Luke McCoy is a talk show host for the WCOA radio station. He hosts the "Pensacola Speaks" call-in show as well as the morning news program with Don Parker. He is married to Katherine Ann Felton-McCoy, an account executive with Cumulus Broadcasting, WCOA's parent company.
McCoy served in the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division and with the Marine Corps in Vietnam, where he was wounded in action.[1] He and callers frequently exchange the Marines greeting, "Semper Fi."
Known for his outspoken conservative views, McCoy describes himself as "the common man's intellectual." In 2006, he founded the organization WASPO in opposition to illegal immigration. He strongly opposed the Community Maritime Park project.
On May 18, 2007 McCoy stepped down as host of the "Pensacola Speaks" program. He offered no explanation for his departure except to say, "I've made some powerful enemies, and I thought it best for the station and all concerned that I step aside."[2] He returned (again without explanation) when the show resumed on June 11.
