WBAI is listener-supported radio. As a member of the Pacifica chain of radio stations, it provides a vast array of original programming to listeners in the Metropolitan New York City region and worldwide on his site. The Pacifica Foundation was launched by pacifist Lew Hill in 1949 with the first ever listener-funded radio station - KPFA, Berkeley. The Pacifica Mission called for radio that would:
"foster understanding amongst nations and individuals, encourage creativity, and promote innovative, uncensored distribution of news."
