Amid recent reports about the uOttawa's campus community radio station, CHUO, and its uncertain future, we are reminded of a simple truth: when local media vanishes, we all lose.

Read our statement.

2/ Just over $10,000 to go in CKCU Funding Drive.

Reminder, it's "CKCU 93.1 FM Day" in Ottawa today as proclaimed by the City*, for @ckcufm.bsky.social 50 Y👂s

First community-based campus radio station in Canada!
Donate: cod.ckcufm.com/pledge/index...

*even Mayor Sutcliffe was a former volunteer
A partial screenshot from the CKCU website: on black background, in white text at top it says "LET's GOOO!" followed by a red box "Donate Now." There are the cut-off ends of four lines of text on the left-hand side underneath, "for 50 years", "range of", "or holding", "builds trust". In the middle is the logo in yellow and white, with a '5' and '0' on top with a 'Y' and an image of an ear with a small 'S' afterwards. At the bottom is a bar indicating the funding progress, the filled in grey bar has "$183,002.18 raised" written within it, then there is a small red part of the bar to the right, with "$193,100 goal" written beside it.

Think you have great taste in music? Donate $109.31 during our funding drive and come host an episode. You pick the tunes for 2.5 hrs and I take care of the rest. If your taste in music extends beyond Top-40, I think you would love this experience.
