		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to a grassroots campaign for local control, Pacifica treasurer and KPFA boardmember Tracy Rosenberg is facing a recall (see FAQ). If you are a KPFA listener-member, watch your mail for a ballot. [UPDATE: Pacifica missed its own deadline of 12/30/11 to mail ballots, provoking this petition and a formal complaint to California's Attorney General. It said in mid-March that it has finally hired an election supervisor, who has said ballots will mail in May.] When you do get your ballot, VOTE YES on the Rosenberg recall, which is endorsed by: CRAIG ALDERSON, Secretary, KPFA Local Station Board &#124; AILEEN &#8230; <a href="http://www.savekpfa.org/kpfa-listeners-look-for-your-recall-ballot-then-vote-yes/  ">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The elected Local Station Board at Pacifica station KPFK in Los Angeles has just joined KPFA&#8217;s board in passing a resolution calling on Pacifica to drop Jackson Lewis. As at KPFA, the resolution passed by an overwhelming majority. This steps up pressure on the Pacifica National Board to act now to cancel Jackson Lewis&#8217; retainer agreement. Got a minute to make a difference? Last time the national board met, it spent its time discussing how to block messages from listeners. This time, let&#8217;s be sure they hear the substance of our message loud and clear: fire Jackson Lewis NOW!

		<description><![CDATA[KPFA&#8217;s paid and unpaid staff turned out for a picket on a sunny afternoon last week in front of Pacifica&#8217;s national office to show their outrage with the network&#8217;s hiring of Jackson Lewis, the nation&#8217;s premiere union-busting lawyers. Labor journalist Steve Early addressed the crowd, describing how Jackson Lewis operates to undermine unions and predicting that both the political and financial costs to KPFA could be devastating. Unpaid staffer Tina Bachemin brought a statement of solidarity, noting that Pacifica is part of the &#8220;bitter struggle that&#8217;s going on now across America to smash unionism and wage war against workers.&#8221; Listeners, &#8230; <a href="http://www.savekpfa.org/lively-picket-at-pacificas-national-office-demands-firing-of-anti-union-lawyers/  ">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the date of Pacifica treasurer Tracy Rosenberg&#8216;s recall nears, her defenders are hailing her purported financial acumen and leadership at the nonprofit she heads, Media Alliance. So, how&#8217;s it actually doing? We&#8217;ve charted the financial data Media Alliance reports on the publicly-available IRS form 990. The numbers begin in 2006, the year before Rosenberg took over the once-vibrant media organization. Since then, revenues at Media Alliance have dropped by a whopping 76%, and the amount of cash in the organization&#8217;s bank account has dropped to just over $21,000 &#8212; suggesting Rosenberg&#8217;s spent down 83% of the organization&#8217;s cash.

		<description><![CDATA[COME TO A PICKET: KPFA’s workers have called a picket to protest Pacifica’s hire of union-busters Jackson Lewis and invite listeners to attend. It’s on Wednesday, April 18, noon-1pm, in front of KPFA. Be there, bring friends! Since news broke that Pacifica has hired notorious anti-union legal firm Jackson Lewis, a petition against union-busting at the network has gotten nearly 1600 signatures. Bill Berkowitz of Buzzflash at Truthout calls the development “a dramatic and disturbing departure from Pacifica’s progressive origins.” In his Politics in the Zeros blog, Bob Morris said the news showed that “the national board now directly opposes everything Pacifica used to stand &#8230; <a href="http://www.savekpfa.org/kpfa%e2%80%99s-board-calls-on-pacifica-to-drop-union-busters-picket-scheduled-apr-18/  ">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At its recorded phone meeting April 12, the Pacifica National Board (PNB) devoted a full 45 minutes to discussing emails it is receiving from KPFA members opposed to Pacifica&#8217;s hire of Jackson Lewis. Sadly, this conversation did not involve any re-thinking of the decision to hire the union-busting lawyers. Instead, PNB members debated whether or not to block the hundreds of protest emails its getting from listeners supporting SaveKPFA. PNB member Ken Aaron (KPFK/Los Angeles) said he thinks the people writing to the board &#8220;are not human&#8221; and their communications were &#8220;spam&#8221; that should be prevented from reaching the board. &#8230; <a href="http://www.savekpfa.org/apparently-kpfa-listener-emails-are-making-an-impact/  ">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier in the same meeting, PNB chair Summer Reese complained about KPFA listeners making &#8220;a lot of noise&#8221; regarding the election supervisor she hired for the Tracy Rosenberg recall vote. Hundreds of listeners have been writing the PNB to ask why recall ballots had still not been mailed nearly four months after Pacifica&#8217;s own deadline for that to happen. Over 1200 listeners have signed a petition demanding Pacifica appoint an impartial election supervisor from the American Association of Arbitrators or a similar organization. As we reported in our last issue, Reese recently hired a person named Matt Ward to supervise &#8230; <a href="http://www.savekpfa.org/keep-on-making-noise/  ">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

But in response to questions from SaveKPFA reps, Reese has refused to give any information about his qualifications or experience. She has only told us his name (Matt Ward), that he lives in Los Angeles, and an email address (kpfarecall@gmail.com). Ward also hasn&#8217;t responded to basic questions about when he will mail ballots, or how he will conduct the election. Margy Wilkinson, chair of KPFA&#8217;s Local Station Board, submitted these questions on March 20.
