JoAnn Kawell on Facebook What’s up with WBAI? Why aren’t THEY live broadcasting the Wall Street protests. Fer gawd sakes, their studios are right on Wall Street. Shame, shame, triple shame. This is final proof, if any more was needed, that the Pacifica network is completely moribund. Doug Henwood seconds that Excellent point. WBAI [...] The purges continue. The lunatics have taken over Pacifica Doug Henwood (his superb show on WBAI was killed last week) The idiots and maniacs who are now running Pacifica have decided to lay off the entire staff of the excellent KPFA Morning Show and to take it off the air: The show is the station’s [...] Doug Henwood had one of the good shows at WBAI, so of course it had to go. Henwood published his resignation letter For the record, as they say, here’s what I just wrote to Tony Bates: I really don’t want to do a show every other week on Saturday morning, and you probably [...] From Doug Henwood. His excellent show, Behind The News, on Pacifica affiliate WBAI is probably in peril too. No doubt many of you are sick of the whole Pacifica mess, but this is really important: if these layoffs go down, it’s gonna be 9/11 and chemtrails. From the excellent historian of Pacifica, Matthew Lasar: [...] Doug Henwood of Left Business Observer and WBAI’s excellent Behind the News needs your help today.

Whatever you’ve heard about the decline of Pacifica lately, well, it’s getting much [...] Doug Henwood (who has an excellent radio show about economics from a left perspective on Pacifica affliates WBAI and KPFA) reports that Pacifica may seriously go off the deep end.

Their board just had a contentious meeting debating whether to seat newly elected member Lynne Stewart. She’s currently in prison. Some said the board should seat her, then relay info about meetings to her and wait months for the reply. Actually, I [...] The WBAI Local Station Board (part of Pacifica Radio) wishes to apologize because their database apparently went kerflooey and restored itself to a year-old backup just before mailing labels for ballots were printed. Thus, many ballots were mailed to the wrong people while other eligible people didn’t get them at all. Even though [...] The precise moment when something iconic is headed to go downhill is called “jumping the shark,” from the Happy Days episode where Fonzie jumped over a shark on water skis.
