Bill Press’s Speech Topics

  • Spin This!

    Based on his first book, Bill Press pokes fun at the wonderful world of spin. With insight and wit, he exposes the worst examples of political spin heard today from both Republicans and Democrats. But he also shows how spin colors every aspect of human behavior today, as practiced by preachers, salesmen, parents, lawyers, boyfriends and girlfriends.

  • Master of Ceremonies and Experienced Moderator

    If you’re looking for someone to keep your meeting running smoothly and on time, to moderate a panel or to conduct an important interview, Bill Press is your man. He serves as emcee and moderator for several important trade associations – and they invite him back every year.

  • The Great Debate

    Add colorful fireworks to your meeting. Stage your own “Crossfire” by squaring Bill Press off with a lively partner on the right, such as Pat Buchanan or Mike Murphy. They will inform, entertain and engage your audience in debating the issues of the day.

  • Faith and Politics

    A former seminarian with a degree in theology, as well as a radio/TV talk show host, Bill Press talks about one of the most important issues facing the nation: the intersection between faith and politics. Press argues that Republicans have “overdone” it, by making an unholy alliance with the religious right; but that Democrats have “underdone” it, by ignoring religion and appearing too secular. Referencing his acclaimed book, How the Republicans Stole Christmas, Press gives his formula for the correct mix of faith and politics.

  • How to Make Washington Work Again

    Everybody knows Washington is broken today: a do-nothing Congress; a powerless president; a divided Supreme Court. Can anybody save Washington, or is it too late? And what changes are necessary to make Washington work again? Commentator and talk show host Bill Press examines this provocative question – and finds the answer!
