Reactionary Larry Bensky attacks Pacifica Elections; Defends Morning Show Tantrum

by Keeping track
Today's whine by the Thug Hallinan Gang at 6:30 p.m. on the news not only proudly promoted the vicious tantrum by the arrogant swine called the Morning Show, after the engineer "coincidentally" called in sick, it interviewed the most reactionary defender of this gang, the infamous Larry Bensky.
First as to Bensky:

1. His attacks to callers on air:

As to non-profit elections, 10% is the usual participation at all non-profit elections. It is a problem with the American attitude toward elections.

As to the alternatives offered by Bensky's buddies, the Thug Hallinan Gang, here is how worthless they are:

Here is a good description of the staged sick-in by the engineers in SF and LA:
http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2010/11/09/18663681.php
"On Tuesday morning engineers based in both Berkeley and Los Angeles called in sick, opening the possibility for Allison and Edwards-Tiekert to host a renegade program."

Here is a good description of the vicious attack on KPFA this morning by Bensky's buddies. My advice to all who oppose this gang including Arlene Engelhardt it to not allow them to debate you or anyone else as they can air their grievances at their union hearings.
See Dr. Sapir's description at:

Here is the announcement of the November 11, 2010, 4:30 p.m. rally to save Flashpoints, Hard Knock, Full Circle, outside KPFA, 1929 MLK, Berkeley:

We the listener-subscribers are the employers of the paid staff and it is our station, not the staff's station. The outrageous slap in the face that we heard this morning on KPFA should never again be allowed. There is a forum for airing grievances, namely the union grievance procedure. We heard this morning the most arrogant, bully garbage this writer has ever heard from anyone. It might interest these bullies that there are 11 million people living in the Bay Area, some of whom comment on this website. We are female and male, old and young, and do not have time to show up at meetings. We are however listener-subscribers who were disrespected this morning by the tantrum of hate. This campaign we heard this morning was not just anguish about loosing a job from people who have skills and can find a job. If you have not experienced loosing a job in your lifetime, welcome to reality. We know this gang is promoting a Democratic Party agenda, and in fact their sponsors, the Thug Hallinan Gang, are proud open members of the Wellstone Democratic Club who openly promote their reactionary agenda.
