WBAI Shakeup Apparently Underway The situation at New York's WBAI-FM took another bizarre and disturbing
turn in the overnight hours. As reported here earlier this month, the
station's general manager was fired by the Pacifica Foundation, leading
to an on-air revolt by many of the station staff. Now it appears that
in the early morning hours, a replacement has been named and installed.
In addition, locks at the station have reportedly been changed.
