[lbo-talk] Why Not Sell WBAI?

[Joseph Wanzala]

I agree. I think one of the main problems facing Pacifica is the bloated 
staff rolls at KPFA and WBAI especially which lead to the constant need for 
fund drives. WPFW and KPFT run mostly on volunteer staff. If there are 
enough progressives in Houston willing to to radio for free, I think New 
York (and Berkeley for that matter) should at least be able to match that.
