PacifiCapo: Jew Free Radio Part 2

To read Part one.

As readers are well aware, RadioRote has taken issue with the one-sided Arabist position taken by Pacifica radio. RadioRote recently wrote Pacifica regarding this situation. Interestingly, this process ended up requiring two letters that vastly differed in approach and persona, as shall be seen below.

 

The First Approach 

The purpose in writing Pacifica the first time was to determine the type of media response they had prepared when faced with the inevitable accusations that go along with their intense bias which they express through their caustic  Anti-Western, Jew Baiting slant.  A strongly worded e-mail describing how Pacifica allowed people like Goodman, Wood and Bernstein to basically blow the news out of their arse was sent to each station.  Pacifica was also "challenged" to back up Wood's statement that he found written "primary sources" describing how the 'Founders of Zionism' had plans to massacre all the Arabs.  The e-mail sent to Pacifica also questioned why the "Flashpoints" news host, Bernstein, relied on third party unsubstantiated statements related to him from a hysterical "screech monkey" reporter named Wood without authenticating the source, or asking Wood to cite his material.  Further, the e-mail asked how Bernstein could have lost his objectivity and begin railing against Israel based on Wood's hearsay? The challenge was for Pacifica to investigate this matter and call these two whirling heads to the carpet if they could not back their contradistinctive statements. 

No one from Pacifica responded to this e-mail.   In defense of their corporate headquarters in North Hollywood, however, Pacifica Corporate could not respond because the e-mail address they posted on the Pacifica website is a non-working link.  An attempt was made about a week later, with the same "return to sender, address unknown" response.  For a community communications company, they certainly have problems communicating with their community. 

 

The Second Approach: Which Stench Attracts the Right Flies? 
Another approach was necessary to garner a response from Pacifica Radio  in determining whether or not their focus on "Zionism" was one of "alternative views" or  vitriolic hate mongering.  That is, did Pacifica merely (and insistently) bring up philosophical and geo-political viewpoints about the Middle East to show another equally balanced side, or did these "Progressives"  develop into  the same kind of intolerant hate group that used to blow up their Texas Pacifica radio towers?

The logic follows as thus: If the opposite of Leftists are Right Wingers, and they both exist within the same political arena, then must it also follow that both groups can, on occasion, become strange bedfellows?  Can this be especially true when such a collaboration advances each other's collective, yet distinct, ends?  

RadioRote then decided on a second approach. Instead of aggressively attacking their imbalanced reporting, as was done in the first letter, a persona we shall name the "Aryan" was adopted. The Aryan is a persona who takes for granted what Pacifica means when they say "the Zionist" and " the Jew" (see part one).  Therefore the second letter written by the "Aryan" offered Pacifica a new ally in their quest to reveal what "the Jew" is doing to the world by adopting an overt neo-nazi stance.  Writing as the "Aryan," RadioRote contacted all five Pacifica stations and their headquarters by e-mail under an alias user name and e-mail address.  The Aryan's letter of introduction to Pacifica is as follows: 

Subject: Jew Free Radio

Pacifica:

Great stuff you got going there, finally understanding what the White Aryans understood for years. That Jews control the media, the banks and are out for world domination.
At one time you Leftys were lost in the politically correct world of looking out for everyone. Now you have joined the White People who founded this great country and you are appreciated for the work you do now by uncovering the Jewish lies and the puppets they control.

Your reporting is superb, even if you have some of them doing the reporting. But, what do you expect, since they dominate the airwaves?

The Palestinian cause is to be sympathized with, because the majority in America know what it is like to be under foreign occupation. Your reporting on the Jew-controlled industries and Greenspan point that out very clearly, and are to be commended.


You talk about how you report the news that is not reported by the big media industry. We understand that, too. No-one takes up the cause of the White People and their plight against the occupation of foreigners who took over our country and are taking away our jobs, our values and our resources, just like what the Jews are doing to the Palestinians. As you point out, the media giants would not want to bite the hand that feeds them.

So, since we share the same ideas, we would like to apply for permission to present a White Aryan type show on Pacifica that will re-inforce everything you are saying. We are under-reported by the corporate-Jew media. We are living in a land occupied by others, and we are fighting the same fight.

How do we apply for national air-time on your station?

Non mihi, non tibi, sed nobis,

(Signed)....

Hence, the opening salvo is shot.  A white person, the Aryan,  who understands  Pacifica for what it is:  a news station that uses the conflict in the Middle East as a metaphor for what Jews and other foreigners are doing to the U.S.  The writer signs off with a Latin motto: "Not for me, or you, but for us." 

