Google owns this blogspot.
and the STATS they provide are amazing!
for week of 3/6 thru 3/13/2018 these are the "audience" sites of those who VIEW THESE blog pages....'pageviews'
and then those elsewhere [as in serious governmental or media reporting sites about serious inter-government influences and friendships ] are also those who wonder about Russians "interventions".
As when far away states & nations may have any interest in a blog of a far leftie, and largely ignored by American
public ?
To read the misc. comments of what can be learned about radio station: KPFK's doings? huh?
even writers here can barely learn anything of reality or honesty about Our RAdio Station anywhere, on line, and certainly not on KPFK's property site as a 'public volunteer'.
Or even attending the disturbed, distressing Local Station Board = LSB meetings - to hear their continual arguments, anger, manipulations.
While these 'representatives" who do not represent anyone we have ever met - except, perhaps, their own small group of cronies & close friends Only ... while never giving all the rest of the $$$takeholders any feedback of what motions were passed or denied or discussed there.
LSB members mostly are just ignoring 'the paying public' - who take personal time & drive to attend those uninformative long meetings - who then may be allowed to line up for a brief - "2 min" or less - to address the whole room, with a tiny "public comment".
Meanwhile the LSB members barely seem to listen nor attend to those sincere words uttered by the public that has no power to give them benefits or fame or even a renewed vote.
They do NOT respond or show any indication that they heard or cared in any way about what that "public" person tried to share & communicate.
We know. We have attended many LSB meetings with same scenario and sad results Then, walking away after tolerating the many hours of the LSB members haranguing and arguing and shouting at each other.
And meanwhile LSB-ers were totally ignoring the small number of 'public' persons attending,those who were hoping to learn or even to share too. But. Not.
The listing of the time and place for LSB meetings is on KPFK's website, as is a list of those who claim to be representative of listeners or stakeholders [ listeners may not pay $$$, stakeholders do, often & loyally ].

Are these "bots" - those algo-un-rhythmic automated
programs that just visit or view or write 'fake news' ?
Those automated systems that are using a few honest facts and then twisting those into other mis-information for any total Effect THEY chose ?
Or are these sites [which are not locatable nor identified
further for blog owner ] just collecting information in case
it is of some economic or political use later, any time ?
Or do these programs then use what is here written in any how they can twist, edit, re-interpret, translate or USE whatever - that has been carefully, courteously, considerately written here ?
huh?
What weird results these are - for those ordinary folks, like us, that want to simply inform the Los Angeles KPFK audience, their listeners, the $$$takeholders of what has been researched and learned - in person or even on line.
With sources of info used given credit and noted for further reviewing by readers here.
We wonder.....
We don't know much...
We just do what we do because of old LOYALTY to what was long long ago an educational, vital, apparently-more-honest [tho never transparent ] local radio station.
[google image]
One that brought anti-war protesters together.
One that replayed philosophical lectures and self-help information that was "new and not just repeated over & over" in the 1960's and 1970's.
One that introduced listeners to what was not then easy to find on the inter-net [barely available to a few then ].
One that was interesting and seemed to be [then] a place where the do-good-to-more-than-oneself could meet or learn of others doing the same, with seemingly sincere intentions.
No more.
Repetitions of what was "not yet heard or shared elsewhere too" are now what is on-air, if that.
The very same people are heard, still : clinging-to-their-prime-access-to-air-time-slots programmers are still claiming innocence, and holding-tightly-on so no one else can enter the radio airwaves but them, same old ones still stuck there [as cronies tend to do, as government lobbyists & power-clingers hold on to their positions too, same way ] .
The programmers hiding behind the "not us - no-profit" status of the station, all the while they are denying and ignoring all the PAYOLA, favors, trades, PROMOTIONS of guests and products.
[google images]
Then all that is actually so much commercialism, that is denied it is just that and is not just a generous sharing of new, novel events, books, workshops, meetings, et al....all that is continually played on-air on KPFK now, is pretended to to be 'non-profitable' and no benefits gained...by anyone at the station or on air ? huh?
What an implied, & repeated lie !!!
As all listeners hear these infomercials, which are clearly product or people adverts - and all the P.R., plus the constant promotional [all the laudatory complimenting of people and their products] is announced = loudly & repeatedly.
As this pattern continues, as it has been for the many years ...of what has been also recognized as the radio station's deterioration.
Yet the idealistic ancient "mission" is repeated as if, but not, followed, or even true, now.
Sad.... to be complaining about the KPFK radio station - that had, long ago, been a source of education, information not found elsewhere, and idealistic purposes stated [ or those who donated $$$$ & listened assumed ] were adhered to, also.
We would prefer and enjoy complimenting all or any of the programs now being heard, but honestly ? we cannot. Not anymore. And the same laments have been written about the the other NY Pacifica radio station: WBAI.
Sadly.
Truthfully evaluating what is now rarely turned ON, anymore. Tho our loyalty apparent and here still remains.
Now, we also may wonder if it ever was what we then "thought" KPFK was, or we were then too decieved, but did not realize the PROMOTIONAL character and processes that are continually part of their claims of "non-profit", do-good for "others who cannot obviously help themselves "

All happening within KPFK is of interest and discussed here.There are No Other found websites that are Commenting, Questioning Our Radio Station. Join US here in creating TRANSPARENCY . Started 2012 to date, This has been our COLLECTIVE effort =seems there are no other KPFK blogs than this 1 ! Had to recently discontinue - whatever happens, doesn't much matter as same personnel, attitudes, barricades continue - as 2019 are barely any changes there.(c) mm + foto credit :(c) photosbyalexandria.com
