Check out FoB on KBOO commercial free community radio in Portland,
Oregon tonight at 5 p.m. on the west coast (8 p.m.) here.

His friends are advocating for a credible investigation into who
murdered U.S. journalist and activist Brad Will. They are writing
letters, calling ‘their’ representatives, demanding hearings and
answers as to why, 4 months after he was shot in front of witnesses,
the five Mexican government officials who were seen shooting in
Brad’s direction have not been arrested and tried.

What is the U.S. government doing on behalf of a u.s. citizen and
journalist murdered covering the social movement and teachers’ strike
in Oaxaca, Mexico on October 27, 2006?

Find out.

Tune in to streaming video at www.kboo.org at 5 PST (8 EST) tonight!
