WFHB FireHouse Broadcasting

This is a brand-new locally-produced program featuring lectures, town hall meetings, and other public forums recorded on-location at various sites in Monroe County. "Standing Room Only" amplifies voices not adequately represented in mainstream media to help raise public consciousness of issues affecting life in south central Indiana and beyond. In the debut broadcast, an expert on government-corporate-military connections speaks out against war profiteering and Indiana's Military-Industrial Complex. Jim Vallette is research director of the Sustainable Energy and Economy Network at the Institute for Policy Studies. His Bloomington visit was coordinated by the Bloomington Peace Action Coalition and recorded live on location for WFHB at the Monroe County Public Library on Thursday April 21st, 2005.
