Friday evening (6/9)  Salem Radio Network talk host Mike Gallagher (pictured 3rd from left) hosted listeners from Chicago, Dallas, Philadelphia and South Carolina at the annual “American Spirit Awards Gala” in New Orleans.

The black-tie event celebrates individuals and organizations whose work reflects the values and spirit of those who served our country during the World War II years. Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw– author of the book “The Greatest Generation”–was emcee for the sold-out gala.

Each Gallagher listener donated $3,500 to the National World War II Museum in New Orleans to attend Friday evening’s gala.

WJQK/Grand Rapids PD Ace McKay tells HisAir.Net he will be leaving the station. Ace says “I’m moving south to help take care of my dad who’s been ill”.

 Nielsen Audio May release is scheduled to start later today (6/12). Markets include New York, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas and others. See all the April numbers here.  Christian Radio Ratings are sponsored by ShareMedia Services.
