This week we have a great conversation with author , about his reissued (and ongoing) Book of Cross series, especially the first one, since that’s the one I read hahaha. Tune in! And also read on… Even if you’ve never actually listened to 93.3 FM or cfmu.ca the importance of local and independent media continues to expand.

Even if you’ve never actually listened to 93.3 FM or cfmu.ca the importance of local and independent media continues to expand. Here in Hamilton, local media has been hit so badly that, technically, CFMU/The Silhouette is the largest newsroom in Hamilton. I’m being serious. In a better world we’d have trained journalists and do more hard news (look for more of that, though, come September). In the meantime, we do the best we can with our amazing student staff and community/campus volunteers.
We are NOT owned by a hedge fund company that’ll cut us for lack of profit. We are NOT a talented, well-meaning blogger who simply can’t keep up the pace or afford to quit the day job. We have resources. We can do more. BUT NOT WITHOUT YOUR HELP.
PLEASE consider donating to 93.3 CFMU. We’re not doing as well as we usually do because a few major donors had to scale back. We need the community to step up more than we ever have. $5. $10. $20. $30 gets you a Friends of CFMU card. Every bit helps.
Thanks friends
