The great Peter B. Collins progressive talk radio show has only been able to get on about 9 stations via self syndication. Unprofitable, the show is going off the air on Friday unless, according to today's show, there is by 9am Tuesday a significant response to peter@peterbcollins.com pledging a voluntary monthly subscription fee (suggested $10, anything gratefully accepted), or of course some major donors or advertisers emerging.

Peter's reporting, coverage and exploration are unmatched on topics such as election integrity, 9/11 truth, depleted uranium, grassroots activism (more properly called public service), and others distorted or blacked out by the corporate/military/government/media juggernaut. Of all the talk show hosts I've heard, PBC is the most respectful of listeners, guests and callers, who are rarely interrupted and never shouted down, always allowed to make their point even when in disagreement with "the humble host." This show smartens us up rather than dumbing us down.
Of all the debate I see about why liberal or progressive talk isn't more successful, I think right here is the missing ingredient...
Imagine the PBC show as our after school club where we get together to stay informed and involved, a rare progressive media forum that supports real world work for change. If you can, pay some monetary dues. For the rest, dues means participating and using the program (being the media) to actually accomplish things and advance solutions for a progressive agenda.
Listen live all this week (and hopefully beyond) from 3-6pm PT via www.PeterBCollins.com.
