Pacifica’s tradition of unhampered access to the airwaves has allowed our network to play a uniquely focal role in American media. We have broken pivotal news stories and brought issues and artists to the spotlight that may have been overlooked.

We distribute radio content online including one of the most extensive and important historical sound archives, the Pacifica Radio archives. With a network of over 200 affiliate stations, we are energizing independent community radio through collaboration, interactivity and program exchange throughout the network.
