Nice revisionism.

They affected Lana Freed and NY. Most of hte nation had no idea who he
was.
Most of the nation had no interest in payola.

The Miami scandal, congressional hearings, Alan Freed, no one noticed.

Very few noticed, as it was not relevant. It did not affect everyday
life,
and was limited in interest.


You really are stupid.

The fact is that a local DJ in New York and his dealings with record
companies is not of much interest to anyone outside the listening audience
of that station.

As to the hearings, how many committee hearings are there that get
essentially no press coverage? The payola hearings were not of much interest
then, any mor ehtan they are today.

With your poor judgement, I wouldn't trust you to cut my grass.

This is not judgment. This is fact. You, on the other hand, did not know
when Top 40 started, that it was not originally a rock 'n' roll format, and
that such stations had very tight regimented rotations and playlists.
