JOURNALISM’S HOUSE IS ON FIRE<\/span><\/b> CBS Evening News anchor Scott Pelley admits a recent rash of mistakes shows journalism’s house is on fire<\/i>. On Friday, May 10, 2013 during a journalism award ceremony, Scott scolds his industry: …in a world in which everyone is a publisher no one is an editor<\/i>. Pelley mentions how several news organizations prematurely reported an arrest in the Boston Marathon bombing case<\/i>. Scott castigates fellow journalists as he urges them to worry less about the “vanity” of being first on a story and more about being right. This has been a bad few months for journalism. We’re getting the big stories wrong over and over again<\/i>. The CBS Evening News anchor’s criticism comes as he receives a Fred Friendly journalism award from Quinnipiac University. <\/span><\/p>\n

TYLER COPS FACE MAN ON TOP OF TV TOWER<\/span><\/b> Around 4:30 Wednesday afternoon, May 8, 2013 a KYTX TV CH19 employee witnesses a man who cops later identify as Claude Allen Lacy close to 50 feet up its TV tower. By the time lawman arrive on the scene, KYTX TV reports that the perpetrator eases down to around 25 feet then he slowly inches back up the ladder. KYTX TV leads with the story on its 6:00 pm news. During the last 20 minutes of the newscast, reporter Field Sutton describes the activity at the tower which stands tall behind the KYTX TV studios. The standoff between county Mounties and the tower climber comes to a screeching halt just before 7:00 pm when he finally caves in and ends his high wire act on the spire. All’s well that ends well in Tyler, TX. <\/span><\/p>\n

JACK PARNELL [ex WHBQ-560 DJ<\/span>] (Memphis, TN) <\/span><\/b>I think we could all write a book about our earliest jobs in radio. Shirley, my wife, has been trying to get me to write a book, mainly about the days after we moved to Memphis, and all the people we met. BTW, She and I will celebrate our 57th anniversary in August. WHBQ was a hot radio station all over the country…people would come in and listen to us just to see what made us so popular. I’m sure you knew that Dewey Phillips, who was on from 9 to midnight, was the first person in the world to play an Elvis (Presley) record “That’s Alright Mama”…July 8, 1954. When he left in 1958, I took his air shift…9p to 1a<\/span><\/i>.<\/p>\n

TONY BRIDGE [2010 Texas Radio Hall of Fame inductee] (Fort Worth-Benbrook, TX) <\/span><\/b>Subject: Bill Moore Obit Moore Obit. When Mike Braun reported the death of Bill Moore, it brought back many memories of a great friend. Bill and two of his crew would visit my three stations (KLUE Longview, KMHT Marshall, and KBCL Shreveport) several times a year. Bill would call and ask me if the station could handle another 25 or 35 thousand dollars that month. Of course we could. They would arrive in their big black Lincoln, quickly hit their phones already installed, and in two days the sales were done, and not a local account touched. It was all their \u201cpocket accounts\u201d from all over the state. Never any bad accounts, always a joy to see Bill and the guys. True hard working professionals working their selected stations state wide. Bill my friend we will certainly miss you; you were one of a kind. And where you are now, I bet Saint Peter can use another 25 or 35 thousand this month. Tony Bridge, Fort Worth<\/span><\/i>.<\/p>\n

Louie Armstrong’s Hello Dolly<\/i> interrupts their streak for one week before Love Me Do<\/i> puts The Beatles back on top for one more week.<\/span><\/p>\n

MIKE BRAUN [ex KWTX-1230 Waco, TX] (Ft. Worth, TX) <\/span><\/b>Subject: KWTX anniversary and Buddy Bostick birthday. Jim, Twenty-eight-year-old M.N. \u201cBuddy\u201d Bostick was the station manager who helped build KWTX radio. “Buddy” Bostick will celebrate his 95th birthday on May 18. Mr. Bostick would later become president and general manager of KWTX Broadcasting Company. In addition to KWTX-TV and KWTX-FM, the ownership group would put KBTX-TV, Bryan-College Station (Channel 3) on the air in 1957, along with the purchase of KXII-TV, Ardmore, Oklahoma (Channel 12). The company acquired KNAL radio, Victoria, Texas, in 1959 and KLFY-TV, Lafayette, Louisiana, in 1965. Best wishes, Mike Braun, KWTX-AM\/FM, 1975-1979<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

DAN MCCURDY [a while back Charlie & Harrigan-KLIF-1190] (Sherman, TX) <\/span><\/b>Subject: Jim Rose Remembers Radio (#1197) May 10, 2013 [Friday] Hey, Jimbo…long time away from the ‘puter…but I’m still a big fan of JRRR! I’ll sure second the sentiment that your inclusion of pertinent lyrics, “George Jones (September 12, 1931 – April 26, 2013) They placed a wreath upon his door. And soon they’ll carry him away. He stopped loving her today \u201cwas a master-stroke, not unexpected for a pro radio-head like yourself. As a woo-hoo rock n’ rollin’ ex-DJ with a deep love for classical music…truthfully, much of traditional C&W is also close to my heart. And none EVER captured the true essence of Country’s penchant for story-telling better than Ol’ Possum. Dang, I just hate it that we lost this lynch-pin to that wonderful genre…a genius of style and vocal acrobatics unmatched in the annals of Country Soul. Honestly, Ole George was my fave Country artist…he always seemed to pick just the perfect song that touched folks the deepest and spun their stories with a nonpareil honesty unmatched by any C&W artist in my recollection. Miss him? Heck yeah…we’ll have to “Hold on…hold on…hold on to each other” for a loooong time before we see the likes of his vocal brilliance again. – Bestooya (and Lacy, too)… Dan McCurdy, Sherman, TX — KLIF, KBOX-Dallas, WMEX-Boston, 2004 Inductee in the Texas Radio Hall of Fame<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

GEORGE ELIOT [Mary Ann Evans] (1819-1880)<\/span><\/b> There is no feeling, perhaps, except the extremes of fear and grief, that does not find relief in music<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n
