Tiger Radio WLSC Celebrates 72nd Anniversary of War of the Worlds Broadcast
Loris, SC, October 28, 2008 - On Saturday, October 30th at 6:00 PM, WLSC AM 1240 & TigerRadio.com invite you to dim the lights and turn up your radio or computer speakers. Gather your family and relive one of the most spectacular radio moments during the Twentieth Century. "If you're not careful, your imagination could get the best of you.", says station owner, Banana Jack Murphy. " Tiger Radio is going to rebroadcast one of the most well known radio events on the day it happened. How cool is that?", adds Murphy, a 28 year broadcast veteran. War of the Worlds was first broadcast on October 30, 1938. The radio drama was written and produced by The Mercury Theatre on the Air. Orson Welles and his co-writer Howard Koch are credited with creating a radio drama that scared a nation.
How did Welles and his colleagues rattle an entire country? "Perhaps, it was the style of the program.", says Murphy. The drama starts off as a regular music broadcast. As listeners were tuning in for orchestra music, the radio program was interrupted by late breaking news reports of alien attacks from real name locations. Banana Jack adds, "What these guys did is incredible. You have to remember this was 72 years ago. If I was around back then, it might have fooled me too." Since The Mercury Theatre ran without commercial breaks, the dramatic effect was intensified during the original 60 minute broadcast. The effect was also compounded by many folks who tuned in late. It's estimated that a majority of listeners did just that and thus missed Orson Welles' introduction which explained that what was to follow was merely a dramatization. "Don't tune in late or you might get tricked too.”, says Banana Jack.
Tiger Radio WLSC AM 1240 and TigerRadio.com are proud to present without commercial interruption, the original Mercury Theatre presentation on Saturday, October 30, 2010 starting at 6:00 PM, which happens to be seventy two years to the day that our nation was gripped by fear. Although mass panic is not expected, the masses can tune in around the world and hear this historical rebroadcast at www.tigerradio.com.
The station plans a rebroadcast at Midnight on Saturday and also at 10:00 pm on Sunday, October 31st.
WLSC AM 1240 and TigerRadio.com are owned and operated by Banana Jack Murphy Productions LLC, which was formed in 2007 by broadcast personality Banana Jack and his wife Barb Krumm.
