Description
Discover how Fort Worth Amon Carter was The Ultimate Texan. He was a catalyst for growth and influence from Fort Worth to the edge of West Texas, and he was called Mr. West Texas for his incredible influence.
He loved Fort Worth so intensely that, when attending a meeting in Dallas, he brought his own lunch in a sack and a can of Coca-Cola so he would not spend a dime in Dallas!
• Built the first TV station in Texas, KXAS/NBC5
• Built the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and WBAP Radio
• Used his influence to have the loop around Fort Worth named Loop 820 as a subtle way to promote WBAP
