General Atomics Onshores Critical Silicon Carbide Technology to Help Power America’s Nuclear Future

By Media News

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / December 18, 2025 / General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems (GA-EMS) is developing scalable, energy-efficient domestic manufacturing processes for silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic matrix composites, offering a U.S.-made solution for a material identified by the Department of Energy (DOE) as critical to advanced energy applications.

GA-EMS fabrication processes deliver high-quality SiC fiber and ceramic matrix composites through a faster, more affordable process. SiC is a strong, light, and heat-resistant material with major potential for nuclear, turbine and aerospace systems. However, its use has been limited by high material costs and reliance on foreign sources. GA-EMS is expanding access to this important material for demanding energy and aerospace applications by building a domestic supply chain and streamlining production.

“Silicon carbide unlocks enormous potential for the future of nuclear energy, turbine systems, and aerospace platforms,” said Scott Forney, president of GA‑EMS. “Its strength‑to‑weight ratio, thermal stability, and resistance to extreme environments make it ideal for advanced propulsion, hypersonics, and space systems. By onshoring SiC fiber production and improving scalability and cost‑effectiveness, we’re making this essential material more accessible for critical energy applications today, while opening pathways for future aerospace innovation.”

GA-EMS is executing two programs funded by the Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO) of the DOE. Recent demonstrations include a SiC fiber process that is compatible with continuous production, which can reduce the production cost of domestic SiC fiber by 60%, as well as the utilization of automated fiber placement (AFP) to form complex SiC ceramic matrix composite structures. Together with a hybrid densification process, the team fabricated dense, high-purity SiC/SiC composites 70% faster and with 80% less energy than traditional chemical vapor infiltration.

GA-EMS’s work demonstrates a practical path toward U.S.-based manufacturing of silicon carbide materials. By reducing production costs and energy use, the company is helping enable broader deployment of advanced energy systems while contributing to long-term supply chain reliability.

The Executive's Guide to Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Being Found in 2026 and Beyond

By Media News

How to Rank 1st in AI Search

POST FALLS, IDAHO / ACCESS Newswire / December 18, 2025 / Trustpoint Xposure has released a new executive-level ebook designed to help organizations rank as the cited answer in AI-powered search platforms such as ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, and voice assistants. The ebook provides a practical, step-by-step framework for Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and visibility in zero-click search environments through 2026 and beyond.

What is the Ebook About?

How Do I Rank 1st in AI Search? The Executive’s Guide to Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Being Found in 2026 and Beyond explains how AI answer engines discover, evaluate, and cite trusted sources. It shows leaders how to structure content, data, and authority signals so AI platforms recognize their brand as the best answer for high-intent questions.

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the process of structuring digital content so AI systems can easily find, understand, and cite a brand as the definitive answer to user queries. Unlike traditional search engine optimization, AEO focuses on zero-click visibility, direct citations, and AI-generated answers rather than website rankings alone.

Why AEO Matters Now

Search behavior has shifted rapidly toward AI-generated answers. Users increasingly expect immediate, direct responses without clicking through multiple websites. Brands that are not structured for AI discovery risk losing visibility across the fastest-growing segment of search.

Industry data shows:

  • AI answers now appear before traditional website listings in a majority of searches

  • AI-powered search usage has grown more than 500 percent year over year

  • Google AI Overviews reach billions of users globally

  • AI-sourced traffic converts at significantly higher rates than traditional search traffic

The ebook positions AEO not as a future trend, but as an active requirement for digital visibility today.

AEO vs SEO: A Critical Shift

The ebook clearly outlines the difference between SEO and AEO. SEO helps users find websites, while AEO determines which brand AI platforms cite as the trusted answer. In a zero-click environment, visibility depends less on rankings and more on structured authority, clarity, and extractable answers.

Key distinctions covered include:

  • SEO depends on clicks; AEO wins without clicks

  • SEO focuses on keywords; AEO focuses on questions and answers

  • SEO is crowded; AEO remains an early-adopter opportunity

What Readers Will Learn

The ebook walks readers through a seven-step AEO framework, including:

  • Auditing digital presence for AI readiness

  • Identifying the questions AI engines prioritize

  • Filling content gaps that prevent citation

  • Implementing advanced schema markup

  • Creating authoritative, extractable answers

  • Building media and authority signals AI systems trust

Each step is designed to reduce AI uncertainty and increase the likelihood of being cited as the answer.

