Script/Transcript for program: Pacifica to set up puppet local boards (excerpt)
(sample anchor lead-in from Community Radio
Relay, not part of original Flashpoints program)
The governing board of the Pacifica
Foundation recently held a secret
meeting by phone, at which two members
were delegated to set up "shadow"
Local Advisory Boards at each of the
five stations. These new boards would
be separate from, and presumably would
be intended to replace, the existing
local boards such as the one now being
elected by KPFA's listener-sponsors.
California nonprofits such as Pacifica
are generally prohibited from conducting
business in secret, and board member
Tomas Moran revealed the plan in
an interview with Dennis Bernstein on
KPFA's Flashpoints program.
