Celebrity station owners

[Gavin Burt <gbbradio@yahoo.com>]

Just the other day I was thinking about Jack Paar, and it came to mind
that the History Of Broadcasting In Maine mentioned he owned WMTW-FM
and TV (the FM is now WHOM) from Mt. Washington, N.H.  They say he
owned it during the 1960's.  This inspired me to make a list of
celebrities who owned, or do own, radio stations.  I started a list
down below, and if others would like to add to it or make corrections,
that would be nice.  Asterisks indicate past owners.

Pat Sajak:  WNAV, Annapolis, Md.
*"Buffalo" Bob Smith (of Howdy Doody):  WMKR (now WSYY), WHOU, and
WQDY, all in Maine.
*Charles Kuralt, WELY, Ely, Mn.
Susan Saint James (of Kate and Allie):  WZBG, Litchfield, Me.
Stevie Wonder, KJLH, Compton/Los Angeles, Ca.
Stephen King, WZON/WKIT, Bangor, Me.

These are all the ones I can think of right now.
