Twenty-five years of the Third World News Review

In an age of disinformation, where media power is not only concentrated in fewer and fewer hands, but is exercised with increasing disregard for truth, the role of small, community-based alternative broadcasters becomes ever more crucial. This article examines the experience, over twenty-five years, of running a regular programme on the Third World. Initially set up by Cedric Robinson and Corey Dubin, using volunteer journalists and information gatherers, the Third World News Review is not only a significant source of real information for a wider community but an example that could be followed elsewhere.
