In Chilean Mine, what’s on your (underground) iPod?

The World

After seven weeks, thirty-three Chilean miners remain trapped underground in a partially collapsed gold mine. To help pass the time while waiting for rescue, authorities are sending various items down a 3.19-inch-wide supply line. Supplies range from food and water to magazines, Bibles, short stories, journals… and recently, an iPod with a variety of music.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
