National Anthem at noon time

[David Tomm]

It actually was a trend during the months following the 9/11 attacks.  
Mostly country outlets played it along with some AC's and rockers, 
particularly in the South but it happened at stations all over the 
country.  Over time most stations dropped the practice but some of them 
still do it, including WKLB.  WBLI/Long Island, a CHR station, still 
plays the anthem daily at noon.  They usually rotate between the Mariah 
Carey, Whitney Houston and Beyonce Knowles versions.
