[Swprograms] Ian McFarland Speaks His Mind

["Sergei S." <radonezh@xxxxxxxxx>]

We catch up with a former colleague in Canada
 
by Andy Sennitt and Thorsten Koch, 6 May 2004
 
One of the most well-known and distinctive voices on
the international radio dial belongs to Ian McFarland.
The long-time host of the weekend English broadcasts
on Radio Canada International left RCI in 1991, and
went to work for a couple of years at NHK in Tokyo,
which he admits was something of a culture shock. 

After his return to Canada, Ian spent a few years
working as a voluntary ambassador for international
broadcasting, before finally settling down for a
well-earned rest. Ian and his wife Mary currently have
a home on the shores of Vancouver Island, and it was
there that Thorsten Koch caught up with him and
persuaded him to talk to his video camera. He may no
longer be on the air, but Ian still has some very
strong opinions about the current state of
international broadcasting.

We've split the video into five chunks, separated into
different themes.
