New World Notes - Obamacare to Ecocide
Start: 12/10/2013 12:00 pm
End: 12/11/2013 9:00 pm
This week on New World Notes: radio program #301, Tuesday, December 10, 2013, from 12:00 to 12:30 p.m. (and again on Wednesday from 8:30 to 9:00 p.m.), host Kenneth Dowst manages to find some amusement in the horrors that currently afflict us.
This time we start with comic absurdity--a funny satire on the Obamacare rollout. Then we move to scary absurdity--the NYPD shoots some more innocent bystanders, then blames the unarmed man they were shooting at for the bystanders' bullet wounds. We end with global calamity, with a fine talk by radical ecology activist Derrick Jensen. Something for everybody!
