For those who don't know, Pacifica is the filthy, ultra liberal, public radio entity. I dance with joy at their demise and note the irony that their union helped do 'em in.

Why does the headline use the word “Talent”?

[MeganC]

The schadenfreude is tasty today.

[GeronL]

did their government subsidies not pay for all that crap??

boo-hoo-haha

[GeronL]

How much do they get in public broadcasting subsidies? I guess its not enough....

tomorrow there will be protests by 300 listeners demanding they spend money they don’t have to keep it on the air

[rottndog]

What will someone with a face made for radio...



...Do with no radio???

Amy Goodman can do a swan dive from the 86th floor of the ESB in protest for all I care.

The only thing that would break my heart more is to learn that everyone who was laid off will be diagnosed with AIDS on Monday as well.

[Chode]

who needs a news dept when all they do is broadcast what ever the mutt in the white hut sends them???

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

So why do they need people to air nothing? Or are they just going to buy CNN,ABC,or other MSM radio programs and cobble them together as some type of lib pool schedule?

I was wondering with the Dems running most things now when the choir was going to decide that it no longer needs it’s preachers.

[Billthedrill]

The local proggies will be sobbing in their beer over the demise of Radio Pacifica. I’ll be LMAO. I’ll let them know there’s always Rush.

You would think they would be doing great in this 0bama era with socialism on the ascendant.

[tet68]

I didn’t know they HAD any talent.
Another voice of socialism bites the dust,
just couldn’t make it in a capitalistic world.
Shut up and die, Beotch.

[Twotone]

Finally a story with a happy ending! :-)

[AdaGray]

It’s about time.

Gets more confusing from this related article;

“Reese said that payments due to WBAI’s $50k-a-month transmitter will be used instead just to make the next payroll.”

The rest of the announcement focused on Pacifica’s financial troubles. “I currently have four out of seven units which do not have payroll for next week,” Reese disclosed. “I’m looking to find $100,000 by Monday . . . that is where we are at.”

How do they expect to stay around with no transmitter? Lib money fairies aren't as plentiful as they used to be. They can always steal some government money as it's worked in the past for many leftist causes like this.

[PAR35]

They don’t need radio. The reds have the army in their pocket now.

[Argus]

I thought BAI was financed by a filthy rich Left Coast Bel Air Bolshevik who finally just ran dry.

[SharpRightTurn]

Wonder if they are canning that bimbo who hosted “Communism NOW”?

This is just so, so sad.

Pass the popcorn.

[crusher]

They have well-earned the epithet of “Radio Habana.” there is simply no collectivist fascist scheme they do not encourage.
