Just got a press release from the North Dakota Petroleum Council announcing that Sean Hannity of Fox News and talk radio fame will be visiting western North Dakota.

He’ll be coming to the annual Williston Basin Petroleum Conference, and he will be broadcasting his radio and television shows from there.

Tickets are available for $25 to see him speak (according to the release that won’t get you into the rest of the conference). Here are all the details I was sent. Full registration/agenda info is on the WBPC website.

Bismarck, N.D. – Sean Hannity, host of Premiere Radio Networks’ The Sean Hannity Show and FOX News’ Hannity with Sean Hannity, will be a keynote speaker at the 22nd Annual Williston Basin Petroleum Conference. Hannity will join several oil and gas industry leaders and CEOs to address this year’s theme, “Bakken Strong,” and discuss the role oil and gas has in strengthening our state and nation’s economy, job growth and energy security.

“I care about this great country and believe in the American dream,” said Hannity. “I am thrilled to support the effort to make America energy independent, and get America back to work.”

His program offers a mix of news, commentary, and guest interviews. The Sean Hannity Radio Show, is syndicated to more than 500 radio stations and has a listenership that spans the millions.

Hannity is also the author of three New York Times #1 Best-Selling books.

“We are thrilled to host Sean Hannity at this year’s conference,” said Ron Ness, president of the North Dakota Petroleum Council. “Hannity has traveled the nation and has a keen understanding of how places like North Dakota and the Bakken can drive growth, innovation, energy security and the revival of rural America.”

In addition to speaking at the conference, Hannity will record segments for his radio and television programs from the conference and western North Dakota during a tour of the Bakken with Billings County Commissioner and industry leader Jim Arthaud of MBI Energy Services. Hannity agreed to come to the WBPC after interviewing Arthaud on his radio program.
