DJs' pay scales ('60s-'70s)

[Sid Schweiger]

>>I remember reading that when Bob Dayton was fired from WABC (when I
was in
junior high), he was pulling in $40,000 a year.  I assume that would
have
been VERY much out of the ordinary.<<

Dayton was fired in 1965, and in the mid-1970's when I was working for
ABC, union scale for the WABC jocks was $56,000, so $40,000 ten years
earlier is not necessarily out of line.
