[Swprograms] CBC repeating Spin Cycles this summer in The Sunday Edition

2007-08-01 Thread Richard Cuff
The second hour of CBC Sunday Edition -- the long-running Sunday
morning news magazine -- features a re-airing of the six-part
documentary series on the ...creepy concatenations of politics, big
business, advertising, and public relations that pervades today's
news gathering and reporting industries.

I highly recommend this series if you want to better understand why
news- and current affairs-oriented programming has changed over the
past 30 years (give or take); the series has implications for both
domestic news coverage as well as international broadcasting.

If you don't want to wait for Sunday mornings, the series audio is
available for on-demand listening.

The website set up for this special series:

[Swprograms] OT Looking for tape of rebels taking over a shortwave station

2007-08-01 Thread David Goren
I'm looking for recordings where the station has been taken over by  
rebels, either during the takeover or after. Thanks for any leads. I  
have a vague memory of hearing sound somewhere on the internet from  
an African station in this kind of situation.

Not exactly SW but the FIBS in Port Stanley was taken over by the
Argentinians; the BBC Archive Hour (on Radio 4) did a well-produced
documentary on this earlier this year.  Tons of audio from the event
itself.

FIBS was using shortwave 2370 at the time. There's 106
minutes of tapes of the station at the link below,
invasion 1 is the station during the invasion,
invasion 2 is where the Argentines take the station
over.
