Fair use rationale for File:Bill wendell.jpg[edit]

File:Bill wendell.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Bill Wendell claimed he was fired because he asked for more money, possibly from Robert Morton[edit]

I saw an interview with him on a San Francisco TV station, any corroboration appreciated

1996 March, Letterman fired his executive producer, Robert Morton - The New Yorker

Biography[edit]

====this quote - He was a regular on the 1955-1956 version of The Ernie Kovacs Show, serving as the show's announcer, as well as a participant in sketches such as "Mr. Question Man" (a parody of The Answer Man). He also worked with Jack Benny, Bob Hope and other NBC personalities. - Huge bone of contention from the Kovacs camp. "Mr. Question Man" appeared well before Steve Allen's "Mr. Answer Man", so much so that Kovacs himself took out a full page ad in Variety telling Allen to "get his own material". (Diane Rico biography "Kovacsland" 2002). Zabadu (talk) 22:02, 21 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
