Description:
Founded in 1937 by Jack Alicoate, who also published the New York-based FILM DAILY. Alicoate essentially took the same model he had used for film and applied it to the growing medium of broadcasting: publish a daily trade paper with headlines and short news stories and then an end-of-the-year annual with industry data and loads of advertisements. Today, v=broadcasting historians will find a great deal of policy, industry, station, and programming information inside RADIO DAILY and the RADIO ANNUAL. -- Eric Hoyt, 2015

Mr. Jamison stands out in the crowd... In a crowded reception room, in a crowded office, even in a crowded elevator. . .our man Jamison is a standout. He looks like a young fellow on the way up... with something on his mind. When he talks, people listen. The reason is obvious. Air. Jamison always knows what he's talking about .. .always delivers. For example: Last summer he promised a big advertiser a certain set of availabilities at a certain time. They were hard to get, but Mr. Jamison guaranteed the timing of an important test campaign by producing them on schedule. Last spring he told a station manager there was no reason why that station's billing could not be increased 15% before the end of the year. Here it is only October; and the figure has already been passed. The reputation of Weed and Company is no accident. It's reliable, constructive, creative service, like this, that built it. And it's men like Mr. Jamison who are helping us do more business for all of our clients than ever before.
