FRO Back on the air at 98.5fm in Olympia

Thanks Olympia for getting FRO on the air.

 

Tune in to 98.5fm in the Olympia area

Hey Folks!! Free Radio Olympia Needs A New Home

As our beloved community members and listeners may be aware, Free Radio Olympia 98.5 FM (FRO) was recently served a warning by the Federal Communications Committee (FCC) to cease broadcasting without license. According to the federal government, it is illegal to broadcast over the radio waves without their permission. When they permit a station to broadcast, that permission comes with restrictions. One must hold one's tongue and keep one's words within an acceptable, passive bubble of mediocrity. Only certain music is acceptable. Only certain things can be said. Information and opinions are altered, dulled down, rendering them hollow and half-alive.

June Indymedia Newsreal

Indymedia presents the June 2009 Indymedia NewsReal. The NewsReal is a joint effort of Indymedia and Free Speech TV. The idea is that independent videographers send in their short news videos, which are edited into a monthly show. We carry the resulting show on Indymedia Presents each month.
