This income has made it possible for RFPI to fulfill the original dream and be ready to face the opportunities of the future. In terms of the capitalistic global exchange economy that isn't fair. However, there are no free lunches and there is no free airtime.
Someone supports every hour of the broadcast day and night.
If a program isn't providing airtime support because it is not financially possible, that means RFPI and its Friends are subsidizing the broadcast. RFPI has always strived to have excellent programming on the air, whether or not it is financially possible for that program to pay for airtime. We have chosen not to use the conventional media models of pay for play, or advertising support. Yet the station needs to pay the electricity bill that seems to come in regularly, like it or not. Everyone has to think about their budget, also.
