On this edition we broadcast an interview conducted by Free Radio Santa Cruz's V-Man, who interviews a volunteer from a free radio station operating in Algiers, New Orleans, that was recently visited by the FCC. Paul also catches up with critical news about our media environment.
An unlicensed community radio station has been serving the devastated Algiers neighborhood of New Orleans since just a few days after hurricane Katrina. The station has been providing much needed information to residents who stayed or are returning to an area that still has few services. Recently, the FCC visited the station, causing volunteers to shut it down.
In this interview Free Radio Santa Cruz’s V-Man talks to one of the volunteer who sheds light on the real situation in New Orleans.
