Powerful Message for America that Every American Should Hear!

In this interview: Academy Award winning actor Jon Voight gives a very eloquent and beautiful speech that calls out to the entire world to come together in Peace and Love for your neighbor, no matter what their skin color, religion, gender, nationality or political beliefs may be!  Everyone must stop and really listen, so that you understand everyone else’s point of view- no matter how much you may disagree with them- otherwise we can never evolve to a higher level of living in peace and harmony with all points of view in life, on our shared planet earth – which is home to all of us! This is the worst time ever with a worldwide Pandemic disease, with the Coronavirus Epidemic! So from his heart Jon asks for all the fighting and killings to stop, and that our country can come together in Peace and Love ! 

For 30 years Jon Voight has been a kind soul, and has always given a lot to our TV shows: Entertainment & Sports Today, and Entertainment Today over those many years. He must have been on our shows over 40 times, and has always given us a lot of his time for interviews at some of the biggest events in showbiz! The Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes, SAG, Grammys, Film Festivals, Movie Premieres, Galas and Special Events – Jon always had time for us, and was always a good man to everyone!

One of the first times that I can still remember that I was privileged enough to interview Jon Voight personally as a reporter was in May of 1995 in Dallas, Texas at the Video Software Dealers Association Convention (VSDA), where during the interview he said ” I give my heart and soul, my sweat, and my blood to Entertainment & Sports Today” – John has always been a kind and giving man!

Then on Sunday September 17th of 1995 at the Grand Opening of Planet Hollywood in Beverly Hills, California, with as Oprah Winfrey said “There must be about 1800 stars here – more stars than The Oscars, Emmys, and Grammys all put together!” – They roped off all of Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, for a giant celebrity block party that was the most spectacular grand opening Gala in the history of restaurants, movie premiers, award shows, conventions, music and sporting events, and special events in the history of showbiz and the entire Entertainment world! In the after party there was an amazing concert put on by Bruce Willis, Danny DeVito and the legendary Rock & Roll Music Icon: Chuck Berry – who gave the performance of a lifetime with the greatest musical concert performance in any after party – in the history of showbiz! – Go, Johnny Go! & of course Jon Voight was there to again give me an amazing interview – which that interview together with this whole event- I will never forget!
