Business and legal records

 Series — Multiple Containers

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The letters, mostly handwritten by residents of Athens and surrounding communities, largely pertain to the potential cancellation of certain programs and broader changes in the station's format. Much of the business and legal documentation is still housed in the original folders. Many of these folders are marked as monthly reports, but more likely contain material used to write or present monthly reports, not the reports themselves. Multiple folders contain materials pertaining to the station's dispute with MediaOne about the station's inclusion in Atlanta-area markets. Also included are F. C. C. licenses and similar legal documents, a significant number of advertising-buy receipts and similar documentation, and materials pertaining to changes in the station's facilities after Whitehead's purchase. Some of the F. C. C. reports, plus a few other documents, provide scattered documentation of the content of WNGM's local programming.
