Anyway, the music is better on RHC

I find that for great Cuban music, R. Rebelde is about tops...but RHC
is fine too.

Propaganda RHC may be, but many other stations I've been listening to
are as guilty of stretching the limits of my credulity. Some of these
stations are on distant WM and local television too, so draw your own
conclusions.

Every country has it's own propaganda machine. The U.S. is no
different, nor should we expect it to be. The content is often
different depending on the audience (i.e., global or domestic.) Even
the VOA has (had?) a mandate to broadcast official American propaganda
around the world. It's dangerous to listen to anything on RHC _or_ VOA
without a critical ear.

Anyway, the music is better on RHC.

Heck, even the BBC is propaganda. If you listen to their "interviews"
you can hear their bias in the questions. Bias is also exhibited by the
choice of interview subjects. Last night (actually this morning world
day) on The World Today they reported on the "showdown" meeting between
Bush and Putin by interviewing a Russian dissident, who of course ranted
against Putin and expressed his wish for a strong Western condemnation
of Putin's authoritarian tendencies, which of course won't happen. All
"news" is propaganda to a certain extent. Did you hear RHC's rant
against National Intelligence Director nominee John Negroponte on
Saturday night? Apparently Negroponte was the US ambassador to Honduras
in the early 80s when a right wing junta was terrorizing the populace,
and RHC wasted no time blaming Negroponte for not doing something about
it. In fact, HALF of the 10 minute newscast was taken up with this
anti-Negroponte ranting. On Monday night they took up half the newscast
with Hugo Chavez's assertion that the US was getting ready to
assassinate him, something RHC asserted would cause a "continentwide
revolt". But every so often RHC comes up with something that's actually
credible sounding, like Tuesday night's assertions that the US is
planning a Fallujah style assault on Ramadi (sp?) in Iraq, and that Iran
is planning a guerrilla war against US troops if they invade (a simple
strategy: let US troops conquer Iran unopposed, and then make the
occupation hell through guerrilla fighting).

Whether it is news or propoganda depends on the side you belong to.
George W. and his machine does a fine job of cranking out half truths
and innuendo as well. The nonsense about social security being in
"immediate crisis" and that individual investment accounts will fix the
problem is but one example.

IRELAND?,,,,, brits OUT!!!!!!

Gee, just a few years ago the Democrats were saying that Social Security was in
'immediate crisis', or something quite similar.

What changed, other than President Bush deciding on taking a look at the
problem?

Go back and check.

Remember, RHC is the voice of libertion in North America.
I was really sad when the USSR called it quits.
I loved Radio Moscow, it was even funnier then VOA.

This situation is similar to the Democrats/Liberals calling for regime change in
Iraq, and when a Republican President comes along and actually does something they
start screaming.

It's absolutely boggling!
