New Pacifica Controversy in Los Angeles -- KPFK Shuts Down Listener Web Forums

A new controversy in the frequently controversial Pacifica radio network broke out in Los Angeles as KPFK recently shut down its online web listener forums. Before the shutdown, UCLA students associated with the ISSE had been posting on it links to articles on the World Socialist Web Site, http://www.wsws.org. Apparently, local KPFK management finally found a limit on free speech.

The Los Angeles Independent Media Center has details.
