It's not often that we hear of a new shortwave service starting, but it appears that Zimbabwe might be doing just that, according to VOA. "News 24/7" is scheduled to start on April 18th, and will be funded by Iran.
The Voice of America turned 65 yesterday.
VOA broadcasts in over 40 languages, and claims that it reaches an audience of 100 million people. Many of its programs are available online as streaming webcasts, and a number are also available as downloadable podcasts.
VOA also has two live audio streams, one for the News Now service, the other for the VOA Africa service.
Program guides for these services can be found here.
