Well. It's nice to know that leftist radicals are just as nasty to themselves as they are to the rest of us.

I've wanted to launch a leftist campus radio watch effort for some time. The cacaphony has reached unprecedented levels.

Fortunately, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting has established an e-mail address - comments@cpb.org - and a toll-free phone number - 1-800-272-2190 - to take comments on taxpayer-funded public broadcasting.

For the record...the comment line and report to conngress are worthless. Here is last year's whitewash link

It's written in a bureaucratic, mumbo jumbo style that would put you to sleep. Bottom line, they say "We are balanced, but we're gonna study it and do better."

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

I listened to KPFK 66-94,mainly for the music.John Davis is a gem.
I joined the volunteer staff as a news reporter and Sunday co-anchor from 76-79. I read conservative news items at will with no editing from mgt. MY first 10k was Jul 4th 1976,run by KPFK(still have the shirt).I was an AF officer that whole time !

In 1999, when the board adjusted its bylaws to make itself self-perpetuating, correcting a tax law violation and bringing it into line with the vast majority of non-profits...

I still think that Pacifica has tax code violations. As a 501c3 non-profit, they are limited in their political speech. A limitation that they violate every day. They are not permited to campaign for or against specific parties/candidates (Green Party literature can be found freely distributed at their offices, churches are prohibited from offering the same).

It's funny how the looney left says that George W. Bush had a bloodless coup to come to power. This is describes perfectly the internal takeover of Pacifica radio (which had gone largely to music programming) by the radical element that wanted to diseminate political propaganda around the clock.

Back in my liberal days, I lived in L.A., and I listened to KPFK frequently, but even I had to stop after a while -- it was just too loony. For example, the station had a late-afternoon show hosted by these two diesels called “The Revolutionary Hour” or something like that. The shoe featured lengthy rants about the glory of Cuba under Castro, sympathy pleas for money, and ringing calls for ”the people” the rise up and take control. The best part was their theme song: the show opened and closed with a rousing rendition of the “Internationale”, as performed by the North Korean People's Juche Chorale or the Young Communist League of Brooklyn Heights Glee Club or some such outfit. Even as a hard-lefter myself I rolled my eyes at that.
