EXPLANATION:


Proposals coming out of Berkeley California have been submitted to the national board of the Pacifica Foundation (which owns WBAI and four other radio stations) to sell, lease or swap WBAI's signal, which broadcasts from the giant antenna atop the Empire State Building. We oppose any sale, leasing or swapping of WBAI non-commercial, listener-sponsored radio, as we move to increase listenership and seek to enable it to sustain itself -- as part of the Pacifica network.
