AUDIO INFORMATION:

"Between The Lines" is a half-hour syndicated radio news magazine that each
week features a summary of under-reported news stories and interviews with
activists and journalists who offer progressive perspectives on
international, national and regional political, economic and social issues.
Because "Between The Lines" is independent of all publications, media
networks or political parties, we are able to bring a diversity of voices to
the airwaves generally ignored or marginalized by the major media. For more
