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

 

     This week's show features stories from Radio Deutsche-Welle, Spanish National Radio, Sputnik Radio, and Radio Havana Cuba.

     From GERMANY- Edward Snowden has praised the European Court of Justice for invalidating a 15 year old pact allowing US access to Europeans computer data. In some parts of Germany refugees are being attacked and dozens of shelters have been burned. German Chancellor Merkel has ruled out limitations on the number of refugees entering Germany. Last Sunday Syrian President Assad gave his backing for Russian airstrikes on militant groups, and accused Western nations of fueling terrorism by backing rebel groups. By Wednesday Syrian ground troops had launched a major offensive against the rebels.

     From SPAIN- An in-depth report on the war in Syria, questioning what is at stake, why did the so-called Islamic State grow while the US was bombing their strongholds, what is Russia hoping to accomplish, and why is the American and European media perpetuating misinformation. Then, why are Doctors Without Borders calling the US attack on their hospital a war crime?

     From RUSSIA- Afshin Rattansi interviews Paul Craig-Roberts on why every US and NATO backed attack in the Middle East has ended in failure and chaos, creating the current refugee crisis. Roberts asserts that the Russian intervention in Syria is the beginning of the end of US military hegemony, and that European nations will soon cease to be vassals of the US empire.

      From CUBA- A Viewpoint on the media response to the Leap Manifesto in Canada. The manifesto is a declaration by prominent citizens calling for rapid reduction in the use of fossil fuels, respect for indigenous rights, debating a guaranteed annual income, and taking back public control of energy systems.

 

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)
