A long, detailed report to KPFK listeners by the interim general manager is interesting, full of information and towards it's end reveals that a portion of KPFK Local Station Board members want to SELL the property & building to pay WBAI's debts -
& that now might be Pacifica's debt ? The easy OUT to get back to Pretending that Pacifica -the so called 'umbrella' under which a few stumbling radio stations are ruled or controlled or indebted to is trying to save it's ever-changing players ...
a few smart 'save-us-not-the-world' - who want to BUY out the broadcasting valuables and sell the 'store' to pay the losers .
[ WBAI staff, management and who ever allowed or caused the huge, un-pay-able debt that everyone else is burdened with every since - are not heard from nor are their excuses or positions find-able to be held personally accountable - as far as can be searched....]
All that was so badly done, that failed 4 more radio stations along with it's sinking - tho a few years ago done, the NY Court then ordered monies to be repaid = but by no station that could be even earning enough to sustain themselves alone !
If this version of the sad, bad, stupid story is incorrect or limited, please make a fact-check correction & with references if they are available.
So tho it seems ridiculous, the current i GM wrote that most management staff functions are now being completed by Volunteers ? huh ? With what future promises included ? that is not hardly possible with just 'good free will' and no enticements or rewards given ?

Read as much as is possible in various segments if so needed, to absorb all the carefully included details in the iGM's report. No one would easily find this information, even by searching thru KPFK's own website - but Google could locate it. Prompted by 1 single comment at 6 am 1 weekday by 1 host. hmmmm
The next strange event is when searching thru the KPFK website for contacts, or names of staff or their emails ? dont bother. "Somethings' Happening" show host is not listed as staff or whatever other label paid workers are claimed to be by title -- as only 2 women of long positioned place are listed now, as of March 2023.
See for yourself. Or call to see if there is anyone 'home' ? answering telephone ?

No one has ever responded to emails for the last 10+years so that is still a futile & waste of good time/ effort/ work/ good intentions and queries are ignored + apparently not-wanted!
If these comments 'sound like' complaints, they are repeats, old, stay the same as nothing improves and 'funds' continues to be the [non-profit but still corporate]word there. Dont ask for anything but do send Money !!!! Nothing more happens from outside to inside there.
