The News From The WWW
As Read By The Voices Of The WWW

About The Program:

The News From The WWW is a weekly hour long variety news program for Radio Information Service (RIS) / sub carrier radio stations that broadcast news and information to blind, visually impaired, and print-disabled individuals.

The News From The WWW is read by professional voice actors who volunteer their services each week. Using their home based studios and the connectivity of the Internet, voice actors from around the world come together to make this show possible. Each voice actor is responsible for selecting his/her own news article each week from various widely read news sources on the web. While not necessarily the top stories of the day in the mainstream news, these stories are sure to be entertaining, thought provoking, and sometimes just plain silly.
