Obama Inaugural Ball Producer Joins DC’s All-News Radio Station

This week, Del Walters, a veteran local Washington, DC and Baltimore television reporter and anchor, who in January of 2009 served as executive producer of “Virginia's Inaugural Black Tie and Blue Dominion Ball” starring actress Jenna Elfman and the Commodores (NB item), joined the on-air anchor team for Washington, DC’s Bonneville International-owned all-news radio station affiliated with CBS News. The ball's home page shouted: “A Celebration of a Dream Fulfilled!”

“Wasn't that local TV veteran Del Walters anchoring on all-news WTOP yesterday evening?” Dave Hughes asked Friday on his DCRTV.com site. “Sources say that the former Channel 7/WJLA and Channel 2/WMAR anchor starts a ‘regular presence’ on WTOP this week. A top TOPer says that Walters will be doing ‘fill-in’ work.”

In a 2007 novel, The Race, Walters imagined a black U.S. President “hated by every extremist group that can still hold a gun license” whose life is threatened by the KKK and Vatican-connected conspirators afraid he will demand reparations payments. From Amazon.com’s summary of the book:

....He is hated by every extremist group that can still hold a gun license. The Klan put a bounty on his head, and militias see him as a threat to the second amendment, but it is an invisible overseas enemy that has proven to be deadliest of all. A shadowy group known as 'The Consortium,' with ties to the Vatican, and a history that dates back to the Lincoln Assassination, has vowed to either control Baron James...or kill him. The group has one point four trillion reasons to want James dead. That's the price tag attached to a slavery reparations lawsuit creeping through the courts. 'The Consortium' fears because Baron James is black he would shepherd the lawsuit through the judicial system and ruin their centuries old hold on power. Power that can directly be traced to the trafficking of human beings we know as slavery....
