ABSTRACT
This work is a spin-off from Tarnished Gold. In writing the chapter on music videos, the printed material frequently raised more questions than answers. Consequently, once the previous volume was completed the author’s focus turned to the then neophyte channel. In short time it became overtly apparent that cablecasting was a brand new game. Roger Wise, then of Wood Cable, taught me a great deal about the machinations of the infant industry. He also provided ingress to the then WASEC world. Slowly I was able to penetrate the corporate world of MTV and other cablecasters.
