  Media Curmudgeon: Saturday, October 2, 2004. Warner
I first met Warner Wolf when he did a sports-talk program in WTOP-AM radio in Washington DC in 1965 or 1966 when I was sales manager of the station.
Warner's sport-talk program was one of the first of its kind in the country and it became instantly popular in Washington (and, by the way, easy to sell).
Warner went from radio to televison in Washington and then to WABC-TV and WCBS-TV in New York, where he became famous for the line, "Let's go to the video tape." Warner was a very good sports anchor and used his two or three minutes of time in a half-hour newscast well.

 Congressman Frank R. Wolf
Wolf, an ardent foe of the spread of casino style gambling, sent a copy of the memorandum to Virginia Governor Mark Warner and asked him to reconsider his support of the legislation unless the bills are amended to forbid casino gambling now and in the future.
Wolf says the same holds true for future governors, especially if the Commonwealth were ever to find itself in dire financial straits.
Wolf stressed that he is not opposed to federal recognition; it's the spread of casino-style gambling he finds so troublesome.
