We’ve had great coverage of the BP oil disaster at DTE, thanks to the hard work of Paul Haeder and Marc Gauthier. Not only are they continuing to file dispatches on this site but you should also listen to Haeder's coverage at Tipping Points on KYRS. Ah, the power of community radio. It’s always fascinating to witness a similar approach in a different city. One of our favorite authors, Derrick Jensen, discussed the spill and the systemic problem with industrialization on WMNF (which stands for Member-sponsored Non-commercial FM), 88.5 FM community radio in Tampa, Florida. Their news and public affairs programming emphasize controversial, neglected, and non-mainstream points of view on important local as well as national or world issues, illuminating our values particularly regarding peace, human rights, and environmentalism. It’s stations like WMNF and Spokane’s very own KYRS where the news matters baby.













Tune in.
