Podcasting since 2004; Conversations, conflicts, adventures and monologues from around the world.
Bianet is an alternative media network in Turkey. The network’s goal is to cover the topics which the mainstream will not or does not, with a special emphasis on human rights, labor, women’s rights, the environment, and much more. How are they funded? Is their structure alternative? What does it mean to be alternative in Turkey’s media landscape? My guest, an editor at Bianet, sat down with me at their office in Istanbul to explain.
Turkey content coming up. 4 podcasts relating to alternative radio, a radical magazine, an alternative media network, an LGBT magazine.. and perhaps more.? It’s all processing and today is my last full day in this lovely city. So for now.. I leave you with the fishermen.
Greetings from Istanbul.? I’m enjoying myself so much, no post tonight. However look forward to podcasts an various topics relating to Turkey as well as other musings on this very special place.
Until then.. check out Chris on Radio Open source, talking with Jonah Lehrer.. some interesting discussions that I enjoyed on the plane from Amsterdam to Istanbul, admittedly a little jittery after the day before’s accident.
