Description
"Big Voices of the Air: The Battle over Clear Channel Radio is the first book to explore the debate over clear channel stations' attempts to maintain and enhance their dominant position in the broadcast band. The debate, which began in 1928 and ended in the mid-1960s, was important to the development of broadcasting in the United States, and the interest groups that formed to represent various factions of the radio industry became models for later communications interest groups.". "Big Voices of the Air fills a huge gap in our understanding of broadcast history and should be read by anyone who is interested in radio history and policy. It will be studied in electronic media, broadcast regulation, and communication law and policy courses."--BOOK JACKET.
First Sentence
As AM radio embarked upon its so-called Golden Age in the early 1930s, the industry's structure had been in many ways dictated-or at least endorsed-by government regulation.
