Golden Silence

Like any other commercial station, Louisville's 1,000-watt WKYW has always made all the noise its advertisers would buy. Last week, an advertiser showed that he considered the station's silence worth paying for.

Good night--and good rest." Price of the smart spot announcement: just $6 a night.
