This page has a lot of information without a source/citation (particularly in the last section) and needs a clean-up. Varchoel 13:27, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

The link for Larry Lee points to a different Larry Lee. I knew this Larry Lee personally. He was not a musician.

[edit] More History?

I would like to see more historical information, especially some of the more colorful characters that have made KPFT home, such as Ray Hill. There is currently no information here about the KPFT lineup, or even any kind of feel for what kind of music KPFT plays, or the mix of music versus local and ethnic affairs programming.

Referring back to what IS in the article, about the Ganter Period... that brings back some memories! I Was there. I housed and transported a group of activists from New York who came here to Houston for the last Pacifica Nation Board meeting of the period. Heck, I stood up and SPOKE at that meeting. :) Ah, good times! Bill W. Smith, Jr.


[edit] Bullets and Pledge Drives

The piece states, "In the early morning hours on August 13, 2007, a bullet was fired into the studio, breaking a window and narrowly missing a woman's head. No one was injured. The shooting followed a week-long fundraising drive."

This suggests that the gun was fired as a result of the fundraising drive. While the drives are an irritant to listeners, they don't usually generate gunshots. Should this be re-worded to remove the implication or was the gunshot a result of the drive?
