Encyclopedia
Conservative Roundtable, hosted by Howard Phillips, is a weekly political television program
produced by The Conservative Caucus
. Howard Phillips is the founder and chairman of The Conservative Caucus. The U.S. Taxpayers Party
was founded during the show's second season.
It is aired weekly on over 100 channels
nationwide, mostly on Public, educational, and government access
(PEG) cable TV channels.
The show seeks to provide in-depth and critical analysis of important political issues, striving to be like Meet the Press
but without what it sees as that program's liberal bias. Conservative Roundtable discusses what it perceives as liberal
threats to freedom and highlights conservative
values and solutions.
A spin-off
program, Face The Truth, was hosted by Stephen Peroutka from March 2003-2005 (32 episodes). Peroutka, a member of the Board of Directors of The Conservative Caucus at the time, focused exclusively on pro-life
and family values
issues, and featured some of the top activists and leaders promoting an end to abortion.
Conservative Roundtable may be placed on local Public-access television
channels without charge by local residents, and is available for broadcast on any television or radio broadcast station or cable/satellite network.
