Say NO to ads on CBC Radio

Say NO to ads on CBC Radio

Faced with deep budget cuts, our national public broadcaster plans to become more commercial, including placing unlimited ads on some of its radio networks. Canadian media is already saturated with commercial advertising messages. That’s why CBC Radio stands out as such a welcome contrast, a commercial-free oasis. If CBC is allowed to place ads on its radio network we will lose the last remaining commercial-free public space in our media. Please do not allow ads on CBC Radio.

About Podcasting

So it look like mevio.com is no longer hosting “non profit” podcast, I don’t know if it’s just a bug or it’s a decision they have taken recently, but the thing is, is that they haven’t publicized it yet and as far as I know a lot of producer got theirs account suspended without notice or explanations. I know some of us wrote for an explanation and have yet to get an answer. The files are still up from what I see but the rss feed and webpage have been removed. I have only posted public domain material on this podcast I was having, so i don’t think it was brought down for copyright issues.

It is just bad timing because I was going to produce new episodes and try to bring it back alive, I was neglecting it since a few years.

Anyway, for the moment I have relocated it. So if you are intrigued about Old Time Radio Show just try it:

The CBC’s top official in the North says the Yukon government’s move to extend the CBC’s lease for its AM transmitter in Whitehorse does not necessarily mean the broadcaster will scrap plans to switch from AM to FM.
