Update on Amy Goodman's situation with Pacifica radio network Amy Goodman is now back on the air at all five Pacifica stations. As a result of legal actions, none directly related to Amy's situation, a court settlement established a new interim Board of Directors for the network. In late December, this board voted to reinstate Amy's Democracy Now! program. All but one of the five network-owned stations (New York's WBAI) obeyed the board's direction. Last weekend the new board met in person. Among its actions was to fire the WBAI's station manager. As of this week, Democracy Now! has been airing for its full hour on all the stations.
