Completely disregards the first 44 years of CBS Radio

[edit]

After the head of the article says "CBS Radio...founded in 1928," the history section begins with "The company that would become CBS Radio was founded in 1972." Infinity Broadcasting was, but this article is about CBS Radio, one of the pioneers of broadcasting. There is a rich history to be plumbed here, from Jack Benny to Edward R. Murrow and beyond. This really needs an update. David Fell (talk) 13:58, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Limited article, in need of historical perspective

[edit]

This is too skimpy an article, lacking in attention to the classic era, 1920s to 1950s, of radio. Compare this article to ABC Radio Network.Dogru144 01:44, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. I can find adequate histories on NBC, NBC Red, NBC Blue, but there is no history I can find for CBS through the 1920-1972 period. One would think that CBS was founded in 1972, so which network ran Mercury Theater in 1938? Which network stood to compete with NBC and Mutual? A search for CBS or CBS Radio should produce an article with the missing 45 years of history. If it is on Wikipedia, it is poorly linked.GBC (talk) 03:00, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merger suggestion

[edit]

This should be merged with CBS Radio Network.Dogru144 01:47, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Size of Network

[edit]

This article claims that the radio network is third largest in US. The article on Citadel Broadcasting also claim to be third. I believe it should be second based on the CBS Radio Network claim of 1,000 stations. DutchTreat 11:43, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about the company which owns and operates radio stations. The radio network is a separate article. Steelbeard1 (talk) 11:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Cbsradiologo.png

[edit]

Image:Cbsradiologo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
