John Sie, founder and former Chairman & CEO, STARZ Entertainment Group. “The Aaron Harber Show" offers our nation a desperately needed, fact-based forum for civil discourse and problem-resolution.  By featuring the world's most prominent guests sharing their perspectives across the political spectrum, the program objectively informs viewers so they can come to their own conclusions.  Aaron's extraordinary depth of knowledge, experience, and wit allow him to probe at deeper levels while simultaneously entertaining his ever-expanding audience."

Clark Bunting, President of The DISCOVERY Channel.  “What sets Aaron apart is his remarkably diplomatic approach --- asking the tough questions most hosts shy away from and then, without offending his guests, adroitly eliciting surprisingly candid and often profound answers.”

Joseph Koker, President, Television Station Group, ION MEDIA NETWORKS. "'The Aaron Harber Show' continues to win kudos from all sectors of the political spectrum.  The nonpartisan and non-confrontational forum he anchors provides for a free-flowing discussion of important issues of the day. This makes his show timely, educational and entertaining.”

Richard Buchanan, Vice President & General Manager of Content Services, COMCAST. “As a result of the credibility Aaron has amassed through his nonpartisan reputation for seeking the truth, he uniquely fills the void in the programming landscape dominated by polarizing political commentary which simply echoes the point of view of  its audience.  Because Aaron reaches people across the entire political spectrum and provides them with accurate and balanced information, ‘The Aaron Harber Show’ has the potential to be transformational at a time the Media urgently needs to meet the obligations of the Fourth Estate.”

Aaron is recognized for facilitating civil debate among diverse guests. The show’s relaxed style, long-form structure, and variety of personalities make it both entertaining and educational.

With degrees from Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public & International Affairs (where he concentrated in Economics) and Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government (where his focus was on ethics in government, business, and politics as well as on campaign finance regulation in all 50 states), Aaron’s background combines expertise in international affairs, economics, law, business, and politics.

An ardent defender of the First Amendment and equal rights, Aaron gained national recognition when he was sued frivolously for $20 million by Rush Limbaugh, et al, for using the word "Rush" in the title of his national radio program ("After the Rush"). With support across the political spectrum, Aaron prevailed in the federal court case. He used humor throughout the event as he does on his television show and thanked Rush for promoting his career.

When Aaron started in Talk Radio, the industry's leading publication -- "TALKERS MAGAZINE" -- selected him out of 5,000 hosts across the country as one of America's “100 Most Important Talk Show Hosts” (along with others such as Don Imus, G. Gordon Liddy, Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Laura Schlesinger, Howard Stern, and Bruce Williams).

In 1998, Aaron moved from the Talk America Radio Network (where he was heard on 51 radio stations nationally) exclusively into the television arena. “The Aaron Harber Show” premiered on Colorado Public Television (KBDI-TV) in 2002.

Aaron has appeared on and hosted a number of television and radio programs. He is a columnist for “The Colorado Statesman,” and “The Huffington Post” (www.HuffingtonPost.com/aaron-harber) and has been included in numerous national publications.
