Tonight I will again be a co-host of Biased Transmission, a progressive talk radio show which airs on 89.1FM KEOS every Wednesday from 6:00pm – 7:00pm. The guest on tonight’s show will be Professor Nandini Bhattacharya, an English professor and  professor at the Women’s Studies Department at Texas A&M University. This discussion will center on women’s issues and feminism; Professor Bhattacharya will share her insight on feminism both on campus and off.

 

Tonight Ann Preston will be hosting the show, and there will also be other guest host in the booth tonight, Shelly and Vandy, who will soon be hosting their own show about women’s issues and feminism. Tonight’s discussion should be very engaging, and hopefully you will be able to listen and join us at Revolution Café and Bar after the show for debrief and drinks. If you cannot tune into the show tonight the show will be posted online at the Biased Transmission archive, and it will also be posted here at Left of College Station on Sunday.

Tonight I will be a co-host on Biased Transmission, a progressive talk radio show which airs on 89.1FM KEOS every Wednesday from 6:00pm – 7:00pm. Kenneth Michael Absher, a fellow at the Texas A&M University Bush School of Government and Public Service, was scheduled to be a guest on tonight’s show and participate in a discussion about the Bush Administration’s “enhanced interrogation” policies. Absher, who served for over 30 years in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), informed the show that he is “committed to activities that will prevent [him] from being available for an interview on [the] radio show for the foreseeable future”

The discussion will center on the current debate about “enhanced interrogation,” otherwise known as torture. Topics will range from the release of the “torture memos” to the non-release of the torture photographs, the political debate surrounding Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the C.I.A. Also, we will be discussing what constitutes torture, and if it is ever justified. The co-hosts that will be participating in the discussion are Michael Alvard, Ann Preston, and Srikanth Sastry. If you cannot tune into the show tonight the show will be posted online at the Biased Transmission archive, and it will also be posted here at Left of College Station on Sunday.
