History

Ohio State first sought an educational license in 1950, for channel 12. However, the FCC turned down two requests for that allocation (most likely due to concerns about interference with WKRC-TV in Cincinnati) instead giving OSU channel 34. WOSU-TV first broadcast on February 20, 1956. In 1959, a grant from the Ford Foundation allowed the station to purchase the first video tape recorder in Ohio. WOSU-TV began broadcasting in color in 1968, telecasting the football game between Ohio State and Michigan. The color telecast helped to popularize the UHF band in Columbus, an otherwise all-VHF market at the time.

Somebody tells you to go away, some people think that the world is not my place Unwittingly they bored me again, like a commercial break before the movie ends Somebody stops me from being me. Somebody says my career is over Of course it is, said somebody else, but it ain’t over till it’s over, I say Cause I will get to you, to you too, I will get to you, to you too. Somebody tells you to be yourself, somebody can’t recognize my voice, They say, they know me better than I’ll ever will and of course they bore me Someone experiments with my nerves, the other thinks my career is over Of course it is, says somebody else If I ever Get to you, to you too, I’ll not forget you. And what I want to say to you is, don’t be so blue, Be so very you, not only Jesus loves you, I guess I can love you, too What’s bringing me down, these million voices, before I get to you / What’s bringing me down, familiar voices
