Biography/History

The Pacifica Foundation is a pioneer in listener-supported broadcasting in the United States. It is a non-profit, non-endowed foundation which operates five FM radio stations. Station programming, often expressive of minority opinions and interests, is designed as an alternative to commercial broadcasting.

The Pacifica Foundation was created in August 1946, by Lewis Hill, a former news editor for a Washington, D.C., radio station, and several of his friends in the San Francisco Bay area of California. The first of the Pacifica stations, KPFA, Berkeley, California, began operations in April 1949. It was followed by four others: KPFK, Los Angeles, California, 1959; WBAI, New York City, 1960; KPFT, Houston, Texas, 1970, and WPFW, Washington, D.C., 1977. All of the Pacifica stations are known for a distinctive variety of programming, much of it “live”: poetry reading, book reviews, government hearings, lectures, concerts and popular music. They also have special programs which provide a forum for minority and/or unpopular groups such as homosexuals, the Communist Party, U.S.A., and the John Birch Society. KPFA programs are also carried by KPFB, Berkeley, and KFCF, Fresno, California, as well as other affiliate stations.

Pacifica programs have won broadcasting awards as well as stirred controversy and criticism. The awards include the George Foster Peabody Award (KPFA, 1957, and KPFK, 1961), Sigma Delta Chi Radio Newswriting Award (KPFK, 1960), Prix Italia (WBAI, 1963), and a number of Armstrong Awards. Criticism of station operations led to a 1963 United States Senate Internal Security Subcommittee investigation of charges of Communist infiltration of Pacifica and a Federal Communications Commission investigation, 1963-1964, on the same issue as well as that of obscenity. Also, the stations have been subject to charges of bias from individuals and groups at both ends of the political spectrum. KPFT, Houston, was bombed twice during its first year of operation (1970) and numerous attempts were made to block the establishment of WPFW, Washington, D.C. Pacifica was also identified with the anti-Vietnam War movement (Pacifica had its own correspondent in Vietnam) and domestic underground political groups; the stations acted as conduits for information and demands by such groups as the Weathermen and the Symbionese Liberation Army.

Though Pacifica stations have developed a large and loyal audience, they have experienced frequent financial difficulties. KPFA had to leave the air for nine months, August 1950 to May 1951, to raise funds for continued operation. Nevertheless, the stations have been able to maintain fairly continuous broadcasting despite deficiencies attendant upon poor financing, e.g., lack of adequate full-time staffs (many volunteers are used), and a paucity of equipment and operating space. Although dependent upon listener support, the stations have received other forms of aid. In 1951, for instance, KPFA was awarded a three year Ford Foundation grant for adult education. Sales of program tapes, begun circa 1966, provide another form of income, albeit modest. Still, the listeners provide the major portion of station operating budgets; the stations even rely upon special marathon events and benefits to attract additional listener support when funds fall short of operating expenses. For the most part, this reliance on the financial support of the listening audience has resulted in station involvement in community issues as well as community participation in station programming. On the national level, the Pacifica Foundation has assured its stations and listeners a voice in the development of broadcasting policy through membership on the National Board and the Administrative Council.

U.S. Mss 153AF
Part 1 (U.S. Mss 153AF): Original Collection, 1949-1976
Physical Description: 23.0 cubic feet (12 archives boxes and 19 records center cartons) 
Scope and Content Note

The records of the Pacifica Foundation document the activities of its first four FM radio stations. Though not extensive, this documentation is best for station programming. Except for the minutes of recent national meetings, there is little that pertains to Pacifica policy-making. The collection is divided into four series: general, broadcasting controversies and complaints, station operations and programming, and KPFA daily news scripts.

The GENERAL series contains background information, correspondence and memos, personnel lists, financial and fund-raising data, policy guidelines (1965 and 1966), newsletters, minutes of national meetings (which often contain station reports), promotional material, and a copy of The Exacting Ear: The Story of Listener-Sponsored Radio and an Anthology of Programs of KPFA, KPFK, and WBAI (1966), edited by Eleanor McKinney. Also included here are catalogs, promotional literature, and related material concerning Pacifica's affiliate membership program and tape sales. The BROADCASTING CONTROVERSIES AND COMPLAINTS series contains records of the investigations of Pacifica by the United States Senate and the Federal Communications Commission, 1963-1964. Included are the proceedings of the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, Pacifica's reply to the FCC charges against KPFK programming, news articles, and a draft study (circa 1967) about both investigations. The series also contains copies of complaints about Pacifica stations, 1969-1970, and material concerning opposition to the establishment of WPFW by the periodical Barron's, April 1970.

The STATION OPERATIONS AND PROGRAMMING series is divided by station; most of the material consists of program guides issued to subscribers.

The guides are fairly comprehensive for KPFA, KPFK, and WBAI. In addition to schedules of programs, the more recent issues of these guides frequently contain such items as reports of station financial status, data on community support, letters from subscribers, and feature stories on issues and events of local significance. Although there are some news releases about the KPFT bombings and miscellaneous material concerning WBAI (minutes of a local board meeting, 1975, news articles, and promotional material), documentation of station activity, exclusive of program guides, is adequate only for KPFA and KPFK. The KPFA portion of the series includes a pamphlet by Lewis Hill, Voluntary Listener-Sponsorship: Report to Educational Broadcasters on the Experiment of KPFA, 1958; news articles and related material on KPFA employee strikes, 1964 and 1974; promotional material; and transcripts of programs and special news reports, 1955-1970. KPFK has a station prospectus, 1959; an employee contract, 1964; a pamphlet containing transcripts of KPFK programs, 1963-1964; a copy of a book, Dallas in Wonderland, by Paul V. Dallas, General Manager and Director of Programming of KPFK, 1966-1967; and KPFK promotional material.

The KPFA DAILY NEWS SCRIPTS series consists of nineteen cartons of partially processed news scripts, 1963-1973. Most of these scripts fall within the period 1968 to 1972. Twelve cartons contain scripts in chronological order; the balance are divided by subject, then by country or region, and include indexes prepared by the KPFA staff. Coverage and indexing of news scripts for the Vietnam War, 1967-1969, is especially noteworthy.
