The sound of nitwits (cont'd)
The Chronicle's Dale Lezon checks in on the latest legal activity from the local radio lunatic fringe:
A Houston peace activist and board member of public radio station KPFT-FM (90.1) filed suit this week after the general manager of the station barred him from its Montrose studio.
Ken Freeland alleges that Duane Bradley unfairly prohibited him from coming to the station after Jane Tucker Bradley, no relation, accused Freeland of assaulting her.
Freeland, a member of Houston Coalition for Justice Not War, denied the accusation.
Duane Bradley said he banned Freeland from the station to protect Jane Bradley and other staff members.
Jane Bradley said she feared Freeland after a confrontation with him during a forum for candidates seeking election to the station board in October. She said Freeland "jumped into my face" and yelled at her about the forum's organization.
He didn't hit her, she said, but she filed a complaint against him with the Houston Police Department.
"His baseball cap was bumping into my forehead," she said. "I felt he was a threat to me."
Freeland said he didn't touch Bradley, and said he yelled at her only after she had yelled at him.
It can be entertaining when the peace activists get all riled up (although sometimes it's not very good for Houston radio)!
