RE: Fenway Park (Was: Clear Channel vs Office Of The Mayor)



The WJAR-TV and then co-owned WJAR-AM (now WHJJ) studios were located at
"Broadcast House" at 111 Dorrance Street in Providence.  Anytime the
address was given out on the TV side, Broadcast House was included.  The
building is now a Johnson & Wales library since the TV station relocated
to Cranston in the mid 90's.

Other stations may have called it that off the air, but WMEX is the only
American station I've 
ever heard use the term on the air.
