WQNA. There, he brushed up on his on air skills.

During this stage in Bishop's just beginning career, he found himself listening to talk radio at every moment that he could, flipping through the major news networks routinely and also reading anything and everything he could get his hands on while surfing the world wide web.

Bishop was presented a godsend. Springfield Illinois' leading rock station 92.7 WQLZ was having a survivor-type recruitment program called Project Zero Talent. Knowing that WQLZ was operated by Mid-West Family Broadcasting which also opperates Springfield's leading AM talk station, 970 WMAY, Bishop jumped at the chance to become a member of the locally owned and operated Mid-West Family team.

After joining Mid-West Family Broadcasting, Bishop was given many excellent opportunities. He was privileged to be a part QLZ's Morning Freak Show with Val Knight, Mikey Austin and Bodine and later was graced by co-hosting Davis and Company on 970 WMAY with former Illinois congressman Jack Davis.

Bishop was also given an opportunity to host a Saturday talk show on the best talk radio station in Springfield Illinois. Here he has been since June 2006 with Saturday Session bringing many topics into public discussion.

The 2008 presidential race also put Bishop on a roller coaster of a ride. The only viable candidate within the two party paradigm, in Bishop's eyes, was Ron Paul. Pre-primary canvasing work while attending school full-time and running as a Ron Paul delegate was a crash coarse in grassroots politics for Bishop. To this day, Greg is the Sangamon County organizer for the Campaign for Liberty and interning at WMAY news while working on a BA in Communications with a Minor in Political Studies at the University of Illinois at Springfield.