After the e-mail was sent a second time, (Pacifica's corporate e-mail is still unlinked), an interesting response was received from Pacifica's DC station WPFW.  The station snapped back: 

          Subject: Re: Jew Free Radio

You did not find this country. Although I agree with you that it is a great (sic). It was already here. And this so called building you did?? Dream on. This country was built on the free labor of slaves and don't you ever forget it. Got it? Good.

In short, two aggressive and opposite types of angry letters were sent to Pacifica, yet only one of them received an answer.  So, the question now remains:  even though they found the e-mail offensive, why then did they suddenly respond to the Aryan bigot? Perhaps because this worm was more suitable to their tastes. 

Be that as it may, it is much more interesting to note that the WPFW spokesperson took umbrage with only some of the statements made, instructing the "Aryan" in no uncertain terms that:

  • Only slaves built this country, and 

  • This country was here before the white man.

Of course, WPFW is correct that this country was here and populated well before the white man found it, they are astray in thinking that only slaves built it. True, it cannot be said enough that the "Peculiar Institution" known as slavery is a heavy blight on humanity.  However, when one discusses 'history' and current events with those who see everything in the realm of the extreme, the listener cannot expect to hear anything less that--the extreme.

But let's look at what was left out. Readers will notice that no reference was made to the Aryan's caustic remarks about Jews:

  • Jews control the banks, industry and media -- and will settle for nothing less than world domination. 

  • Jews are liars and are puppet masters. 

  • That Jews must be unmasked or our culture will suffer and, most interestingly in the area of Pacifica itself,

  • A defense was not made for Jews who work at Pacifica --as they are basically 'useful idiots' who further Pacifica's cause-- and  cannot be rid of, since they are a part of the larger Jew media monopoly. 

Is there an implication in these omissions? 

 

Plays Well With Others

As the nature and true intent of Pacifica is being revealed by layers, one might be reminded of that off-color story which involves a man and a woman at a bar.  Here, the man asks the beautiful lady if she would sleep with him for a million dollars, and she replies she would do so.  He then asks her if she would sleep with him for fifty dollars. The lady is understandably upset and replies that she is not a hooker.  The man answers that in accepting a million dollars to sleep with him, she already established she was....so now they are merely negotiating a fair price. 

In this context, Pacifica radio station WPFW revealed that they were not merely a station that reports the news in the Mid East in defense of the Arabs, but use that event as a feigned pretext to "illustrate" their more intolerant and incendiary diatribes against Jews in general. In knowing this,  it became merely a matter of  "negotiating an agreement" between Pacifica and the Aryan. 

Therefore, in order to smooth any "misunderstandings" about the nature of the "Aryan" show, a follow up letter was sent to Pacifica WPFW: 

Subject: Re: Jew Free Radio
I do not argue with you on this historical point, as you do not argue with how we, and Pacifica, feel about how Jews are oppressing us all.
At least we both have a common thread to work with and start a dialog. Your numerous shows on these topics struck a nerve and a wake up call.
So, returning to the question at hand.....how do we work in concert so that we can have a radio show?

Not for me, or you, but for us,

(Signed)

A response was soon received:  

Re: Re: Jew Free Radio

 You assume that all of Pacifica feels the way you do and that is wrong. I for one, don't feel the way you do. On a lot of levels you are dead on. But on other levels you miss the mark and mission of Pacifica. I will give you the number of  (name)  and maybe he will have a spot for you on the air. I hope not, but this is the land of opportunity. (number).

It  has already been established where WPFW and the "Aryan" part ways, and here their spokesperson again re-enforces that difference. However, the reader should remember where the Pacifica staff member affirms that the "Aryan" is  "dead on" target "on a lot of levels."

"Aryan's" 'correct viewpoint'  does not rest (as it is quite clear from WPFW's first letter) in that  complaint of too many foreigners in the US, or about White People and the development of this country --but through WPFW's willful silence over "Aryan's" remarks  that Jews are parasitic media monopolizing, industrial owning, bank grabbing, puppet masters and are a  threat to this country. In the interim, Jewish Capos must be tolerated at Pacifica, and Jews in other places, until they are fully unmasked  or blown away by the "alleged" 'Hamaside' bombers that Pacifica endears.  