Industry-Specific Insights

The guide includes tailored AEO insights for industries where trust, accuracy, and authority are critical, including law, finance, technology, and startups. These sections explain why AI engines elevate structured, citation-ready content in high-risk and high-intent search categories.

About Trustpoint Xposure

Trustpoint Xposure is a strategic visibility and authority firm focused on media, public relations, and Answer Engine Optimization. The company helps brands become discoverable, credible, and citable across AI-powered search platforms by aligning content, data, and authority signals with how modern answer engines operate.

Availability

How Do I Rank 1st in AI Search? is now available through Trustpoint Xposure. For more information about the ebook or AEO strategy services, visit the official Trustpoint Xposure website.

The promotions reflect a year of significant growth and client impact, driven in part by Marka+, Greenough’s brand strategy engine.

Under her leadership, Greenough has established a differentiated integrated model where brand strategy, campaign development, PR and executive visibility operate as one – a major factor in why clients are choosing Greenough over traditional PR-only or branding shops.

Additionally, Lauren Jackson has been elevated to Vice President of Finance and Operations, ensuring operational rigor and clarity as the agency continues to grow.

"As our CEO has said, this is the strongest PR collaboration he has experienced in over 15 years," said Gerardo A. Dada, CMO and Field CTO at Catchpoint. "Greenough is a true strategic partner for us. Their approach has made our thought leadership sharper, bolder, and more influential over the last few years we have worked together. Their work has had a significant influence on how customers understand the value we bring to the market and how the company is perceived."

This year, Greenough expanded client partnerships across its core sectors, including new relationships with organizations such as InMarket, QuidelOrtho and Integrity Growth Partners. The agency was also named a 2025 Inc. Power Partner Award Winner and recognized as a Ragan Top Places to Work in Communications.

CBMJ: The JD Rucker Show Returns to Patriot.TV – "2026 Is a Pivotal Year for America" – Reuniting Network with Flagship Voice Ahead of Defining Election Cycle

By Media News

Patriot.TV (CBMJ) growth exceeds Disney (DIS), Paramount Global (PARA), Comcast (CMCSA), Newsmax (NMAX), Sinclair (SBGI), Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD), and Fox Corp. (FOX).

ATLANTA, GEORGIA / ACCESS Newswire / December 18, 2025 / Conservative Broadcast Media & Journalism, Inc. (CBMJ) (OTCID:CBMJ) today announced the return of "The JD Rucker Show" to its Patriot.TV platform, marking a major milestone for the growing conservative media network as the nation heads into what many believe will be one of the most consequential years in modern American history.

Hosted by veteran journalist and media entrepreneur JD Rucker, The JD Rucker Show will once again serve as a flagship program on Patriot TV, delivering hard-hitting analysis, investigative commentary, and faith-aware perspectives on politics, economics, culture, and global affairs. Its highly anticipated return comes at a time of accelerating geopolitical tension, domestic unrest, economic uncertainty, and a rapidly approaching 2026 midterm election cycle.

"2026 is a pivotal year for America," said JD Rucker. "What happens between now and then will determine whether this nation continues its slide toward centralized control and cultural decay, or whether Americans finally reclaim their constitutional republic. Patriot TV is the right home for this fight, and I’m honored to bring the show back."

The program will tackle issues often ignored or downplayed by legacy media. Topics on the agenda include border security, election integrity, globalism, censorship, economic instability, digital surveillance, and even the spiritual dimension behind many of today’s political battles. Rucker’s approach blends investigative skepticism with moral clarity, offering audiences both information and context as the stakes continue to rise.

Company leadership notes that reinstating this marquee show aligns with Patriot TV’s strategic growth plans heading into 2026. Bringing back The JD Rucker Show is expected to:

  • Strengthen Patriot TV’s content lineup with a proven, high-engagement program to drive further viewership growth and subscriber retention.

  • Capitalize on heightened political interest ahead of the 2026 elections, expanding the platform’s user base as Americans seek alternative media outlets.

  • Attract advertisers and sponsorships by bolstering audience engagement and loyalty through the return of a flagship voice.

  • Reinforce the company’s mission and brand as a go-to source for truth-based, faith-informed commentary at a time when trust in legacy media continues to erode.

