| Summary: | For the 12 years of the civil war in El Salvador, a rebel radio station collaborated with elements of the Roman Catholic Church that shared a desire for a fundamental change in the country. In an overwhelmingly Catholic country, church leaders were regularly quoted and one priest in particular frequently spoke on rebel radio, supporting the insurgency. The alliance that brought religion to the rebel airwaves contributed to expanding the public sphere and laying a foundation for democratic decision making. |
