Noam Chomsky on Democracy Now! ; you’ll only hear him on the radio in Baton Rouge on 96.9FM

Tired of the spectrum of opinion on your radio being between Rush Limbaugh and Walton & Johnson? So are we. We’re Baton Rouge Community Radio.

You can hear DN! on WHYR-LP, 96.9FM Baton Rouge Community Radio twice a day, 7:00-8:00am and 4:00-5:00pm, Monday through Friday.
