Alex Newman is an award-winning international journalist, educator,
author, speaker, investor, nationally syndicated radio host, and
consultant who seeks to glorify God in everything he does.
There is a silent struggle raging right now upon which the future of America and her liberties depends — literally. At its core, the struggle revolves around the next generation. Right now, government, church, and family are failing to properly shepherd the hearts and minds of children. Children are literally being sexualized, indoctrinated, dumbed down, and destroyed on an industrial scale. This must be stopped. Thankfully, it’s not too late to turn it around.
In addition to serving as president of Liberty Sentinel Media, Inc. and
hosting a nationally syndicated radio program, Alex has written for a wide
array of publications in the United States and abroad. He currently serves
as a contributor to the Epoch Times, a correspondent for the
Law Enforcement Intelligence Brief, foreign correspondent and
senior editor for The New American magazine, a writer for
WND, a contributor to Range magazine, an education
writer for FreedomProject Media, and a columnist for the Illinois Family
Institute.
