Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!
Amy Goodman

The San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Berkeley City Council has interrupted its summer recess to pass a resolution criticizing Pacifica, governing foundation of KPFA, and calling for the immediate reopening of the station. The resolution also calls for the removal of armed guards. This comes amidst reports from the Chronicle that Pacifica’s board plans to vote on a proposal to sell the station. Mary Frances Berry, Pacifica Foundation Chair, emphatically denies that there are any plans to sell the station.