Patriot TV executives emphasize that Rucker’s homecoming underscores the network’s commitment to elevating voices that challenge establishment narratives and speak directly to audiences hungry for truth. "JD Rucker has always been one of the most fearless and discerning voices in conservative media," said a Patriot TV spokesperson. "As we head into 2026, his return strengthens our mission to inform, equip, and activate Americans who refuse to surrender their country."

This announcement comes on the heels of significant momentum for Patriot TV. Under JD Rucker’s leadership as an executive, the platform rapidly expanded its content roster and achieved record audience metrics in 2025. In October 2025, Patriot.TV surpassed 2 million monthly views on Rumble for the first time, reaching this milestone a full year ahead of the company’s original projections. This breakout performance signals that Patriot.TV’s audience growth is now outpacing many legacy media competitors, including much larger networks like Disney (DIS), Paramount (PARA), Comcast (CMCSA), Newsmax (NMAX), Sinclair (SBGI), Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD), and Fox Corp (FOX). The network’s momentum comes as public trust in establishment media continues to erode, with viewers increasingly seeking faith-aligned, truth-based content. By reuniting with one of its most popular voices, Patriot.TV aims to further accelerate its growth and engagement heading into the 2026 election cycle.

The JD Rucker Show will feature Rucker’s signature monologues, expert interviews, breaking news analysis, and deep dives into the stories shaping the future of the United States. New episodes will be available across Patriot TV’s streaming platforms and distributed through its broader digital media ecosystem, ensuring the show’s impactful content reaches audiences wherever they consume media.

About JD Rucker: JD Rucker is a journalist, commentator, President of Patriot.TV, and founder of multiple independent media outlets. Known for his investigative approach and principled conservatism, Rucker has built a reputation for challenging power, exposing corruption, and addressing the spiritual forces shaping modern politics. He also holds an executive leadership role at Patriot TV, where he has helped spearhead the platform’s rapid growth in audience and content.

Mischief, Laughter, and Life lessons in Gaye Roark's Latest Book

By Media News

In her latest story, Gaye Roark shares the mischievous adventures of Josh and the scarecrow that comes to life.

MILTON KEYNES, UK / ACCESS Newswire / December 18, 2025 / Children’s literature gains a new addition this December with the upcoming release of Josh, and Edgar Blenkinsop, a humorous story written by Gaye Roark.

Josh and Edgar Blenkinsop tells the story of nine-year-old Josh and his unusual companion, Edgar Blenkinsop, a comical and often grumpy scarecrow who comes to life when no one else is watching.

Their friendship leads to a series of playful misadventures, from mischievous pranks on Josh’s older sisters to secret missions only known to his dog, Sally, and Edgar.

Despite his efforts to be well-behaved, Edgar constantly finds himself in humorous trouble, while Josh’s imaginative exploits reveal a child navigating both fun and responsibility.

The book aims to capture the joy and laughter of childhood while subtly addressing themes of friendship, creativity, and resilience.

Gaye Roark’s firsthand experience of serious illness shapes the story’s focus on emotional well-being and the necessity of managing stress, especially for children navigating a fast-paced, technology-driven world.

"In our ever-changing world stress levels seem to be higher than ever and my sympathies particularly lie with children. It isn’t easy being a child in these days of change. It’s a curious fact that an age of technological progress seems to have hijacked the minds of our children where phones, tablets or computers claim far too much of their attention.

"However, through life experience, I have discovered that humour is an antidote to stress. Hence, I have written books that seek to make children laugh, encourage them away from their phones for a while, and feel the benefits and joy of simply reading." said Gaye.

Gaye who trained and worked as a nurse later in life, specialising in radiology and coronary care, has extensive experience helping patients cope with serious illness through relaxation therapy and stress management.

She has also contributed widely to health publications, highlighting the psychological benefits of humour and relaxation.

Josh, and Edgar Blenkinsop is targeted at children aged 7-12 and is designed to entertain while encouraging young readers to engage with imaginative stories and explore life lessons in a lighthearted way.

The book will be available from 19th December 2025 in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle formats.

The release is published by UK-based Maple Publishers, a company known for supporting imaginative and engaging works in literature, with book cover design, illustrations, and book layout by White Magic Studios.

Trustpoint Xposure has launched a dedicated Authority Video Division designed to help brands increase credibility, visibility, and citation across AI-ranked search results, digital media platforms, and expert-driven content ecosystems.

