A weekly 30 minute review of news and opinion, recorded from a
shortwave radio. With times and freqs for listening at home. 2 files-
broadcast and slow-modem streaming. Free to rebroadcast.
Netherlands, China, Cuba, and Russia
Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (December 15) is up at the website
http://www.outfarpress.com/outfarpress/shortwave.shtml in both
broadcast quality (13.3MB) and quickdownload or streaming form
(3.3MB) (29:00)
This week's show features stories from Radio Netherlands, China
Radio International, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From NETHERLANDS- UN Secretary General Kofi Annan gave a
farewell speech to criticize the US for its unilateral foreign policy. A
press review on the latest research into the melting of the polar caps
and subsequent flooding, and the pleas of corporate executives that the
government pay more attention to the environment. Augusto Pinochet
died this week and RN gave a concise biography of his political life.
>From CHINA- A report on the riots following Pinochet's funeral in Chile.
A new round of 6-party talks about the N Korean nuclear dilemma are
scheduled to begin next Monday, the first talks since N Korea
apparently tested a nuclear device. Pakistan reaffirmed its stand that it
does not claim the Kashmir region as an integral part of its territory.
>From CUBA- While many think that the US detention center at
Guantanamo is being scaled down, rapid development and expansion
of facilities are underway. In a promotional video for a Christian
Evangelical organization called "Christian Embassy," 7 uniformed
generals and colonels praised the work of the organization- the video
may be viewed or downloaded at http://www.crooksandliars.com. The
Israeli Prime Minister accidentally mentioned Israel's nuclear weapons
during an interview in Germany, sparking a great deal of controversy.
>From RUSSIA- A brief update on Chernobyl, where 95% of the nuclear
materials are still encased at the site of the failed power plant some 20
years after the disaster. In Lebanon the current political and religious
conflicts have deep roots- an analysis of what is needed to avoid a
further devastating civil war there.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on
line at- http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-
shortwaves
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.
This program will be aired on Friday afternoon at 4:30pm (PST) on
KZYX/Z Philo CA, you might be able to stream via <http://www.kzyx.org
>
There are several other streams that work better- <
http://www.freakradio.org >Freak Radio Santa Cruz now streams this
program on Friday at 9:00am and Saturday at 11am(PST)
The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from <
http://www.radio4all.net > or iTunes (search for "shortwave" in
podcasts)
Check out the amazing streams at < http://www.radicalradio.org >
And the Partytown streams are great and informative-
<http://www.partytown.com/radio >
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)
