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. China,
Netherlands, Cuba, and Russia.
Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (March 30) 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) (28:59)
This week's show features stories from China Radio International,
Radio Netherlands, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From CHINA- S Korea has begun shipping aid in the form of fertilizer to
N Korea, a step toward reunification. A number of Taiwan separatists
have drafted a new constitution claiming independence from mainland
China. China continues to push for the non-militarization of outer space
at the UN. US military denied reports that Iran had fired a missile at a
US ship in the Persian Gulf, where the build up of ships and war games
is at the highest level since the invasion of Iraq.
>From NETHERLANDS- The liberal Dutch drug policy is under fire
following the death of a 17 year old French girl who had taken magic
mushrooms, a product legally sold to adults in the Netherlands. Plan
Colombia, a US financed war on drugs, is being criticized for links
between the army and paramilitary groups, and for trying to stop
cocaine production when the importers and users are far away in the
US and Europe.
>From CUBA- A Viewpoint on the level of violence in Guatemala and
neighboring countries, a leftover from the paramilitary wars of the
1980's and 1990's. A US court has dismissed a lawsuit against Donald
Rumsfeld over claims that prisoners were tortured in Iraq and
Afghanistan- many of those tortured were released with no charges
ever filed against them. The Pentagon is planning to sell more weapons
to Sunni countries in the Middle East hoping to contain Iranian
influence. When the British medical journal The Lancet published a
statistic saying that over 600,000 Iraqis had died since the invasion by
US and British forces the governments claimed it was an exaggeration-
now advisors at the British Ministry of Defense say that the study was
accurate.
>From RUSSIA- The Russian Foreign Minister says the US plans for
anti-missile defense system in Europe pose a threat to collective
security and international stability. Then a commentary on the US
military's biggest naval exercise in the Persian Gulf- is it a threat or
preparation for an imminent attack upon Iran?
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)