POST FALLS, IDAHO / ACCESS Newswire / December 18, 2025 / The new division focuses on producing high-quality, authority-first video content that aligns with how modern AI search engines evaluate expertise, trust, and relevance. As platforms such as Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity increasingly prioritize spoken authority and multimedia signals, Trustpoint Xposure’s Authority Video Division enables brands to communicate expertise in formats that algorithms and audiences trust.

What Is the Trustpoint Xposure Authority Video Division?

The Authority Video Division is a specialized creative unit that produces AI-optimized video content designed to establish expert credibility and expand digital authority across search, media, and AI answer engines.

Unlike traditional video marketing, this division focuses on structured authority signaling, ensuring that every video asset supports discoverability, citation, and long-term trust across AI-powered platforms.

Services offered include:

  • Authority and thought-leadership videos

  • Expert commentary and insight clips

  • Interview and roundtable video series

  • Podcast-style expert conversations

  • AI-optimized scripting aligned with AEO strategies

Each format is engineered to reinforce topical authority, entity recognition, and expert voice signals favored by modern algorithms.

Why Authority Video Matters in AI Search Ecosystems

Video has become one of the strongest trust indicators in AI-ranked search environments. Spoken expertise, consistent messaging, and multimedia validation now influence how AI systems assess authority.

According to Trustpoint Xposure, brands that combine written authority with expert-led video content gain stronger visibility, higher trust signals, and greater likelihood of being cited as answers, not just ranked as links.

"Video is now one of the most powerful authority signals for both algorithmic visibility and human trust," said David Wilder, Founder of Trustpoint Xposure. "This division gives our clients a way to express expertise clearly, confidently, and credibly in the formats AI platforms are actively prioritizing."

Takeaway: Authority video transforms expertise into a format that AI systems can recognize, evaluate, and reference.

How the Authority Video Division Integrates With Trustpoint Xposure’s AEO Framework

The Authority Video Division is fully integrated into Trustpoint Xposure’s broader Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and AI visibility ecosystem.

Clients benefit from coordinated exposure across:

  • AEO-optimized written content

  • Guaranteed media placements

  • Podcast and interview distribution

  • Video-first authority assets

  • Entity-based optimization and schema architecture

This multi-format approach ensures that brands maintain consistent authority signals across every surface AI systems analyze, including text, video, media citations, and expert mentions.

Strengthening Trustpoint Xposure’s Mission of Structured Digital Authority

The launch of the Authority Video Division reinforces Trustpoint Xposure’s mission: to build durable, structured digital authority that performs across evolving search and AI environments.

By aligning video content with written authority, media coverage, and technical optimization, the firm enables brands to move beyond visibility and toward citation, reference, and trust.

About Trustpoint Xposure

The agency helps founders, executives, and professional brands become the most trusted answers across AI-powered platforms, including:

MEMRI TV Clips Now Have Over 1 Billion Views

By Media News

WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESS Newswire / December 17, 2025 / MEMRI TV clips have now been viewed an unprecedented 1 billion times across the globe, since the project’s launch in 2004. This reach reflects how essential this work is – work that no other organization in the world is doing. But views alone will not sustain this project.

Behind every MEMRI TV clip is extensive, hands-on work: constant monitoring, expert translation, careful editing, video production, subtitle creation, posting, and global distribution. This work is carried out every day, without stopping, and it is costly.

MEMRI TV operates 24/7. Extremist broadcasts, sermons, and propaganda do not stop – and neither can we. Stable monthly support allows MEMRI to respond immediately to breaking developments, and to maintain continuous monitoring across languages and regions.

Sustaining this work depends on a relatively small community of committed supporters.

Monthly donations help us meet two vital goals of the project: responding quickly to urgent developments, such as those in recent years, and maintaining our ability to capture and archive content in a way that will best serve media organizations.

MEMRI TV documents extremist imams, Islamist movements, jihadi organizations, and propaganda networks – including figures affiliated with groups such as CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood – speaking openly about the destruction of the U.S., the spread of Islam through jihad, and the long-term goal of dominating the West. We also document the growing alliance between Islamist groups and radical leftist and Marxist movements.

Since you know that you can rely on MEMRI TV’s documentation of what is really happening on the ground, now is the moment to give. Your tax-deductible gift of $100, $250, or $500 – or whatever you can give today or monthly – will guarantee that the flow of this vital information will not be interrupted.

