: MG, Ukrainian radio NYNI in Philadelphia was organised by the latest immigrant, Ihor Shunda. The radio was interesting for the new wave of immigrants. But they did not support it. Even according to Ihor he had most support from the older generation of immigrants.
: Why is the forth wave so passive?
: I think they do not understand the importance of having media that would express their needs.
: In the United States, media is great power that has so much control over the society.
The older generation can not support everything. It's about time that the new immigrants realize that they are hear to stay and that they will not be returning back to Ukraine and that they should help the Ukrainian community by supporting radio programs and other Ukrainian organizations
Volodymyr,
I agree with you. I know Ihor and I definately miss Radio NYNI. It was a great program and it brought some new life to the Ukrainian community. It is a shame that the new wave of immigrants would rather spend there money at Russian concerts and restaurants rather than support a great radio program that was basically intended for them.
