760 WJR: 100 Years of Radio and One Webpage of Shame

So I was checking out the "third quarter century" page that looks at 1972-1997. A significant portion of that page, as were a significant portion of those years, is dedicated to the career and death of legendary morning drive host... Jason Priestly McCarthy? Joseph Priestly McCarthy's Irish eyes are...
