The Tara Show

23

Tara presides over the Upstate's #1 all news/talk morning show every weekday on News/Talk 989 WORD.
Tara's faithful listeners are affectionately known as "Tara-ists" because of their passion and participation in the show.

Tara was named 2021 Best News Talk Show and Best overall Personality, AGAIN, by the South Carolina Broadcasters Association! Tara took home the same honors in 2018 and was also named 2016 "Personality of the Year!"

In addition, Tara has also won over two dozen state and national journalism awards for column writing, news reporting and investigative reporting while working for three newspapers and writing for a variety of national publications. She won a first place reporting award from the North Carolina Press Association for an investigative series about the weaknesses in Charlotte's overburdened court system, which regularly let murderers off the hook with less than 15 years in prison. Due to her work, that system has been reformed.

Tara is also a winner of the prestigious first place Green Eyeshade Award, a national award for column writing from The Society of Professional Journalists. Tara took to the airwaves about 15 years ago to do a radio show heard up and down the coast and fell in love with bypassing her editors to talk straight to the people. Tara hasn't stopped reporting, and still brings her investigative journalism to the show. Tara is a mom, wife and talk radio convert-- and weekday mornings she's live and local on News/Talk 989 WORD.

Are you a "Tara-ist"? It's time to get captured!

    I gave her a few chances because we need solid, reliable, authentic news sources but she really misses the mark. I had high hopes. But on many occasions she misrepresented data, had a very odd views of national events and seemed more focused on her opinion than the facts. Just extremely uninformed imo. On to the next one.

    Next best thing since Rush is gone.
    Tara is on the money on just about everything, she’s well prepared and you can tell she research’s well. She gets onto the Republicans as well. Keeps me informed about local things going on in my own backyard of SC as well. Great show!

    Absolute best political reporter/analyst
    I live across the country and I rely on Tara to clear the muddy political water for me because I just don’t have time to read it all. Hands down the BEST out there.

    Tara is among the best talk show hosts the news junkie has ever heard. She has incredible research skills and the ability to connect the dots to give her listeners the real story.
