Ronn Owens Winner of the 2003 Marconi Radio Award for Major Market Personality of the Year
"Throughout the many years I’ve known Ronn Owens, I’ve developed a deep respect for his knowledge of issues and for his uncommon common touch. There are many great things I can say about Ronn, but the thing I admire most about him is his fairness. And our public discourse is the better for it."
–U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman (D-CT)
"Whether you find yourself agreeing with him much of the time or not, Ronn Owens is never dull or given to predictable knee-jerk opinions. On the contrary, you can always rely on him to be interesting and fair, and to challenge stereotypes on the right and left in pursuit of answers to problems that many others exploit to deepen the divisions in the country."
–U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ)
"I have known Ronn Owens for over 20 years, and I have the utmost respect for him. Many radio talk show hosts today come from the far right or the far left. Ronn Owens does not. He bases his decisions on reason and common sense."
–U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)
"Ronn Owens is a corner store for common sense. He’s got the smart good part of liberalism and the smart tough part of conservatism. He’s street smart, well-read, and gives a damn."
–Chris Matthews, host of Hardball on MSNBC and The Chris Matthews Show on CNBC
"Ronn Owens is not left or right and surely is not always wrong! But he sure does make you think."
–Tim Russert, host of Meet the Press
"People want to order a la carte. They don’t want the dinner either party offers. An appetizer of pro-choice shouldn’t mean a second course of high taxes. You shouldn’t have to swallow the NRA’s baloney to bring your taxes down. This is what Ronn Owens is all about–neither party, neither ideology, just common sense and political independence."
–Dick Morris, FOX News Channel Political Analyst
