Default The Whore House Years (was: CBS/Infinity and IBOC-AM?)

Well, buried back in Appendix C was an *actual quote* by an FCC
Commissioner back in the 1950s who said "Yeah, we called those the
'Whorehouse years' because everything, including us, was for sale".

Now this from an actual FCC Commissioner back in the days of "Ozzie and
Harriet" and "Leave it to Beaver". If it happened back in those
"innocent" days, do you think it could happen today????


There's zero question it happens. A high position in the FCC is nothing more
than a holding position from which one can trade favors for the right job
offer.
