ALL THE NEWS THAT IS NEWS<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

JFK ASSASSINATION IS A SPIRAL<\/span><\/b> In the mid 1950s three Dallas Times Herald paper routes keep this school student mighty busy. However, in the 9th grade Wyatt’s grocery store offers 50c an hour as a sacker\/package out boy. Each year my pay increases: 50c, 75c, 90c and by the time that I’m a senior at the brand new Kimball high school my pay leaps to $1 an hour. Wyatt’s grocery store’s address is in the 2000 block of South Beckley Avenue in Oak Cliff the home of KLIF-1190.\u00a0 In November 1963 the accused assassin of President JFK rents a room for $8 a week at 1026 North Beckley Avenue which is maybe 10 blocks away from that Wyatt’s grocery store. Superior insurance company offer $220 a month as a full time bookkeeper which is located on President JFK’s parade route. <\/span>

\nLHO KILLS A DALLAS COP<\/span><\/b> While he patrols the streets of Oak Cliff, Dallas police officer J.D. Tippitt spots a guy walking on the sidewalk who matches the description of the accused assassin of President JFK. As the officer exits his squad car to question the mysterious man, his suspect whips out a revolver and shoots officer Tippitt to death. Police trace the shooting suspect to the Texas Theater on Jefferson Avenue. Over the years, many times we visit the Texas Theater to watch movies. Cops capture Lee Harvey Oswald inside the Texas Theater. Ironically, officer Tippitt along with his wife and two sons live in a new brick home not too far away from where I grow up. So, even though he is not a true Dallasite JFK’s assassin has tremendous ties to the huge Oak Cliff section of Dallas, TX. <\/span>
\nKATIE IS A YAHOO YO-YO<\/span><\/b> Katie Couric reminds us of a yo-yo that bounces back and forth on a string. The Washington Post reports on Saturday, November 22, 2013: After transitioning from the “Today” show to CBS News, and finally to ABC News, Couric is now planning a major switch to an online Yahoo show<\/i>. According to another report: While Katie is renewable at its current ratings level, the cost of producing it – including Couric\u2019s annual $20 million salary makes renewing it challenging<\/i>. Broadcasting & Cable files this report on Saturday, November 22, 2013: Katie Couric is negotiating her exit from ABC News, where she serves as a special correspondent, and is headed to Yahoo<\/i>. <\/span>
\nLATEST ANDY KAUFMAN STUNT IS HOAX<\/span><\/b> Cult comedy star Andy Kaufman dies at 35 of lung cancer at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, CA on May 16, 1984. Many years ago, Andy’s son Michael describes how he discovers that his dad plans to fake his death in 1984 and reappear on Christmas Eve 1999. Leave it to Andy Kaufman to pull off a life hoax<\/i>, without even trying. On Monday, November 11, 2013 a\u00a0 woman who appears onstage claims to be cult comedy star Andy Kaufman\u2019s daughter. But it proves to be another Koffman hoax. TSG reveals that the woman is a New York City actress whose real father is a Manhattan psychiatrist. Alexandra Tatarsky meets Andy’s son Michael Kaufman at a Manhattan gallery exhibit of Kaufman artifacts from the comedian\u2019s personal life. <\/span>

\nTONY WILLIAMS [WKY-930\/KRLD-1080\/Metro Traffic] (Dallas-Richardson, TX) <\/span><\/b>Subject: TRHOF voting. What if only the board of directors voted on inductees from air checks and\/or resumes submitted by those nominated by the board. People who have never been in radio should not be voting. When I was looking at the TRHOF FB site which I first saw last night one of the inductees was a traffic reporter apparently his entire time in broadcasting. I can say it since I was one part-time, but traffic reporters are the bottom feeders of broadcasting<\/span><\/i>.
