URGENT MESSAGE FROM WBAI - LISTENER SUPPORTED RADIO

We received an urgent message from David Kenney regarding WBAI - which carries his EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW AGAIN show on Sunday evenings. The station is in emergency mode, needing to raise at least $200,000 by the end of March or else risk losing their lease on the antenna at the top of Empire State forever. Your contribution will go specifically to the fund set up for listeners to help prevent WBAI radio from complete shutdown. By helping us meet the rising and accumulated costs for our transmitter at the Empire State Building you assure that WBAI will continue on the air. 
Our dire circumstances are due to a number of contributing factors: 
1) The 2008 economic collapse 
2) The devastation from Hurricane Sandy which forced WBAI to leave their downtown location and move to temporary administrative quarters and broadcast studios.
3) The loss of revenue when our Fall Fund Drive was curtailed because of the Hurricane evacuation.
4) Funds are already needed to establish WBAI in a new permanent location.
Please go to http://www.give2wbai.org and donate whatever you can afford.
