Sources of Unbiased News on Shortwave?

At the time it was showing flaws in the economic recovery plan. They even have a web site, which had advertised a hand crank SW radio among other things. I have since lost the frequency and the web site. Even with this little information, does anybody know the station or the web site? Thanks. Maybe it's just me, but I like shortwave for the incredibly biased "news" broadcast by all sorts of kooks and cranks. As others have suggested, the most likely guess is Alex Jones, just on the basis of sheer volume of airtime. Could you describe the show's format a little more? More than one host? Guests? Were they selling anything (gold)? I can throw out some more names if you have some more details. You need to tune into Alex---why? well if half the stuff he says is true-then dang we are in deep crap. Anarchy could be on the horizon. Martial Law, One world order, yeah all of that. Let's pray that it doesn't come true. In Telamondeese (don't take offense now Telamon) Alec Jones could be a Kookabura (maybe not correct spelling) -------------------maybe just plain "KooK". But you know he's got his whole life wrapped up in that stuff. Man I hope it is not true. I must confess I listen to him a lot on my Sangean wfr 20 Internet stream. 24 hr a day -streaming. We need him on the air. He is the watchdog. With all the crooks in Washington--yeah we need the Watchdog. Ron Paul he's good to---makes good sense to me. Wish I had voted for him. Alex Jones ?? I'd like to meet him. I believe he respects God. He's got great radio. It's kookaburra. A bird (kingfisher) native to Austrailia. From Wikipedia "Kookaburras are best known for their unmistakable call, which is uncannily like loud, echoing human laughter ‹ good-natured, if rather hysterical, merriment in the case of the well-known Laughing Kookaburra" You know the stupid "BWAHAHAHAHA" a certain retard likes to post to the news group all the time with an emphasis on the hysterical. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kookaburra If you look down the page at "External links" there is an MP3 recording of its call. This recording is what I think about when reading a certain individuals posts to put them into perspective. Apparently the laughing Kookaburra doesn't like classic tube radios. This dislike most likely extends to any radio. The Kookaburra probably finds them to confusing to operate or maybe it just doesn't like the aural competition. He probably thinks we are all radio nerds. -- Telamon Ventura, California |
