As WBAI continues its streaming only existence, Pacifica's Interim Executive Director, Bill Crosier, a man whose task is envied by no sane person, has posted the following:
Last night, the PNB met with two bankruptcy attorneys and our general legal counsel, and the report-out from the executive session was "The PNB discussed in closed session issues of legal, financial nature and did not authorized filing for bankruptcy".

Because the full meeting audio runs a couple of hours, I have excerpted what the two counseling attorneys said. To hear their response to PNB members' questions, you will have to listen to the full meeting.
What the consultants said.
It looks like it's just a matter of time now - Thursday's meeting should be 'entertaining'
ReplyDeleteThe balloon is going up gentlemen. Operation Big Tent is a go. Proceed to launch point delta one.
ReplyDeleteWait for the signal from our operative Siegel-One. The code phrase is Alameda Filing. Its been a long road but the goal is finally within sight. Don't forget the contributions of our leaders codename LydBraz and LesRad and especially our friend in Manhattan DCog. I..wait. I'm getting a coded message. 'John has a long moustache'. Fall out! Fall out!
I'm telling you, they're waiting for Santa to save them!

Wait, is the beg-a-thon on again? I just went to the website and hear that Mansion Rat woman asking for money.

It is indeed only a matter of time and of trivial detail at this point.

While checking for news on BAI, I stumbled across this remarkable article from 2009. Does anyone remember this? I don't remember 2009 being a renaissance year for BAI, but according to this piece, the money was flowing in at record levels, even in the midst of a huge economic downturn:

"Williams was ebullient after the station’s spring fund drive surpassed all expectations.
“This is a renaissance. This is a rebirth but it has to be sustained,” Williams said. “All the naysayers said it wouldn’t happen, but it did.”
The May 4 to May 30 fund drive took in $837,000 in pledges: $292,000 more than the station garnered during another 27-day fund drive in February and $165,000 more than its originally budgeted goal."
I don't think I ever saw that piece, but the Independent tends to come off as a propaganda machine for WBAI, so I don't have much faith in what they publish.
DeleteLavarn Williams was new and naïve, and look who was doing the station's PR—none other than Kathy Davis, a woman who would sell your dying grandmother a bogus bottled cure for cancer—and probably did so when she teamed up with Bates for double helix pitches.
As the current situation seems to confirm, it was all a trick of the light.
Praying and hoping the station goes belly up. I am a former producer and I hate the station - it is full of frauds and thieves. Working my potions and candles every day for an END to the station!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you one hundred percent and sincerely pray your Mojo Bag is 100 times stronger than Reimer's Voodoo.
DeleteWhat will be on the air waves at 99.5 FM in the new year? Any ideas?
DeleteLOL! Much stronger! Reimers has DOO DOO, not Voodoo. Maybe Trump will deport him back to Haiti!
DeleteAfter a complete investigation and audit, jail time, and stripped of his citizenship!
