WILD-AM is the “urban” station in Boston, owned by Radio One – the country’s largest racially segregated station owner.<\/p>\n
The news hit last week that WILD-AM was changing to a news\/talk format, but the accounts that I read left out an important detail.\u00a0\u00a0 For a long time, WILD has not had a functioning web site and doesn’t stream.\u00a0\u00a0 The logical inference would have been that WILD was picking up Radio One’s lineup – Al Sharpton, Warren Bellentine, Bev Smith, etc….<\/p>\n
The detail is that the “News\/Talk” coming to WILD is China Radio International, the official government propaganda\u00a0service of the Chinese Communist People’s Revolutionary Army.\u00a0 It’s an Engrish language service with American music mingled in to soften the propaganda – it’s not a Chinese service for Chinese Americans.\u00a0 It’s roughly the same as Voice of America or Radio Free Europe.<\/p>\n
