At this time WBAI-FM the Pacifica O&O in New York lost a lawsuit over its contract at the Empire State Building.

A judge has ruled against PACIFICA FOUNDATION noncommercial Variety WBAI/NEW YORK and THE PACIFICA FOUNDATION in a dispute with its EMPIRE STATE BUILDING landlord.
WBAI took to it's website to explain to listeners, "More than $1.8 million. That's the amount WBAI and the PACIFICA FOUNDATION need to raise immediately. That’s because Judge GERALD LEBOVITS decided against WBAI and the PACIFICA FOUNDATION in its dispute with the EMPIRE STATE REALTY TRUST over rent being charged to house our transmitter in the EMPIRE STATE BUILDING.
"PACIFICA NETWORK and WBAI Attorney SAM HIMMELSTEIN of HIMMELSTEIN, MCCONNELL, GRIBBEN, DONOGHUE & JOSEPH LLP says, "This was about as bad a result as we could have expected." He says political pressure is what is needed now."

It will be interesting to see how Pacifica Broadcasting's headquarters in Berkeley react to this one though. This is only a sample in a string of scandals affecting Pacifica Radio.
 
Perhaps a large ministry will help take WBAI off their hands for a fair price. :)


Truth is nothing is going to happen at Pacifica. We had decades of scandals at Pacifica owned stations I say nothing is going to happen its a rehash to all other scandals at that operation.
