From what I see on http://www.rcinet.ca/rci/PDF/B04_SW_24h.pdf, AIH runs four
times a day.

AIH also airs on NPR radio stations in the U.S.

No, I don't listen to it. but it invalidates the statement that it
isn't available on U.S. radio.

I would never tell you to watch anything on TV. TV News is all crap.
To say that this one is good and that one is bad is like sorting cow
patties.

Yes, he is a nuisance, and I think that even though I agree with some of
the stuff he posts. But it's still off topic. I don't think I've EVER
seen David post something SW related. He says that his views are more
important than SW, which is fine for him to think that, but then he
should go to talk.politics.misc and leave us alone.


David wouldnt know a radio if you bounced one off his empty skull. He's
drunk the kool-aid, he's hopeless.

So not to worry, David, America is free to watch what we want, and free
to give poor viewer ratings to any news outlet which we distrust. Which
will cause their advertisers to start sponsoring other media channels
whose excellent ratings indicate the people are well pleased with their
content quality.

So really, David, thanks to capitalism and individual freedom, as
opposed to Government ownership and control, the problem you report is
(at least in America) automatically self correcting.

God bless America!.

Those people may as well be sitting on their couches shooting heroin.
There is virtually no real news on TV.

We all know you get all of your "news" via buzzflash editorials. Simpleton.

Dan BLATHERMOUTH rather LIE all the time Rather opened up his yap too
much to some news reporters in Ireland (or was it in England?) and that
fried his potatos right then and there!
