The 2013 film Greed Energy documents resistance to the farm, which this article explores and updates. (image/jpeg)

another KPFK paid up and fed up member
2015-10-31 11:51 PM KPFK and Pacifica Elections must meet a very minimum quorum/ amount of voters who Vote and participate, or the expenses [about $25,000?] are wasted and same-old Board members happily stay stuck in place, out of legitimate time but clinging to power-positions.
so VOTE if you qualify for their minimum contribution made this [fiscal] year. Call to inquire for more info at 818-985-2711 day hrs. or see www.KPFK.org for minimum info there. (text/plain)

KPFK Updating: a coup? or failure? or....
another tired KPFK payor
2015-10-26 12:04 AM KPFK may be the vital part of Pacifica's failure and the maybe sell-off to privatize a take-over...
or only a part of Pacifica's failures in administrative management,
or any competent oversight,
or their following CA state required audits and elections,
and honest business practices, accounting, and many more lapses...that have already occurred.
Updating some info for what is barely revealed to paid-up KPFK stakeholders. (text/plain)
