We've added a new guestbook to our website with hopes that you'll drop us a note to say hi, where you're from, and let us know your how we're doing. As we begin streaming to a global audience we'd especially like to hear from those outside our terrestrial broadcast footprint. You do need to be registered to leave a message. So don't be shy - please say "Hi".
If you really have a lot to say we'd encourage you to mail our general emailbox mailbox at wcuw dot org (you know the symbols for "at" and "dot"). Just CLICK HERE for the guestbook.

WCUW now features three award winning national alternative news programs to keep you informed of the issues - and whats not being reported.

Pioneering the largest public media collaboration in the U.S., Democracy Now! is broadcast on Pacifica, NPR, community, and college radio stations; on public access, PBS, satellite television and now WCUW, Mon - Fri from 4pm-5pm

CounterSpin is FAIR's weekly radio show, hosted by Janine Jackson, Steve Rendall and Peter Hart. It's heard on more than 125 noncommercial stations across the United States and Canada.

CounterSpin provides a critical examination of the major stories every week, and exposes what the mainstream media might have missed in their own coverage. Counterspin airs on Fridays from noon-12:30pm

Making Contact, produced by National Radio Project, is an award-winning, 29-minute weekly magazine/documentary-style public affairs program heard on over 200 radio stations in the USA, Canada, South Africa and Ireland.

WCUW has joined the digital age and is now streaming its broadcast on the net to listeners around the corner or around the world. You are now able to listen to all your favorite shows on your computer while at home or at work over your cable or DSL connection. We've never sounded so good.

Corporate media giants are silencing diverse voices, abandoning quality journalism and eliminating local content (we've got evidence). Our democracy needs better media — but the FCC wants to expand the power of America's largest media companies. Only you can stop them.
