National Election Supervisor Terry Bouricius has appointed Soul Watson as the 2012 KPFK Local Election Supervisor.
Soul Watson has over 17 years of experience in broadcasting on two different continents. Having worked in Africa for ten years with the African Union, CNN and TCN as well as owning and operating his own multi-media company (Soul Media Ltd.). Upon returning to USA in 2010, Soul has worked for some of the most notable independent broadcast companies including KUVO, as a morning show producer and host with 'The Takeaway' (A PRI morning show production), KGNU (Colorado's first and most popular independent progressive radio station) and most recently with Free Speech TV as a producer, host and community engagement director. Soul Watson brings a wealth of experience to every aspect of independent progressive institutions and community engagement initiatives and he's thrilled to be working KPFK to insure a transparent, fair and balance elections for one of the nations most historically progressive independent station.
As Local Election Supervisor, Soul will oversee the candidate nomination process, as well as the implementation of Pacifica's Fair Campaign Provisions.
