The Scott Horton Show

Update II: Scott’s fund-drive is now in full swing, with monthly subscriptions now available as well as one time donations. Please help keep Scott on the air!

Update: Do not despair! The Scott Horton Show is still on the Liberty Radio Network Monday-Friday 12-3 eastern time and KPFK 90.7 FM in Los Angeles 6:30-7:00 Pacific time Friday evenings.

Full interview archives (more than 2500 of them) are at ScottHortonShow.com, and full show archives are at DissentRadio.com/lrn.

Well, Antiwar.com is making budget cuts and so my gig doing Antiwar Radio and assorted assistant editor type jobs around the site is over.

My thanks to Eric Garris and the rest of the crew for having me these past 7 years. Doesn’t look like we’ve stopped any wars, but at least we told people the truth about them.

Also thanks very much to all the readers, listeners and volunteers who’ve helped me all this time.

I’ll be trying to keep the show going on the Liberty Radio Network and my own websites, but I’m going to need your help.

So, announcing the new Save the Scott Horton Show Donation/Sponsorship drive:

Have a company? Sponsor the show or advertise on the site.

You can PayPal scott@scotthorton.org, or stop by my blog Stress or email me scott@scotthorton.org for more information. I can also accept snail mail checks at 612 W. 34th St Austin, TX 78705.

I’m also open to suggestions.

And sign up for the show archive podcasts, interviews and the rest too at ScottHortonShow.com. My blog Stress, Facebook page, Twitter.

Thanks yall, very much.

…Fear Based on Fact?

While I work on pledge drive, I torment myself by playing CNNMSNBCFOX in the background. Today’s tortured viewing included a rerun of A Nuclear Iran: The Expert Intel.

It wasn’t as bad as one might expect –the calm measured Hillary Mann Leverett was given a reasonable about of airtime given the forum. Still, one doesn’t need to sit through a ponderous Christiane Amanpour interview to learn the facts of the matter.

Below, Antiwar Radio’s Scott Horton in a this now classic clip demolishing the case for war with Iran in under seven minutes.

Hey everyone, I haven’t quit, it’s just that the first week of the new year was tough going for interviews, and the second, I’ve had off. In the meantime, here are three from last week that I’m only now getting posted.

Thanks. Holler at ya soon.
