KPFA Board Meeting LIVE
In conjunction with indybay.org, we will once again attempt to bring you a live KPFA Board meeting, this Saturday from Berkeley's Freight and Salvage
Live KPFA Board Meeting
This Sat, June 11, 11am
Berkeley progressive radio flagship, KPFA sadly, is once again in the throes of internal turmoil. Reports of violence and flying lawsuits seem to be pouring from the station on a weekly basis. The Station Board seems incapable of even crafting a simple statement condemning the violence. Meanwhile, stale and uninteresting programming is loosing listeners who now have the choices of a vibrant KALW, Air America Radio and newcommer, KPIG from Santa Cruz. New ideas in programming also seem to be headed nowhere. Proposals for new labor programming, flounder, as weak management lacks both the skill and courage to make the necessary changes. KPFA has always been a leader in community and progressive programming.This mission is now in a state of crisis. For more on the stations problems see: http://www.indybay.org/labor/
