Concert Radio, Inc. v. Gaf Corp.
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
Asch, J.
WNCN-FM broadcasts classical music 24 hours a day. In 1974, the then owner of WNCN, Starr Broadcasting Group, Inc. (Starr), finding it not profitable to operate the station under a classical music format, transformed the station to a rock music station under the call letters of WQIV. This resulted in a storm of opposition from WNCN listeners. Several public interest groups were formed to oppose the change. They included the Listeners’ Guild, Inc., and Classical Radio for Connecticut, Inc. (Listeners and CRC, respectively, and Listeners Groups, collectively).
