Information zur Sendereihe

Democracy Now!

Nachrichtenmagazin

Democracy Now! is a national, daily, independent, award-winning news program hosted by the journalists Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez.

A disclaimer on Democracy Now! from the Radio Helsinki program council,
adopted by the program council on June, 20th, 2024:

In our view, Democracy Now!'s coverage of the war in Gaza sometimes crosses the line between legitimate criticism of Israeli government action and demonization of the Israeli state. At the same time, the danger posed by islamist actors in the region remains underexposed.

However, we consider the international debate on the Gaza war, including in Democracy Now!, to be important and necessary. We have therefore decided to continue broadcasting Democracy Now! on Radio Helsinki.

We would like to ask you, the listeners, to listen to the program critically. Feel free to send us feedback on the program to programmrat@helsinki.at.
