WORLD SERVICE


大象传媒 and US public radio stage a global phone-in about September 11th


大象传媒 World Service is teaming up with the Washington based public radio station WAMU 88.5FM to bring Living with Terror after 9/11: The World Speaks to audiences around the world.


The live international call-in on Saturday 7 September will enable listeners to speak their minds on the state of the world post September 11th.


Presented by 大象传媒's Robin Lustig and America's leading TV and radio broadcaster Deborah Amos, the two-hour phone-in show will be broadcast live from the 大象传媒's Washington studios and, in addition to 大象传媒 World Service's 40 million English-speaking audience, will be available to more than 700 public radio stations.


Thanks to collaboration between the 大象传媒 World Service and WAMU, people from around the world will be able to call toll-free, speaking their minds, and hear other views on living with terror after the events of that day.


The conversation is likely to touch on whether the US is to blame for rising terrorism around the globe, how the US-led war on terrorism is impacting others and whether it can ever be won.


They will also try to explore how people in places like Ireland, the Basque region and Algeria have coped with a constant threat of terrorism in their daily lives.


Robin Lustig said: "This will be a unique opportunity to hear directly from people all over the world how those terrible events of a year ago have affected them.


"It will also enable Americans and non-Americans to talk to each other, to compare their feelings and their fears, and to try to bridge the gap that sometimes seems to separate the US from the rest of the world."


Questions and comments should be sent to september11@bbc.co.uk


In the UK the programme can be heard on 648 MW.
