A. Mark Mericle - No crystal ball. Pacifica thinks they gave what we wanted in Houston about budget, no sale, Tomas Moran on Board, etc. Later, Mary Frances Berry said no mediation because they gave us everything. May be a face-saving device. Knows it's difficult not to polarize people.
Good content is in mission statement.
Activists are maybe 600, but listeners are 20,000. May not wish to listen to protests on Pacifica on air all the time. Many are doing it on air anyway. Need to fight against even larger threat. Would be open to having Kahlil on air.
