Editing Ted Husing (section)

===Move from CBS to WHN===
In 1946, Husing moved from CBS to [[WEPN (AM)#WHN|WHN]] (later WMGM) to pursue a career as a [[disk jockey]]. (He was succeeded as CBS Radio's sports director by [[Red Barber]].) Husing's popular music show the ''[[Ted Husing Bandstand]]'' ran from 1946 to 1954. He continued to busy himself with sports assignments, including boxing on CBS and [[DuMont Television Network|DuMont]] television, one year (1950) as the radio voice of [[New York Giants]] football, and as host of DuMont's ''[[Boxing From Eastern Parkway]]'' from May 1952 to March 1953. Perhaps he was best known as the voice of [[Army Black Knights football|Army football]] from 1947 to 1953. By that time, Husing's yearly salary was close to half a million dollars.

The trade publication ''[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]'' reported that Husing's dismissal from the DuMont boxing broadcasts "set a precedent which is being labelled as a discredit to the industry."<ref name=v>{{cite magazine |date=April 1, 1953 |page=67 |title=Cry 'Foul' Over Husing's Ouster By 'Packager of DuM Boxing Bouts |magazine=Variety |url=https://archive.org/details/variety190-1953-04/page/n66/mode/1up?view=theater |accessdate=April 8, 2024 }}</ref> Husing's departure was initially said to be for economic reasons, but later reports indicated that he was let go because of criticism by people in the boxing business. Husing had been employed by packager Emil Lence — not DuMont — so the decision was beyond the network's control.<ref name=v/>
