The claim about the radio station being ...Fun post! The claim about the radio station being involved with a national tournament could have simply a DJ there just spouting off. Radio stations had quite a reputation for making stuff up for promotional reasons (even as recently as the late 80s when I worked in the industry). DJs would describe things going on "live in the studio" that weren't happening, or pretend to be broadcasting remotely when they weren't. One of my program directors would claim that some of the songs we were playing (on a hole-in-the-wall AM station) were coming off of Compact Disc(TM) which none of the stations in our market had yet ;-). That may explain why the "press" had the news but no one else did. It would have been more difficult to verify wild statements in the pre-Internet age (and looking at how many hoax e-mails get forwarded today, even the Internet doesn't help much). Just my .02 from my short-lived radio days.Allen Huffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785680934278190478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167179463808604240.post-63622500575922584812016-03-09T03:11:21.087-06:002016-03-09T03:11:21.087-06:00Thanks for sharing this helpful article about espo...Thanks for sharing this helpful article about esports,.<br /><a href="http://mobileesportsleague.com" rel="nofollow">esports tournaments</a>Genniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14777711432599849366noreply@blogger.com
