Jeff Rense is an American radio talk-show host and conspiracy theorist. His show, Jeff Rense Program, was formerly broadcast via satellite radio and remains available online.[1][2]
Rense's radio program and website promote views such as 9/11 conspiracy theories,[3] UFO reporting, paranormal phenomena, creation of diseases, chemtrails, evidence of advanced ancient technology, emergent energy technologies, and alternative medicine.
Rense's writings and website have been deemed anti-semitic by the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Poverty Law Center.[4][5]
Radio host
Rense's first on-air experience came while he was a student at University of California, Santa Barbara. In 1994 Rense self-financed a radio show on Santa Barbara's KTMS. The show was originally broadcast as Sightings on the Radio, the title being a direct reference to the television series Sightings. Around the year 2000 all references to Sightings were dropped and the current title was adopted.
The show was originally distributed by Premiere Radio Networks but was dropped in the late 1990s. Genesis Communications Network took over distribution and carried the show through August 2009 when Rense pulled the show from the network, accusing fellow GNC host Alex Jones of threatening his family.[6] Jeff Rense Program is now streamed through Rense's personal website.
