Jefferson Media Group
Top Dramas, Issue-Driven Shows, Comedies, Documentaries, Reality TV, and other Entertainment Content from People Who Love America FOR People who love America.
Our Story
Jefferson Media Group (JMG) is a Film, TV, Entertainment, and Distribution company that has been created by Hollywood industry professionals for the purpose of creating, acquiring, promoting, and distributing first rate TV Shows, Films, Music, and other Entertainment that proudly celebrates the Exceptional American Ideals that the majority of our country holds so dear.
Content from people who Love America FOR people who Love America.
Our values, backed by the Constitution and Bill of rights, are represented by freedom of speech, freedom of religion and religious tolerance, personal freedom and individual liberty, hard work, meritocracy, competition, the free-market and capitalism, self-reliance, equal opportunity (not outcome), a just legal system for everyone, charity and generosity, fairness, parental control over the education of our children, and a free and fair electorate. Paramount to us is the unwavering, steadfast support for the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These are just some amongst the many principles that we as a people cherish as Americans.
What We Do
Create Content
JMG has several original projects in development that are Comedies, Dramas, Reality TV, and more. The first show is slated to be Point to Point, an issue-driven weekly 1 hour that focuses on issues of the day, and features real discussion on both sides of an issue, without interruption.
License Content
JMG will license existing content as available that supports our mission – celebrating and promoting Exceptional American Values that make America the beacon of hope, personal success, and individual liberty.
Promote Content
JMG is determined to insure that all of its shows are promoted extensively to the potential viewership by budgeting sufficient monies and combining the powerful appropriate Conventional and Online entities to do so. This has often been sorely lacking with current programming that celebrate our values.
Distribute Content
JMG will launch Jefferson TV a OTT Streaming “Amazon-Type” service to distribute its content in VOD, Free Ad-based, and later subscription. We will also sub-license to other distributors as appropriate.
Promoting Our American Culture
In our mainstream media environment today, our founding principles appear to be constantly diminished by those who wish to permanently alter our culture. It’s not about just waving the flag. It’s about offering the kind of media that makes us remember how proud we are to be Americans, and makes us want to share it with others.
The sad truth is that America is not served and is actually weakened, bit by bit, as attempts in media and culture tries to conform America to the ideology of an elite few that is actively succeeding well in patiently indoctrinating those who are misguided by the rhetoric of “good intention for all”.
It is being accomplished by the Woke and Cancel Crowd trying to dominate the cultural narrative in America, and by endeavoring to weaken the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights that are the cornerstone of freedom and democracy in the U.S. and are the essential and unique American doctrines that exist as a blueprint for independence and freedom

Our Mission & Approach Highlights
Content for Americans
The majority of the American population – Centrists, “Right of Center”, Libertarians and Conservatives, is underserved in media today due to the hijacking of our culture by the woke and cancel crowd. This majority of Americans is desperate for content that entertains them and reflects their American values. It’s not about just waving the flag. It’s about offering the kind of media that makes us remember how proud we are to be Americans, and makes us want to share it with others.

Point to Point

It is committed to the honest, unbridled exchange of information on critical issues of the day. Point to Point is neither left nor right. It seeks to present both sides of an issue with highly qualified guests and gives them each enough time without interruption to present their case. At the end of the show, each guest will have an ability to respond to the other, and then YOU, the audience will be able to vote and comment on the side that most represents your own views.
Energy Independence vs. Climate Change, Parental Control vs. School Control of children’s classrooms, Socialism vs. Capitalism, Supply-Side vs Demand-Side Economics, and the Effect of Biology in Sports are just a few of the topics explored in Point to Point – this gripping weekly show represents some of the essential Exceptional American Ideals: Freedom of Speech, Expression, and Thought. Wokeists beware!
