Not every reception will be from a globalist source.

A decent quality shortwave receiver with an outdoor antenna can pick up transmissions from all over the world, at least at night.

In addition, if the receiver covers single sideband frequencies, it can pick up independent HAM operators.

Finally, some radios can be powered by hand-cranks or batteries. So, you can listen even if the power goes out.
