KPFA Local Station Board Elections
Meet the 2007 Candidates!
 
Pacifica Network is the only U.S. radio network with a democratically-elected governance structure. Our noncommercial broadcasting is Listener-supported, and supported as well by more than 1000 staff members nationwide, most of them unpaid. The Pacifica Network has survived McCarthyite repression, investigation by the House Un-American Activities Committee, and attacks from reactionary forces in this country.

The network is independent of government and corporate control, and thus is able to present unfettered public affairs programming as well as programs on music, the arts and humanities which are diverse and multi-cultural instead of profit driven.

This important network needs the support of all its listeners as never before. One part of that support is to become involved with the election of the Local Station Boards of each station.
