KO.OP-FM in Austin,, Texas---a Pacifica affiliate---has been running an informational
disclaimer before and after its broadcasts of the Pacifica Network News. This is the revised disclaimer, as of 12-18-96.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Hey all!

KOOP Radio has received new information on the Pacifica/UE issue. This is a revised disclaimer to reflect this new info.

P.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Pacifica Network News is produced by a unionized work force with a contract but the Pacifica Foundation is currently in a labor dispute with unionized workers at WBAI/New York and KPFK/Los Angeles. Pacifica is no longer using a union busting consulting firm for it's contract negotiations with the United Electrical Workers. Pacifica has has said they will negotiate with the UE in good faith with the goal of having a fair contract with it's unionized workers but Pacifica has not withdrawn it's attempt to exclude 90% of the workers from union protection or other contract proposals that the workers do not consider fair or equible. KOOP will continue to monitor the situation.

For more info,

Call the United Electrical Workers at: (412) 471-8919

Call The Pacifica Foundation at: (510) 428-9196
