Hours:
Seven days a week: 12:00 am-5:00 am


Updates are occasionally provided outside of these hours. However, the regular hours are the only time that I am for sure monitoring my equipment.

Note: Hours are subject to change should a new media contracts arise or current media contract be expanded.


History:
Believe it or not, Operation 100 News is the work of only one person. It all started with one 100 channel analog scanner back in 1996. At that time I only monitored Law Enforcement in Johnson County, along with Fire Departments and Med-Act of Johnson County. Today, Operation 100 News has six scanners, four of which are capable of monitoring Digital P25 Radio Systems, an outdoor, roof mounted antenna, and two dedicated computers. I have been tracking Johnson County since 1996 and Douglas County since 2002.



Operation 100 News has been around since 2003 as a dream of immediate public notification of unfolding emergency situations in your neighborhood, letting you know what is happening nearby to keep you and your family aware and safe. 


I currently monitor Police, Sheriff, Fire and Medical county-wide for Douglas and Johnson County.

Operation 100 News is a 100% free service to the General Public, with more than 50 hours dedicated to its operation each week by one person and funding is extremely tight. Currently funded by personal funds, occasional public donations and 
news media contracts. 


At first Operation 100 News called and notified other news media's news desks to unfolding situations and responded to incident scenes. After several failed attempts at cooperation with KC area media, this changed to a by contract only service for local media. Previous efforts were mainly one-sided with KC media outlets taking whatever information I could offer them, very few realizing the potential of what Operation 100 News could provide. Several news outlets within my coverage area have since contracted with me. Those outlets receive a phone call to their contact person when news breaks that they have contracted me to notify them of.



Donations:
Operation 100 News never has and will never solicit anyone for any donations.

News Notification Available

General Public Follow Request information LINK
Mike Frizzell - Muck Rack profile with links to examples of my work.

Operation 100 News is provided as a free service to the general public. Information is not to be shared with any commercial news media unless they are under contract with Operation 100 News 

Operation 100 News reserves the right to block anyone in violation of this policy without explanation or warning

Rates are affordable, flexible and vary depending on your needs. Rates begin as low as $5 per hour with stringer rates also available. Contact Mike at Operation100news@gmail.com with any questions, comments, or rate inquiries.

Operation 100 News is available to be contracted by News Media Outlets and businesses. I can notify your news desk or on-call contact person when there is news breaking that you want to know about. Notifications can be made by telephone, text message, or email. Please contact Mike at the email address provided on this page and be sure to include specifics as to what you are looking for from my service.

I specialize in covering Douglas and Johnson counties. Time after time, I have covered and broke the breaking news stories that the rest of the local media has missed out on for hours. Covering only two counties allows me to pay more attention to the activity that may start small but then quickly and quietly escalate to something much more severe. I have reported Police Department confirmed "suspicious death investigations" hours before anyone else, along with deadly accidents, shootings, house fires, and many more examples listed below on this page.

While most are listening to the same crime night after night in Kansas City, Missouri, and Kansas City, Kansas, I am covering the areas that are within the Kansas City news market which has repeatedly been neglected from receiving real-time breaking news coverage.

The others will tell you they are the place to turn to when news breaks in Douglas or Johnson County. Operation 100 News is the only place that consistently proves we are the only ones on top of breaking news in this area.


History of Operation 100 News:


I have lived in Johnson County since 1985, monitored Police Departments, Sheriff's Office, Fire Departments, and Med-Act activity countywide since 1996. I have monitored countywide events in Douglas County since 2002.

I personally used to call various KC television news outlets' news desks and provide them with details from my sources or from my being on the scene. This was almost always a one-sided arrangement. Very few realized the potential assistance that Operation 100 News could provide. These arrangements ceased in May 2010 but, are still available by contract only.

Don't get left behind again. Contact Mike at Operation100news@gmail.com for more details or with any questions.


Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
