Here’s the answer to your question:
"How can WRC maintain the world’s finest
news-coverage?"
W'Rf h/in/;s von rhe news from no fewer
chart 100,000 skilled reporters! .. .You hear
on-the-<pnt broadcasts from all over rhe
world* . . The nation s finest commentators
and analysts are focused at 980 on your dial!
How is your W ashington station able to offer
you this w ealth of news, on top of all its other
services' The answer comes srraight from rhe
heart of America s system of free radio and
network operation:
W'R(. is one of the H3 stations of the NBC
Network. The National Broadcasting Com
pany owns WRC and five other stations that
arc important oripinating-poinrs tor news.
The other 137 NBC stations are indepen
dently owned Affiliates. Yet ALL of the news
services and other features, made possible bp
the NBC network operation, are available, to
ALL of these stations alike!
The result is that, from a single station —
VC'RC — you get the world s most complete
and authoritative news-coverage!
To keep abreast of the rimes and ahead of
opinion, tune in—and stay tuned tn— to 980
on your dial!
rtO } Of; R iN O IT ... that the National Broad
casting Company devotes 15.4% of its total
Broadcast hours to news and special events? ...
During 1942 alone there were 2,200 individual
nt ertea< broadcasts.
