Abstract
Station WTVJ, Miami, broadcast sixty-five consecutive weekday editorials against Dade County crime in 1966. These editorials, supported by documentary news reports and interviews, reportedly “shook the political foundation of the State of Florida and sent shock waves rocking the underworld that were felt in the crime capitals of the world.“
