[edit] Passarella

http://radio.about.com/cs/latestradionews/a/aa012504a.htm "Dateline: 1/25/04 The Philadelphia Enquirer is reporting Philadelphia police and U.S. Marshals have arrested a man who is suspected of posing as a Radio deejay, duping a 17-year-old teenage girl into believing she had won an on-air contest and then luring her to his home. Arrested was William J. Passarella Jr., 23, on various charges including kidnapping, corruption of a minor, indecent assault and others. The events began earlier this week when WIOQ-FM offered Britney Spears tickets on-the-air to the 102nd caller. The teen called the station and police say Passarella intercepted the call using an array of telephonic and electronic equipment, found at his home." Why isn't there more on this and other events that have happened at the station over the years? The whole article reads more like an ad.
