A newspaper story about the late TheRx.com and EOG.com founder Ken "The Shrink" Weitzner that featured interviews with two Gambling911.com writers is having reverberations around the country.

The story, by Kristin Grace Davis, appeared in the Virginian-Pilot (www.pilotonline.com), a Norfolk, Virginia newspaper, on Sunday, July 4, 2010, and included comments from Gambling911.com writers Tom Somach and Chris Costigan.

On Thursday, July 8, 2010, Somach and Davis will be interviewed about the story on a Los Angeles radio station.

Among other things, Somach and Davis will discuss a controversial taped interview Somach did with Weitzner in 2007 for a radio appearance on the Business Talk Radio Network. Davis, in researching her article, requested to hear the one-hour taped interview and Somach played it for her over the phone.

Somach and Davis will be interviewed live Thursday by Fred Wallin, host of "Sports Parade," a daily radio show on KCAA AM 1050 that airs from 5-6 p.m. Pacific Time (8-9 p.m. Eastern Time).

The show can be heard live via the KCAA website (www.kcaaradio.com) and any time afterwards as the show is archived.

Listeners are invited to call the program toll-free at 1-888-909-1050 and ask Somach and Davis questions about Weitzner,    who killed himself in April after making millions of dollars from a pair of sports betting portals
