Concur, but need a clarification.

I'm not sure of the criteria is to be considered part of NPR.

I know that NOTE 5 - GRANTS in the last audited financial report at pacifica.org say the five Pacifica stations received $1.2 million from the Corporation For Public Broadcasting that year.

United For Peace and Justice's Leslie Cagan is the head of Pacifica's Board.

Well remember NPR is only one part of "Public Broadcasting". PBS is the other major part...but PRI, Pacifica and others are part of the same octopus. They are all funded, in part through the Corporation For Public Broadcasting (CPB). The bookkeeping would make an Enron accountant blush but for example # 18 Amy Goodman and I think # 16 Counterspin are hosted by Pacifica.
(Minor correction; # 39 Garrison Keillor of Prairie Home companion is PRI, but heard on mostly NPR stations...I need a drink)
