WBAI Radio Drama
Yes, this posting was actually written a while ago on my other blog. It's just that this blog seems as if it wants to become nineteen eighty four George Orwellian like with it's times, dates and histories in my atempt to maintain more than one blog....). And what's that George Orwell 1984 book all about anyway?... Somehow I found myself at a WBAI local station board radio committee meeting today, (Which was actually the other day a while ago...), for listener elections or something like that. WBAI 99.5 Pacifica Radio is a listener sponsored radio station in the New York City area that I have been listening to for seemingly forever. And so they had one of many election meetings today and one of the many listener input and feedback meetings today. And a radio drama indeed it is to hear the drama ramas of a radio station that seems to be in turmoil and whose radio drama goes way back in time with its listener sponsored board and its behind the scenes or not so behind the scenes stories on how its radio station functions. And everyone at the meeting seems to want to save WBAI from itself and a seemingly continuation of a story told many years ago. And hearing all of these drama ramas at this meeting seems to reflect and mirror a microcosm of a current administration. WBAI is one of the last community radio stations around who gives an alternative voice to the people in this town. What will be left without the voice of WBAI. Is it possible to help save WBAI and the world. And what does this have to do with a No Police State?
