The transition is officially moving forward as we hoped. I am truly humbled by how this turned out and I know this successful outcome belongs to everyone who stood up for the network. Let us keep a close watch to ensure things stay on the right path.

To: Summer Reese
From: listeners and staff at Pacifica stations KPFA, KPFK, WBAI, WPFW, KPFT and affiliates


The Pacifica Radio network is as fragile as it is important -- it cannot afford this protracted disruption. Please respect the decision by the majority of the elected Pacifica National Board, stop blocking elected board members' access to financial records, leave Pacifica's offices peacefully, and help make Pacifica's leadership transition a smooth one.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you have stepped up to support this cause. We are just a handful of signatures away from our first major milestone and your commitment is the only reason we have come this far. If you can help us cross that mark today it would send a powerful message that the leadership of Pacifica cannot ignore.

If you care at all about the listeners, sponsors, volunteers please show some respect for the decisions of the PNB. The Pacifica stations, with all their ups and downs, remain vital to the pursuit of democracy, peace, civil rights and just plain imagination.

Really, really awful conduct... I'm a long time listener (KPFK, KPFA) and it seems as if the situation is getting more and more ridiculous...I used to donate, but now I don't know if it's worth it anymore...

Summer, I voted for you to be a listener representative on the KPFK board - Now I'm asking you to respect the decision of the majority of the Pacifica National Board and leave Pacifica offices peacefully. It's time for you to go.

I have personally donated too much time and energy over the years (KPFA's first network, WireReady newsroom setup, Pacifica Key Benchmarks, etc.) to watch as an individual places her needs above the common good. You can't win. Everyone CAN, however, lose. Please desist.

This is ridiculous, Ms. Reese! I've already moved away from Pacifica as a donor and listener due to your bad programming decisions. It's easier to find good progressive news online. Am hoping that KPFA will get better again once you leave. Please go!

The majority on the Board have spoken. As advocates of democracy, respect the will of the majority and vacate the premises. KPFA and our entire Pacifica family can not afford the turmoil that you are causing. Please step aside now.
