Rescue Pacifica Press Conference at KPFA On Suspension Of Pacifica’s Non-Profit Status & Trump Like Purge
The Pacifica Foundation, which operates KPFA in Berkeley, KPFK in Los Angeles, KPFT in Houston TX, WPFW in Washington DC, and WBAI in the NY/NJ Tri-state area, has had its non-profit status suspended by the California Attorney General.
The foundation is already in a monitorship by the FCC which was brought about because of an attempt of KPFA “protectors” to remove the license of New York WBAI.
On top of this, a faction that runs the KPFA Local Station Board and the Pacifica National Board are purging delegates and PNB members who are critical of how they are running the foundation.
On September 19, 2025 a press conference was held at KPFA in Berkeley to report to the listeners and supporters of KPFA and Pacifica about there serious systemic problems at the station and foundations. Participants were from KPFA, and via zoom from KPFT, KPFK, WPFW and WBAI.
It was sponsored by Rescue Pacifica in Berkeley and Pacifica Fightback nationally.
