Does anybody know, was there even an attempt to establish an all-news or
"all-news-and-talk" station in Canada even *before* CFUN made that
attempt to become one? If so, could someone please provide me with the
details?

Do the words "Burns on line go ahead" mean anything to you?? Jimmy Pattison
eventually destroyed CJOR when his religious zealotry got the best of him as it
often does, and he turned it into a christian rock station which was a
predictable failure.
