Guest guest Posted September 19, 2003 Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 KarenDawn (Karen Dawn) KPFK, the listener sponsored " Pacifica " radio station in Los Angeles has introduced a show dealing with animal rights issues. It is airing, today and for two more weeks, on Fridays at 2pm Pacific (5pm Eastern.) The station broadcasts throughout Los Angeles and all the way down to San Diego on 90.7 FM, and up in Santa Barbara on 98.7. And you can listen, anywhere, on the web at: http://www.KPFK.org This is on the front page of the station's website: " KPFK is pleased to announce a special 4-part series on Animal Rights airing on Fridays, September 12 to October 3 at 2pm. " Future shows will explore the laws and regulations that govern the use of animals in entertainment, the food industry, and the medical field, and resent alternatives to their use and exploitation. " Tune in on Friday at 2pm " Last Friday, Peter Singer and Ingrid Newkirk were guests. Today's guests are: PCRM's Chad Sandusky, a former EPA toxicologist discussing the promotion of alternatives to animal testing. Chris DeRose, founder of Last Chance for Animals, on B class dealers. Steve Ann Chambers, from the Animal Legal Defense Fund, on legal rights for nonhuman animals. And Bruce Mate from the Marine Mammal Program at Oregon State University. The producers of the show would like it to be permanent, not just for four weeks. Positive feedback will make that much more likely. Listen if you can, and please take just a moment to let KPFK know how great it is to have this animal rights show on the air.

Interrogate it, impugn it, tear it down, dismember it, bury it, and when the mood strikes you, dance on its grave! " My doctrine is this: that if we see cruelty or wrong that we have the power to stop, and we do nothing, we make ourselves sharers in the guilt.
