KPFA "Recall" Ballots Mailed
Ballots will be mailed today. Vote NO!
Here's why:
https://www.stopthekpfarecall.org/
Read. Don't just go by what the entrenched staff spouted on the air, when they violated policy. There will be a "debate" by the way:
On Friday at 1 PM there will be an on-air "discussion" moderated by Matt Ward, with Tracy Rosenberg and a representative from the group sponsoring the recall election. The recall proponents tried to prevent an on-air debate, arguing that Tracy didn't have the right to air time and that they would not participate. But, when the recall supervisor told them he would not mail the ballots if they did not participate, they acquiesced! If I'd been the recall supervisor I would have told them, "Fine, don't participate. You've been invited and, if you don't show up, Tracy will have the hour unopposed."
There will be time for call-in questions starting at about 1:30 -- DO call in to (510) 848-4425. If you cannot listen live, presumably you will be able to listen in the KPFA Archives. Programs are archived by date and time. We'll post a link at www.stoptheKPFArecall as soon as it is available.

Re: KPFA "Recall" Ballots Mailed
I am sick at heart that station funds are being used to finance this charade. Talk about ironic. Shame on SaveKPFA!
The on-air discussion today between Rosenberg and Wilkinson showed up the recall campaign for the vindictive vendetta it is. Rosenberg gets an A+ from me for her performance today. She came off as principled, intelligent, articulate, incredibly knowledgeable, and dedicated to KPFA's health and longevity. She maintained calmness and civility throughout a challenging hour and spoke without a trace of malice . Ms. Wilkinson in contrast came across as snarky, delivering half-truths, and hellbent on removing Rosenberg and Pacifica director Arlene Engelhardt no matter what the cost to the station and the network.
I hope SaveKPFA gets its comeuppance from the listeners in the recall election.
