Special Reports on American Broadcasting, 1932-1947 (Telecommunications)

This significant anthology contains four important documents which offer the reader an unusual overview of the radio broadcasting industry during its heyday. First, there is a letter from the FRC Chairman to the Senate answering questions on commercial and educational AM broadcasting. The second document contains a detailed analysis of broadcasting in the mid-1930s just before the inception of FM and television competition. The next offering is the report of a two-year investigation of the role, history and operations of CBS, NBC and Mutual up to 1940. The final section contains a detailed analysis of changes in American broadcasting in the post-war years of expansion when radio had to meet the challenge of FM and television. Because of the official nature of the documents in this anthology which contains a wealth of statistical data, Special Reports on American Broadcasting, 1932-1947 constitutes a vital addition to any library.Sterling, Christopher H. is the author of 'Special Reports on American Broadcasting, 1932-1947 (Telecommunications)' with ISBN 9780405060595 and ISBN 0405060599.