About MEMRI TV

The MEMRI TV Project has passed the major milestone of 1 billion online views of its clips – on MEMRI.org, on social media, and on the MEMRI app, as well as through sharing across social media.

With over 82,600 minutes of translated content since the project’s launch in 2004, and nearing its 15,000th release, the project, which monitors Arab, Iranian, Urdu, Turkish, Russian, and Chinese channels has had a massive impact. Its clips are used by governments, intelligence agencies, law enforcement, legislatures, media, and academia, in every country worldwide. Additionally, Arab and Iranian broadcast media frequently reference, comment on, and respond to MEMRI TV clips about them.

No One Else In The World Is Doing This Vital Work Of Monitoring Arab And Iranian TV

MEMRI TV monitors all these channels around the clock. No other organization in the world is monitoring, recording, translating, subtitling, and publishing clips from Arab, Iranian, Urdu, Turkish, Russian, and Chinese media – let alone doing this 24/7.

From its very first months, MEMRI TV attracted attention in the Arab and Muslim world. In 2004, Dr. Fatima Al-Sayyegh, dean of the history department at United Arab Emirates University, discussed the project, explaining that its aim was to "monitor television programs, mostly talk shows and religious programs, and to analyze them, in order to find out what the Arab man on the street thinks, what is the discourse in the Arab media that is directed at the Arab public."

How MEMRI Maintains The Largest Archive Worldwide Of Translated Video Clips From The Arab And Muslim World

In its nearly three decades, MEMRI TV has amassed the largest archive worldwide of translated video clips from the Arab and Muslim world. But creating these clips is an expensive, time-consuming, and resource-intensive process – from recording the raw programming to translating the content to creating English subtitles to uploading the clip and transcript.

MEMRI TV’s Work Requires Substantial Resources

Producing MEMRI TV clips requires an extensive and advanced monitoring system, and tremendous professional and human resources. Also, maintaining our extensive archives requires costly technological support. This is where your help and support are crucial.

MEMRI TV Clips Are Used By U.S. And Western Militaries, Intelligence Agencies, And Law Enforcement In All 50 U.S. States

Law enforcement agencies in the West need MEMRI TV clips: They are regularly requested and used by all branches of the U.S. military, and other countries’ militaries, as well as by law enforcement in all 50 U.S. states – including fusion centers, counterterrorism divisions, terrorism task forces, and more. They are often requested by NATO and EU government bodies, and by Western governments, militaries, intelligence, and law enforcement agencies – the U.K., Germany, France, Australia, and more.

MEMRI TV’s Impact Fighting Extremism – And Supporting Reformists – In The Arab And Muslim World

The Sermons by Imams in the West Project

MEMRI TV’s mission includes exposing and fighting extremism in the Arab and Muslim world. One aspect of this is our Sermons by Imams in the West project, that monitors and translates extremist sermons across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia. Some of the clips have led to imams’ and mosques’ public apologies, legal action against them, and even deportations. Many extremists in the region and in the West are aware of MEMRI TV’s clips about them, and respond to them.

The Democratization in the Arab and Muslim World Project

Some of the nearly 15,000 clips of which MEMRI TV is most proud are those that amplify and support reformist voices in the region, helping to bring their messages to the world. Many of these activists became become internationally known after we translated and published their statements in the MEMRI TV Democratization in the Arab and Muslim World Project, which focuses on democratization, women’s and minority rights, counter-radicalization, and education in the region.

MEMRI TV Clips Are Used Extensively By Major Media

On a daily basis, MEMRI TV clips are quoted, screened, cited, and linked to by major U.S. media – from CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, and Fox News to The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and just about every major newspaper and news outlet in the U.S. They are also used regularly by media in the U.K., France, and the rest of Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

ABOUT MEMRI

Exploring the Middle East and South Asia through their media, MEMRI bridges the language gap between the West and the Middle East and South Asia, providing timely translations of Arabic, Farsi, Urdu-Pashtu, Dari, Turkish, Russian, and Chinese media, as well as original analysis of political, ideological, intellectual, social, cultural, and religious trends.

Founded in February 1998 to inform the debate over U.S. policy in the Middle East, MEMRI is an independent, nonpartisan, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. MEMRI’s main office is in Washington, DC, with branch offices in various world capitals. MEMRI research is translated into English, French, Polish, Japanese, Spanish, and Hebrew.
