In this episode, we learn how FCC Chairman William Kennard was convinced by the radio pirates to open up the FM airwaves for communities to start their own low power radio stations, and why the major broadcasters were so opposed to the concept of low power community radio.

Also airing on WRIR 97.3 LP-FM every First Friday at 9am right after Democracy Now! Stream every First Friday at wrir.org
