[lbo-talk] Pacifica financial update

[John Adams]

The more I think about this, the more I think that selling the two 
commercial band licenses is a good solution. It might have been a 
better solution earlier, before the network had run itself into the 
ground financially, but it would still buy time to get WBAI back on its 
feet. Pacifica stations don't need to be in the commercial band--they 
don't sell ads--and those licenses have a higher value to a buyer than 
to Pacifica. I also think I know the buyer they need--the people 
working on the liberal talk show network, which +will+ sell ads. They 
have the money, and this would give them two flagship stations on 
opposite coasts in big markets.

Why not?
