But at the last national board meeting, Moran was not allowed take his place on the committee. At this weekend's meeting, after producing minutes from Pacifica's own website showing that he was indeed a duly-appointed member of the committee, Moran was again denied a seat and Pacifica's security guards threatened to remove him from the room. While some of the deliberations were open to listeners and staff, other meetings were held behind closed doors. Contrary to board policy, KPFA representative Pete Bramson was not informed of the place and time of a closed Executive Committee meeting, and did not attend. The failure of the Board to address any substantive issues seems related to the seating of additional delegates opposing the current ruling junta.
Reports indicate so many procedural challenges that no real business transpired.
It was clear throughout the meeting that Mary Frances Berry remains in control of the organization, with no signs of departing. But there was no response from Pacifica board members or finance office officials. That report may give insights into the actual amount spent on armed guards and other expenses during the three-week lockout, since the Audit Committee had subpoena power over Pacifica's books as part of their work.