From Pacifica's unwillingness to state in black and white the points the "Aryan" made that they feel were dead on, RadioRote concludes that Pacifica is well aware that their stance is anti-Semitic in the worst stereotypical sense.  Therefore, they were careful to avoid being called neo-Nazis. Even more telling: by not criticizing his anti-Semitic remarks Pacifica was equally as careful not to sever its relationship with the "Aryan."

 

See Pacifica Run 
Although Pacifica prides itself in being a community member sponsored station, a distinction they say gives them the freedom of being independent from corporate or government control,  Pacifica has received funding from the same source that National Public Radio receives it's partial financial support: The Corporation for Public Broadcasting. That is not to say that funds from NPR go to Pacifica, as NPR verified, but that both receive funding grants from the source. 

As CPB explains on its website    http://www.cpb.org/about/media/annualreports/2000/notes.html 

Organization
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (the Corporation), is a District of Columbia not-for- profit corporation authorized to receive federal appropriations under Title II of the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967, as amended. The Corporation is recognized as exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, except on activities unrelated to its exempt purpose. In addition, the Corporation is exempt from excise taxes as an organiza- tion (sic) that is not a private foundation as defined in Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The primary source of funding to the Corporation is the federal government. Congress has approved future funding to the Corporation through fiscal year 2002....

Not just a governmental entity, but corporate as well. If one were to visit the CBP radio allocation and grant page, one would find that the small  "community oriented" Pacifica Radio Stations received  $844,288.00 in government grants from CBP in 2000 alone.  So much for being a struggling independent voice in the wilderness.

 http://www.cpb.org/about/media/annualreports/2000/tbls_radio_comm_svc.html

Further, the Executive Management of the CBP reads like a Who's Who of leaders in Corporate America and US Government Agencies.  The same corporations and agencies Pacifica targets and criticizes on a regular basis:  Insurance Companies, Baby Bells (telephone), the USAID, Hill and Knowlton, Time-Warner, Advertisers, Conservative magazines, USIA, high ranking Clinton and Reagan officials, and Pacifica's favorite enemy -- corporate owned media, now have their former executives sitting on the CPB Board.  It is this same CPB where Pacifica submits their applications for  financial handouts.

The reader is now aware that Pacifica will sleep with anyone for less than a million dollars. 

 

Now We Are Pen Pals

A final letter was recently sent to WPFW:

 

Re: Re: Jew Free Radio

Dear WPFW Responder:

I think you missed the point and we are getting off on the wrong foot. We do not wish to create animosity over any misunderstanding. It is understood why you are angry. As you pointed out, you thought we meant foreigners in the sense of Arabs, Hispanics and whomever. I can understand why you would be upset. We apologize. We do assume Pacifica feels the way we do, (about Jews)  based on your hard hitting news and tough interviews.

If you remember our original introduction, we pointed out:

"You talk about how you report the news that is not reported by the big media industry. We understand that, too. No-one takes up the cause of the White People and their plight against the occupation of foreigners who took over our country and are taking away our jobs, our values and our resources, just like what the Jews are doing to the Palestinians.  As you point out, the media giants would not want to bite the hand that feeds them".  

You see, "just like the JEWS are doing to the PALESTINIANS". Within the context of our introduction, this is all we mentioned. Not those foreign and oppressed who are ripped off by the Bankers, the Media, the Federal Reserve,  and now the UN ( ! ) , or where ever else the Jews and their  fellow traveling Zionists are able to use their strong-armed influence. But, again, I am preaching to the converted, because it is your station that best gives a voice to those with whom they in the media silences. In DC alone, 26-29% of the slum lords are Jews. They may not be the majority of slum lords, but it is when you think there are a minority in this country. In the Arab refugee camps, as Pacifica Radio adeptly points out, their "ownership" is 100%.  

We hope this clears up any misunderstanding. We like what you say and, if given a chance, we can work from the grassroots (Volk) level and can work from a common denominator.  

So, are we better understood between each other now , since it is clear we are working for the same struggle?  

Non mihi, non tibi, sed nobis,

 (Signed)

P.S.  IF the misunderstanding is behind us AND we are all on the same footing, as we hope we corrected in this letter, then is there an e-mail where we can send our ideas, rather than calling (name), initially?

Do not be afraid of us, we are not the boogy men and women! We are all professionals with influence of our own. 

The slum lord statistics and idea that Israel runs the refugee camps are both false. But, so is Pacifica's 'hearsay as truth' as presented in their news reports.  We shall "await", with dull surprise, Pacifica's response.

Either way, Pacifica has already played their hand.
