Silence Of "Concerned Listeners" Show Where They Stand On Democracy At KPFA In an effort to rig and destroy the democratic election process, KPFA managers have stalled getting statements on the web page of the candidates, prevented the radio carts and even announcements of the election during the pledge drive and have supported by their silence the efforts of Interim Executive Director and Pacifica's conflicted counselor Daniel M.
