>>Greetings from KOOP radio, Austin Texas. I am a Trustee for KOOP radio. My
>>name is C. Paul Odekirk. I am writting because KOOP is concerned with the
>>labor dispute happening with Pacifica Radio and Local 404 of the United
>>Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America. I hope you all are
>>informed with the struggle. If not I can send you more information. 
>>
>>Although KOOP has decided not to take a stand on this issue, the programmers
>>at KOOP have voted to instate an informational disclaimer at the beginning
>>and end of Pacifica News everyday and several of our  programmers have taken
>>up the struggle on individual shows. There were two stories on "Breaking the
>>Silence", one on "Talking Union" and two on "Working Stiff Radio". The
>>programmers have decided to run the informational disclaimer and then take
>>stronger action if there was any further attacks on the staff and volunteers
>>at Pacifica stations.
>>
>>Here is the disclaimer that was voted in:
>>
>>We at KOOP radio in keeping with our commitment to free speech and
>>information would like to inform our listeners that Local 404 of the United
>>Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America is currently involved in a
>>labor contract dispute with Pacifica Radio. For more information listeners
>>can contact: 
>>
>>Pat Scott, Executive director of Pacifica, at:
>>E-mail, pos-AT-pacifica.org
>>1929 Martin Luther King Way
>>     Berkeley, CA 94704
>>     (510) 428-9196
>>
>>And the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE) , at:
>>
>>Hotline (212)465-7562
>>
>>E-mail, "Lyn Gerry" <redlyn-AT-ix.netcom.com>
>>
>>Or listeners may contact KOOP radio at 472-1369
>>----------------------------------------------------------------------------

>>
>>Are there any other Pacifica stations and affiliates doing anything on this
>>issue? I'd like to know how programmers at other stations feel about this.
>>
>>We have a list-serve for programmers at koop-list-AT-marystreet.com. If anyone
>>is interested in posting information regarding this issue. Our homepage can
>>be found at http://www.marystreet.com/KOOP/

>>Thanks for you time.
