Download or read book Ruby in the Rough written by Robert H. Ruby and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 1976 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the bold, brash, outspokenly frank autobiography of one of the leading program innovators in the radio broadcast industry. Bob Ruby, known simply as Ruby to his vast listening audience, displays in this volume the wit, charm, and audacity that led to his rise to a position as the number one morning personality in the New Orleans radio market. The veteran broadcaster for radio station WWL writes candidly of the many zany and often extraordinary happenings that became a trademark of his daily show. His broadcast of a taped interview with Sandra Good, for example, in which the acknowledged member of the Charles Manson family threatened the lives of numerous American business executives, made headlines throughout the nation and led to his appearance as a witness at her trial. Ruby discusses the evolution of his own singular style as a one-man variety show. Clearly, he provides the unusual-something out of the ordinary. His lively monologue each morning was designed to generate call-ins and to encourage listener participation in the show. His consistently high ratings attested to his success. Ruby concludes this work on a serious note, offering his personal assessment of the broadcast industry-its strengths, its weaknesses, and its growing problems, including the controversial area of government regulation. With insight sharpened by experience, he declares that radio is enjoying its last glory days and provides a personal view of what the future of broadcasting holds.

She is now 20 and running for her life all alone, after three years of horrific events, including the psychotic murder of her boyfriend Eric. Ruby has covertly secured the personal secret papers of deceased MI6 agent Roger Davis who died protecting her. Davis also hid some more information in Australia, that was so sensitive, he could tell no one. MI6, the CIA and a third party of terrorists run by Sergei Mudarov, know about the information but not its location. Ruby is in a dangerous position, as many believe that she is better off dead, rather than reveal the contents of the 'Davis Papers'. However, anyone finding and using the information would be capable of wielding its power to blackmail the world's superpowers, by threatening to detonate nuclear 'dirty bombs' in major cities. This story takes you on an adventurous cat and mouse game to find Ruby - as she tries to find her way through her problems and re-assess her relationship with the British Secret Service. They send their top agent, Tian 'The Taipan' after her amid rogue agents in the CIA, while Mudarov plans to rule the world using his cruel hit-woman, Matylda.
