  • Hall, Dana (August 16, 2002). "Fights Disrupt KKBT's Summer Jam". Airplay Monitors. SELMA BLAZE SUSPICIOUS Community-based black N/T WBFZ Selma, Ala., was knocked off the air after a fire at its transmitter site. State senator Hank Sanders, who owns the station with wife Faya Toure and senior law partner J.L. Chestnut under the name Imani Communications, told the Selma Herald Tribune he believes arson to be the cause and that it was set by critics who wanted to silence the station during the election season. Charles Jones, president of Imani and chief engineer, told the Tribune that "the door to the building which houses the transmitter was forced open, and flammable liquid was poured onto the equipment and set on fire." The Dallas County sheriff's department is still investigating the blaze.
