“Sorting out who is right and who is wrong in this story is a near-impossible task given the management blunders and

heavy-handedness on the one side, and the insults, harassment and threats on the other side. Both sides could claim the

and political effectiveness; KPFA and its defenders presented a resounding case that “free-speech radio”–Pacifica’s traditional

no-holds-barred programming–was threatened by a sanitized, NPR-style takeover by establishment liberals.” [The Nation]
