Salem Radio Network reacted swiftly to the breach of security and shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday night. SRN VP of news & talk programming Tom Tradup says that SRN Special Reports were fed starting just four minutes after the first shots were fired and the president was evacuated from the head table by Secret Service agents. TOWNHALL.com’s Larry O’Connor went live on imgYouTube less than 20 minutes after the shots were fired with analysis and perspective including multiple videos from different angles, as well as his own experiences over the years attending D.C. events.
