SOME ROCK AND ROLL RADIO HISTORY

World of faces Alan Freed - American DJ - World of faces

WABC radio fired DJ Alan Freed on November 21, 1959 after
he refused to sign a FCC statement
denying that he had
accepted money for promoting records, a practice known
as "payola."

While WABC cited its "contractual right to terminate," the
dismissal happened amid a larger payola scandal that
ultimately ruined his career.
