Bob Linden will discuss the progress of veganism as he has

experienced it hosting Go Vegan Radio in the Los Angeles area on KTYM

AM 1460 from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. every Sunday for six years and in the

San Francisco Bay Area on " The Quake " AM 960 from 9:00 to 10:00 p.m.

every Sunday for one year (online anytime, archived and podcasting at

www.GoVeganRadio.com where he gets 11,000 hits per month from around

the world.) Bob has been in radio from management to broadcasting for

three decades including major stations in New York, Washington DC,

Miami, Seattle, San Diego, San Antonio, and Las Vegas. He left the

security of commercial radio to start his own program promoting vegan

diet and its connections to good health, ecology and animal rights.

He has now received an offer by Air America to go national one hour

every week on the weekend. However, he will need to guarantee

$200,000 for the next year in order to sign the contract. As he

often states, " Free speech is not always free! " With everyone's help

he will start May 19th. Now is the time for all vegans to come to

the aid of the radio program. Donations and pledges are needed

ASAP. If every vegetarian/vegan could pledge $100 it could happen.

Or if 200 vegans pledge $1,000, it would work. Contact him at 818-

623-6477 or meatfreeamerica to help veganism go national.

Smaller donations are also welcome.

 

Thanks much.
