RKO Radio Network
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The RKO Radio Network was the first radio network to begin its operations entirely on satellite in the 1970s. It fed newscasts at :50 and :00, and offered sportscasts, music, and public affairs programming. RKO was very popular from the start, signing up hundreds of affiliates coast to coast. The network was sold after an advertising billing scandal came to light. It was renamed the United Stations Radio Network after being purchased by entertainer Dick Clark and others.
