NEW ARTICLE about the Shortwave Report in the Boulder Weekly by Gavin Dahl-

 

     This week's show features stories from NHK Japan, Radio Havana Cuba, Sputnik Radio, and Spanish National Radio.

     From JAPAN- There was a reportedly small protest outside the Sendai nuclear power plant that has begun commercial generation. Ground water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant will be discharged into the Pacific Ocean. The joint military operation between Japanese defense forces and the US military continue along the California coast. Chinese patrol ships entered into waters claimed by the Japanese in the South China Sea. The UN reports that nearly 8000 people have been killed in eastern Ukraine. Following the killing of Turkish soldiers, the Turkish government conducted bombing raids and ground attacks on Kurdish rebels in Iraq.

     From CUBA- A human rights group released a final report on the disappearance of 43 Mexican students last September. Venezuelan President Maduro announced his country will accept 20,000 Syrian refugees. Some Palestinians detained in Israel prisons are continuing hunger strikes, while there was a huge funeral procession in the West Bank. The UK Defense Secretary said that London would not hesitate to carry out more secret targeted assassinations on British militants in Syria. Saudi airstrikes in Yemen destroyed an orphanage and a university.

     From RUSSIA- Afshin Rattansi spoke with Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, discussing his new book "The Wikileaks Files." Topics included why academia has censored the book, the publishing of the military's Unconventional Warfare manual, and whether he thinks charges against him, Chelsea Manning, and Edward Snowden will ever be dropped.

      From SPAIN- It begins with Spanish news coverage of the European reception of refugees. Some media suggests that a conclusive war in Syria is the only solution, Spain suggests negotiating with Assad while France and the UK join in the warfare. Arguments continue over quotas for accepting refugees, and journalist Rafael Poch suggests that the German generosity is not what it appears to be.

 

There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -

I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at http://radio.mediageek.net 

 

  All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3 player application (RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer. 

TIME SLOT on KZYX! This program will be aired on Sunday afternoon at 4pm (PST) on KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org > 

 

I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that have donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)
