Those tags were pre-recorded from that point on...
Hopefully, his name wasn't Chuck U. Farley. |

When I worked for KNX in 1968 as a studio engineer, I got the job one day of editing an editorial (remember those) recorded by the GM. The engineer before me had recorded the tape and started the editing, put a flag in it and asked me to complete it. I did so, and then it was given to a young lady who was supposed to listen, time it, etc. She failed to do so.
It turned out that the manager kept flubbing a work while recording, and in frustration had pounded the desk with his fist, and said the "F" word. It went out on 50,000 watt CBS for Los Angeles.
They didn't know which engineer missed the edit, I don't believe it was me, but the girl almost got fired. The saving grace was because of the fist on the table, the "thud" dulled the word on the air.
There must have been a lot of people that said, "wtf?"
