News you're not supposed to know

Tune in at 9AM Thursdays for an anarcho-socialist viewpoint on everything from climate to imperialism and the new Jim Crow. Press**Watch is now approaching its 30th year broadcasting on KBOO!

--By the way! If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, ripping off the title "PressWatch" and the byline "News You're Not Supposed To Know" must be like a big sloppy and totally unwelcome kiss. Get your own titles and bylines, folks, so that no one confuses your sloppy conformist crap with my sloppy anarcho-socialist crap. Keep crap separated, I say.

Topic tags:

Global Affairs, Government/Politics, Media, Activism, Civil Liberties, Civil Rights/Human Rights, Class, LGBTQ, War/Peace

This show was intended to be about climate change, but it only gets a mention toward the end. That's because, as I researched it last night and this morning, I found increasing evidence that the Second Korean War is being planned. I can deduce this not only from the recog... Read more
