Golden Age of Radio in the US
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

Tuning into the radio is now an integrated part of our everyday lives. We tune in while we drive, while we work, while we cook in our kitchens. Just 100 years ago, it was a novelty to turn on a radio. The radio emerged at the turn of the twentieth century, the result of decades of scientific experimentation with the theory that information could be transmitted over long distances. Radio as a medium reached its peak—the so-called Radio Golden Age—during the Great Depression and World War II. This was a time when the world was rapidly changing, and for the first time Americans experienced those history-making events as they happened. The emergence and popularity of radio shifted not just the way Americans across the country experienced news and entertainment, but also the way they communicated. This exhibition explores the development, rise, and adaptation of the radio, and its impact on American culture.

"Live streaming entertainment is taking the virtual world by storm whether it’s sports gaming or even pets But many live streaming platforms face challenges to stay afloat particularly in China, where live streaming personalities, or “hosts”, earn income through monetary gifts from fans These gifts are shared with both the live streaming platform and host unions—collectives designed to help hosts boost viewer retention Some of the biggest challenges are related to content Platforms must ensure that broadcasts are politically, socially, and ethically appropriate for both hosts and viewers while entertaining enough to capture a big audience Other challenges concern the relationships among hosts, host unions, and platforms Stiff competition for viewership has translated to long work hours for hosts with little dedicated mentorship from unions as well as growing distance between hosts and their supporting platforms Nurturing healthy stakeholder relationships could be the key to s.."
