====Other early media ventures==== Under Atkinson, the ''Star'' launched several other media initiatives, including a weekend supplemental magazine, the ''[[Star Weekly]]'', from 1910 to 1973. From 1922 to 1933, the ''Star'' was also a radio broadcaster on its station [[CFCA (AM)|CFCA]], broadcasting on a [[wavelength]] of 400 [[metre]]s (749.48 kHz); its coverage was complementary to the paper's reporting.<ref name="Plummer2014">{{cite web |url=http://torontoist.com/2014/03/historicist-an-invisible-giant/ |title=Historicist: An Invisible Giant |last1=Plummer |first1=Kevin |date=March 22, 2014 |website=torontoist.com}}</ref> The station was closed following the establishment of the [[Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission]] (CRBC) and the introduction of a government policy that, in essence, restricted private stations to an [[effective radiated power]] of 100 [[watt]]s.<ref name="Plummer2014" /> The ''Star'' would continue to supply sponsored content to the CRBC's CRCT station—which later became CBC station [[CBLA-FM|CBL]]—an arrangement that lasted until 1946.<ref name="Plummer2014" />
