WAIF Board Persecutions Continues

The WAIF Board of Trustees continues to persecute its members. This time involves two former WAIF programmers, volunteers, and long time supporters Lynne "The Happy Hemptress" Wilson, and Bill Polak.

The details of their administrative hearing are unknown at this time, but I find this so interesting especially considering the growing dissent amongst WAIF programmers and members regarding the mismanagement and corruption of the Board of Trustees. The fact the Board continues to hang themselves by throwing people out the station, revoking their memberships, and cancelling programs only serves to stroke their egos and not serve the interest of the general public. More to come.
