FW: KPFK Continues To Ignore Vegan / Animal Liberation Issues

May 24, 2005

[Anyone who would like to see KPFK radio (90.7 FM Los

Angeles) allow more coverage of vegan/animal

liberation issues - should 'please' contact the

stations program director (Armando Gudino) at

818-985-2711 and let him know you would like to see

more coverage of these very important topics. I hope

some of you will consider calling the station.

Specifically, let the program director know you would

like to see Bob Linden 'who has a long running

vegan/health show on an A.M. radio station', get an

opportunity to contribute to KPFK's line up as well.

For those that don't already know, KPFK is a listener

Sponsored, non corporate, radio station. KPFK is one

of the five sister stations of Pacifica radio. If you

don't live in southern California, you can listen to

the station online 24/7 at http://kpfk.org/ KPFK is a

very good station. They cover progressive left

political issues that have long since been lost from

commercial media, unfortunately. For more information

on Bob Linden's quest to gain a show on KPFK, read his

recent email (below) to the stations program director.

Note: you can also email the stations 'program

director' if you prefer, but calling is better of

course. Rick.]

KPFK continues to ignore vegan / animal

liberation issues

Armando Gudino

KPFK PROGRAM DIRECTOR

Hi Armando,

I am quite disappointed that you have been totally

unresponsive to my many contacts (no returned email,

no returned phone calls) since our April 8th meeting,

especially in light of a promised follow-up meeting

that was to take place the week of April 18 to

schedule an extremely long-overdue and much needed

series of vegan / animal liberation programs on KPFK.

While you procrastinate, hundreds of millions of

oppressed innocents have died, continuing to sicken

and kill the human population and cause world hunger,

devastating the environment and squandering resources.

Animal liberationists now wallow in prison cells,

victims of government propaganda and the shredding of

the Constitution.

Vegan / animal liberation programming is of utmost

importance to the cause of peace, human health, and

environmental sustainability.

What could be so important to distract you from the

most important issues of our time (Michael Jackson?)

and to deprive the KPFK audience of critical

information? One bite of a burger from Mad Cow

infected meat can be fatal. Dairy decimates a broad

spectrum of ethnicities. I don't hear that on KPFK and

it is a shame.

Have Republican propagandists infiltrated the KPFK

decision-making process? You are being an unfair

censor.

It is my intention to visit KPFK this coming Friday

and I hope that you will make yourself available so

that we may schedule a series of programs at least as

important as the weekly one that encourages the

purchase of gas-guzzling vehicles, or the one that

highlighted the romantic plight of drugged drag queens

(nothing wrong with that but - come on - you're

ignoring the world's greatest killer, the world's most

destructive force, the most evil of corporate

malfeasance). What's going on? Where are KPFK's life

and death priorities?

I urge you to act in accordance with the responsibilty

of your position and the Pacifica mission statement.
