East Texas country music artist Neal McCoy recently announced the postponement of his scheduled television appearance on Fox & Friends. The reason for this cancellation, as stated in a video posted on his Facebook page, is the breaking news surrounding the capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. McCoy, who was already in New York for the TV show, did not provide a new date for his appearance.
Impact on Upcoming Events
Along with the cancellation of his Fox appearance, it remains uncertain how this breaking news will affect other scheduled events, interviews, and appearances this week. McCoy is expected to highlight the 10th anniversary of his daily Pledge of Allegiance recitation, a tradition he began in 2016.
As he continues his activities, McCoy plans to keep his fans updated through his Facebook page, “Neal McCoy Multi-Platinum Country Artist.” In a recent post, he expressed his commitment to explore other opportunities while in New York. He urged fans to inform others about the change in his TV schedule.
Celebrating a Decade of the Pledge
For the past ten years, Neal McCoy has recited the Pledge of Allegiance daily, engaging with fans through livestreams. He started this initiative on January 7, 2016, to combat the political tensions he observed on television. What began as a singular post has transformed into a cherished ritual for many across the nation.
As of now, McCoy is on day 3,648 of his daily recitation, often sharing these moments from his ranch near East Mountain or during tour stops. This week, he plans to recite the pledge from the East Coast in preparation for various media appearances, including on NewsMax and One America News Network.
Upcoming Appearances
- Fox & Friends (Time TBD)
- NewsMax – Tuesday, Noon to 1 PM
- One America News Network (Dates TBD)
White House Visit
On January 7, McCoy will recite the Pledge of Allegiance at the White House. This special event is coordinated with the help of his publicist, Kirt Webster. McCoy hopes this appearance will inspire more followers to join him on social media and participate in the pledge.
Currently, McCoy boasts over 1 million followers on Facebook, where he shares updates and aims to foster a sense of community. He envisions reciting the pledge in front of one of the large flag poles recently installed by President Trump, which he believes will enhance the experience for his followers.
Limited Edition Flags
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of his Pledge of Allegiance recitation, McCoy has teamed up with Allied Flag to create a limited-edition flag commemorating America’s 250th anniversary. These flags, which will feature McCoy’s likeness, are set to begin shipping on January 7, with autographed boxes available for direct purchases on his website.
McCoy’s Motivation
At its core, McCoy’s daily recitation is meant to unite people, transcending political divides. He believes in showing respect for the flag and the country, instilling these values from his upbringing. His own father served in the Army Corps of Engineers, and McCoy expresses gratitude for the freedoms afforded to him and his fellow citizens.
Many viewers, including those who are ill or elderly, have shared how much they appreciate his daily streams. McCoy aims to continue this tradition, marking his 10-year milestone as a significant achievement, even without a specific endpoint in mind.
