LOS ANGELES, Ca. — America’s largest progressive news network, TYT, announced that one of its news and politics shows ‘Indisputable with Dr. Rashad Richey’ achieved over 1 million podcast downloads. This puts the show in the top 5% of all podcasts among listeners. Most recently the show was named “America’s Fastest Growing Television News Show” by HEG, Inc. The LA Monitor has been watching the rise of Dr. Richey’s media career since his appearance on TYT roughly 3 years ago.
With 160 million views monthly for the national linear cable TV opinion news show ‘Indisputable’, and noted as the top talk radio personality in Atlanta, Georgia (The Rashad Richey Morning Show on News & Talk 1380 WAOK and V-103FM HD3) by readers of Atlanta Magazine and Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and his show, ‘Dr. Rashad Richey Review’ on SiriusXM’s Urban View Channel 126, Dr. Richey is fast becoming a household name nationally.
Established as the premier voice for this generation, Dr. Richey, who is also a noted scholar and university professor, provides sincere and intellectual commentary on complex political, policy, and social issues domestically and abroad. Holding multiple advanced degrees, including completing doctoral studies in federal policy reform from Clark Atlanta University, an MBA from Beulah Heights University, master’s degree in applied physics and quantum mechanics from UNEM University, to name a few, Dr. Richey provides lectures for top institutions like University of Michigan, Morehouse School of Medicine, Morris Brown College, and Reinhardt University. Currently completing his law degree at Birmingham School of Law, Dr. Richey was named, “one of the most academically-credentialed individuals in American history,” by the national publication America News Now.
The show dives into pressing news and provides exclusive reporting, thoughtful debates, insightful commentary, and a heavy dose of fact-based truth daily. Unafraid to report on controversial stories, Dr. Richey has become a “go-to” person for members of law enforcement who seek him out to help expose corruption.
United States Senator Jon Ossoff, who sits on the powerful Homeland Security Committee and chaired the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, credited Dr. Richey’s journalism as, “…fulfilling your public obligation to bring facts into public light and into the awareness of policymakers that indicate a possible pattern of abuse, misconduct, and racism – brought it to my attention, I referred it to the DOJ.”
Sen. Ossoff was referring to Dr. Richey’s exclusive reporting on allegations of misconduct at Victorville Prison in California. Through Dr. Richey’s reporting, not only did the Department of Justice get involved, the family publicly thanked Richey for his fearless advocacy and reporting.
Through popular segments like ‘I Wish a Karen Would’ and exclusive reporting, ‘Indisputable with Dr. Rashad Richey’, has become a trusted source for news consumers. Part of this success is the connection Dr. Richey has built with his audience, the quality of the content, and the push to drive positive change. Dr. Richey has become a trusted voice in the pursuit of justice; he investigated and broke exclusive stories as a result of tips received from the audience.
One example is Dr. Richey obtained exclusive footage of five jail officials brutalizing Jarrett Hobbs in a jail cell at the Camden County Jail in the City of New Brunswick, Georgia.
Hobbs told ‘Indisputable’, “I really thought I was going to lose my life that night. That was the only thing I was telling myself, was ‘don’t fall to the ground,’ because you know that’s how George Floyd died. So, that’s why I would not fall to the ground even though I had five or six officers on me. It could have been the last day of my life.”
Dr. Richey’s exclusive reporting and commentary on Jarrett Hobbs went viral on social media for shedding light on police abuse. Mr. Hobbs was granted a major settlement, all charges against him were dropped, and the officers involved in the brutal attack have all been indicted.
‘Indisputable’ broadcasts live weekdays from 2:30 p.m. – 4 p.m. EST on the TYT Network, which includes multiple national linear cable TV platforms; Comcast Xfinity, Xfinity Flex, Roku Channel, Pluto TV, Xumo, Local Now, Fubo TV, and more.
