Editorials

Booknews

One hundred-plus editorials, 1966-90, lend support to the view of Westchester, NY's WVOX as "America's quintessential community radio station." O'Shaughnessy uses the airwaves as a bully pulpit on NY newsmakers like Mario Cuomo, "the townies," and national issues. Includes b&w photos of relevant personalities and sites. Annotation c.
