Proposal: How an Historic Pacifist Enterprise Meets its Demise

Proposal: How an Historic Pacifist Enterprise Meets its Demise
A coterie of corporate/major party outfits are raising the stakes in their effort to silence once strictly anti-war Pacifica Radio Network by threatening both its Los Angeles (KPFK) and New York (WBAI) stations with dead air.
