  • Unbiased Daily News

    Thanks Brad. I began listening to Start Here over a year ago. Throughout the recent election and the first part of the new presidency, this ABC crew has presented unbiased reporting of the daily information. This is refreshing no matter which side of the aisle one stands on. All of the other news sources seem to blame and bash one side or the other for everything.
