The Wikipedia article on KPFA-FM Berkeley, source for the station's own founding facts (Lewis Hill, 1949, first Pacifica station and first listener-supported station in the United States). It lists Alan Watts among former on-air figures but does not itself discuss his programs.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Wikipedia's article on KPFA-FM Berkeley is a continuously revised, community edited tertiary encyclopedia entry with no named author or peer review process, hence the lower tier, though useful for the station's well documented founding by Lewis Hill in 1949 as the first Pacifica station. NotesReliable for the station's own founding date and its listener-supported model; carries no detail on Watts's specific programs, which come from KPFA's own fund-drive episode titles and the Pacifica Radio Archives subject listing instead.
