In 1968, WHB Radio in Kansas City was one of America's leading top 40 radio stations. In the early 2000s, I came in contact with Bud Carter, who had been WHB's News Director in the late 1960s. He gave me a tape recording that he had made while working at the station consisting of a radio station composite of the station's news coverage of the 1968 Kansas City riots following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The composite was made for the station's sales department so they could demonstrate to potential advertising clients the quality of WHB's news coverage of breaking stories that the WHB News department was known for at the time. I have simply taken that composite, wrapped some old WHB jingles around it and added pictures I found through the Kansas City Public Library's awesome website. It is with the utmost humility and respect that I offer this video as a way of preserving this important historical record, and as a small gift from me to the world in commemoration of Black History Month, 2016. I hope you enjoy.
