It’s that time of year again!

As with public television, your weekly visit to a precious radio experience is interrupted by appeals for financial support.

Now the Global Research News Hour’s conversation with our loyal listeners is plagued by a simple request that can be summed up in a single word…

HELP!

The Global Research News Hour is a show which is not only indebted to the Centre for Research on Globalization, but also to radio station CKUW in Winnipeg, Manitoba – the small broadcasting centre out of which the show is produced week after week.

The station, located on campus gets most of its funding from university students via the University of Winnipeg Student Association. But it must also appeal to listeners for support. Fundrive is the annual event by which we pitch for funding during the week.

This week’s show is dedicated to raising funds for the station. It is a bit of a drag in a way to have to focus efforts in this direction. On the other hand, it gives the host a chance to have more of a connection with listeners in the local community … and beyond!

So this week, alongside the pitching for donations, we have a set of clips from some of the better shows over the last couple of years. It is hoped that catching excerpts will remind listeners what keeps bringing them back!

But in addition, it will also remind them of the importance of what we do! In the war for the mind, our weapon of choice, as independent media – is the TRUTH! When Big Tech giants and algorithms are successfully reducing our audiences and pushing to the side all alternatives to the master-media narratives behind the Ukraine War, the Israeli Genocide of Gaza, the Global War on Terrorism, the bombing of Syria, Libya and Yemen, “Russiagate”, and other debacles, Global Research and Global Research News Hour need all the help they can get from the bedrock of solidarity that is out there.

We encourage listeners to make a donation to CKUW at Donate – CKUW 95.9 FM. Many interesting incentives are available to Canadian listeners.

Additionally, or alternatively, you can donate to the show through the Global Research portal below.

Please Identify your Donation to the GRNH: Donation to CKUW-GRNH.

Thanks to all listeners for their generosity! If you want to do more, tell your local broadcaster about the show, and send copies and links to friends and family. It is our high hope that, while the task is daunting and the future seems to be grim, through correcting state and corporate narratives, we will eventually PULVERIZE war propaganda and bring about genuine peace and social justice in our world!
