Interactive radio bridge “Chernivtsi – New York” eventuated at the New York information and news radio station “Davidzon Radio” on the night of December 4 to 5. Secretary of the Chernivtsi City Council Vitaliy Mykhaylishyn became a guest of the radio broadcasting. He contacted with people from Bukovyna and Russian-speaking Americans in a live radio broadcast.

The idea of a ​​live broadcast occurred during stay in Chernivtsi of our compatriot Oleg Tubinshlak, known as DJ “Dusik” – presenter of one of the most popular radio stations in the U.S. “Davidzon Radio”, daily audience of which makes up around 500 thousand people, and the total audience is more than a million ones. Network of the station covers New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Boston. “Davidzon Radio” can be also heard online in the Internet.

While in Chernivtsi in the early fall of this year DJ “Dusik” – son of the famous athlete David Tubinshlak – was pleasantly surprised by the positive changes taking place in the city. No less he was impressed by openness and sincerity of the Chernivtsi City Council Secretary Vitaliy Mykhaylishyn. At the same time the idea to launch interactive radio bridges between New York and Chernivtsi occurred.

A few days before the program, having heard the announcement that for the first time it would be possible to communicate with an official from Ukraine in a live broadcasting at the Russian-language radio in America, a great many of calls was received from immigrants from Bukovyna. Employees of “Davidzon Radio” hardly managed to write down all the questions, so numerous they were.

More than 350 interested persons wanted to communicate with the head of the city municipality on the day of the program. Difference in time was 7 hours, i.e. it was 1 AM in Chernivtsi and prime-time – 6 PM in America (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Boston). Questions were very diverse and ranged from everyday – arrangement of the Jewish cemetery to global – renaming of the city of Chernivtsi to the known around the world city of Czernowitz and return monuments Black Eagle and Pieta to the city. People who called radio station «Davidzon Radio» were extremely pleased that they are listened in their native city of Chernivtsi, and that they can be heard.

Employees of the Office of Information, Public Relations and International Affairs of the Chernivtsi City Council, who together with Oleg Tubinshlak initiated and directly organized radio bridge “Chernivtsi – New York”, express their gratitude to the president of “Davidzon Radio” Gregory Davidzon and DJ “Dusik” – presenter of the “Prorok” program for the exclusive live radio program, which is likely to become traditional and enable communication and cooperation between citizens of Chernivtsi and “our Americans” – descendants from Bukovyna.

Chernivtsi City Council Secretary Vitaliy Mykhaylishyn noted that having talked with “American Bukovynians” he was impressed that the city of Chernivtsi – our “Little Paris” –wais loved and known all over the world!
