KPFA, “The Alternative Home Shopping Network?” aka Money before Mission!
KPFA is recording speeches by prominent progressives such as Michael Eric Dyson, Howard Zinn, Bill Moyers and others. The current management doesn't do this to play them for the entire listening audience when they are current. They do it to play us 30 minutes of an hour + speech to try to get us to buy it. This means that very few people ever hear it and those that do, don't get it for several weeks or months. Is this what KPFA and Pacifica was started for almost 60 years ago? How is this much different than corporate media? The current management has lost 5,000 subscribers during the Bush regime and increased the staff by 50% during the last five years! What's wrong with this picture? Just like in the country, it is time for serious change!
