The Chris Hedges Report with Chris Hedges
After Hedges was de-platformed by The Real News Network, we lost access to it via audioport, Pacifica's file-sharing system. But I checked and it turns out WBAI has continued to have direct access and has been airing it. We ran an archival episode Sunday, not aware of that in time, so here is the most recent episode of The Chris Hedges Report that should have aired Sunday morning. The latest new episode will air next Sunday morning at it usual time.

The Fight for Abortion Rights; Assange Update
Eleanor Goldfield and Mickey Huff co-host this week's show. In the first segment, Amelia Bonow tells Eleanor how, owing to a welter of state restrictions and conditions, abortion has always been difficult to access for millions of women in the U.S, even before the before the Supreme Court's reversal of its 1973 Roe vs Wade decision: "Roe vs. Wade was never enough." Since the reversal, many states have outlawed all or nearly all abortions. But Bonow says changing attitudes, and the near-universal availability of abortion pills, mean that choice is still possible despite repressive state laws.
In the second half of the show, Kevin Gosztola returns to the program to tell Mickey the latest about the Julian Assange case: a recent ruling by the UK High Court of Justice that could complicate or even halt the Biden Administration's efforts to extradite Assange. Kevin and Mickey also take note of new attacks on press freedom and whistleblower rights taking place in the U.S., Israel, and Australia.
Amelia Bonow is cofounder and executive director of "Shout Your Abortion" (SYA), at www.shoutyourabortion.com. She's also on the board of directors of the Abortion Care Network

His book on the Assange case, "Guilty of Journalism," was published in 2023. Gosztola is also the editor of the Dissenter newsletter, www.thedissenter.org.
