    I loved reading Victor’s radio columns, back when I first lived in Seattle in the early 1980s.

    Seattle Times radio columns date way back to the 1920s. The Times maintained coverage of radio programming and personalities by columnists C.J. Skreen, Marty Loken, Victor Stredicke, Chuck Taylor… who am I forgetting?
    Other markets like Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York undoubtedly had similar columns featured in their newspaper. The Seattle Times sold a lot of Sunday papers because of the Victor Stredicke column. The lion’s share of readers were the radio personalities, management, and consultants.
