CBC Lockout
In the Halifax Daily News this morning, I read about another CMG-campus/community radio collaboration. CBC Lockout says:
Find out which songs Don Connolly, Costas Halavrezos and Carmen Klassen hum on the picket line. Radio reporter Laura Graham hosts the Soundtrack of Our (Locked-out) Lives every Tuesday from 2:30-3:30 on CKDU, 97.5 FM.
Should make for some good […]
Back home
I arrived safely in Halifax just after midnight. Will be on the picket line tomorrow.
More from The Coast
Here’s another excellent report from Stephanie Domet about the lockout.
I’ll soon join Stephanie and my other Haligonian collagues on the line. That’s right, I’m headed to Halifax this Monday, and will stay for about a week.

From Peter:
[T]his lockout is going to result in a sort of “dark ages” in terms of the digital fossil record. Our ancestors (our even ourselves, in a year) will go the CBC website to search for stories about things that are happening now and will find nothing. Worse, when our friends at the CBC […]

More on “alternative programming”
Via my friend Hilary, from Antonia Zerbisias’s excellent blog:
And, for those Toronto area listeners who are missing their Andy Barrie, Metro Morning is doing a dry run on Monday on CIUT 89.5 FM, and is set to go live Monday to Friday 6:30-8 starting Labour Day.
It’s great that these dedicated CBCers want to continue practising […]
CBC On the Line now online
Here it is, folks: the official CMG online news magazine. It’s called CBC On the Line, and it’s looking for submissions. Sadly, no RSS (yet).
And, earlier today outside the broadcast centre in Toronto, there was talk of getting a morning show podcast off the ground from the University of Toronto’s CIUT studios. As far as […]
I Love Radio.org
From Tod’s site yesterday:
Today, 6,253 “unique visitors” visited the blog — about a third were returning visitors. I have never seen traffic like this. I will certainly keep it up as long as I’m able to (the bandwidth costs are going to hurt).
I Love Radio.org has been a consistently wonderful resource for me and many […]
