Gene Newman
Description
Box 3 Folder 4: "Alright we’re moving on to folder 4 of box 3. It’s just a promo picture of Gene Newman who was a broadcaster and an owner of WEZB, which was 1320. The frequency would "swap" to WENN in exchange for WBCO's 1450. But WEZB was pretty much a white programmed station. It is said that Gene wanted to convert his station to an all women station. Donated by Gene around time of his interview with me for the BBRM in 1997."
