WYHY Y-107 Nashville gets featured on 48 Hours | 1989

Sometime in the late 1980’s, the evening news program ‘48 Hours’ did a segment on top 40 radio. Or, should I say, outrageous radio. Y-107 was so outrageous, it was prominently featured as a classic example of ’sinful’ lifestyle (yes, Jerry Falwell was shown preaching against it.).

This is priceless, if only to showcase just how big Nashville’s Y-107 was. If only they hadn’t blown it up - and a great many fans would agree with me.

    Great stuff. I miss Y107-The Outrageous FM! It should have never changed to The River. It seems strange to have a CHR nowadays called The River.
    However, that 48 Hours clip was from 1992, not 1989. There was a reference to the Pee Wee Herman incident and the song “I Touch Myself”, which both occurred in 1991. Thanks for posting that!
