Chiron Return is the 501(c)(3) nonprofit publisher of Planet Waves FM and Covid19 News. We are sponsored exclusively by our readers and listeners. Our executive director is award-winning journalist and broadcaster Eric F. Coppolino.

The Gemstone File is a searchable trove of digitized documents from the files of Monsanto, General Electric, Westinghouse, Dow Chemical, the EPA and other sources, amassed during the 35-year investigative reporting career of Chiron founder Eric F. Coppolino. We also maintain a portion of the documents in paper format as well.

Planet Waves FM began on Radio Woodstock in the mid-1990s, inspired by Father Bill’s Sunday late-night program on WPLJ-FM in New York City. We offer freeform talk and music format, with interviews, in depth reporting on scientific and political issues, cultural astronomy and astrology and Tantra Studio.

Covid19 News was founded in March 2020 in response to the covid-19 crisis. Since that time we have published 1800 items and host the most comprehensive news chronology of the crisis on the internet. We publish news and commentary from all viewpoints, including the most mainstream sources to alternative ones.

The XYZ List is our research team, where issues are developed, analyzed and debated prior to being published as original articles, on the C19 news feed or Planet Waves FM. This list serves as an informal journalism internship. If you are interested in participating, please email us at the contact address below.

Investigative Reporting from the Kitchen Table is our under-development class in investigative reporting. Look for installments in that class soon.
