(AVRN) American Voice Radio Network

American Voice Radio Network, know as AVRN, is an alternative (as opposed to the main stream corporate media), non-corporate, non-business, American free press (as referenced in Amendment I [originally Article the third of the Bill of Rights] of the Constitution of the United States of America & Article I, Section 1 & 8 of the State of Oregon constitution) not-registered, not-licensed, constitutionally ordained and protected entity (the press).
AVRN began its first satellite (C-band) / internet (16k mp3) /SW (WBCQ) broadcast in 2004 as an extension of The American Voice Newspaper which was a nationally available subscription newspaper. American Voice Radio Network (AVRN) started in 2004 primarily because "patriots" were being taken off the air of "patriot/freedom/christian" media outlets when someone with more money came by and wanted the time or an advertiser didn't like what they heard. For several months I produced the radio network and published the newspaper. Eventually I realized I could no longer do both, there didn't seem to be enough hours in the day and the diminishing support for the printed word made it clear to me to exclusively focus on the radio network.
AVRN was created to give "average" Americans an opportunity to be heard. In order to fulfill that mandate we had to figure an alternative way to fund network operations. We needed something different than the advertiser controlled and manipulated system utilized by the mainstream media and sadly many so-called "alternative" media outlets today. Too many so-called "radio networks" are just an echo chamber of the most popular "conservative" hosts that they rebroadcast/simulcast in order to have content to wrap their advertising around. AVRN strives to create unique original content. AVRN has continuously broadcast 24/7 since 2004.
The advertiser controlled "system" is currently being used to strip you tube content makers from advertising monetization. You tube calls it an "advertiser friendly" policy. What this means is that the international corporations funding the you tube platform through advertising dollars get to dictate what information providers get paid and what information providers don't, just like mainstream media and far too many so-called "alternative" media do. This is NOT a censorship problem it is a "operating model" problem.
AVRN hosts equal trade compensate for their own airtime. The hosts can sell ad spots to help with, completely cover their airtime costs or more. The idea is that a host is far less likely to get an advertiser that will disagree with their presentation than a random advertiser may.
