Review:

"Michele Hilmes has produced an excellent introduction to a most important subject. This is an invaluable work for both scholars and students that places film, radio, and television within the context of the national culture experience." American Historical Review "Hilmes is one of the few historians of broadcasting to move beyond a political economy of the media... Her work should serve as a model for future histories of broadcasting." Journal of Communication "All media historians will find this work a critical addition to their bookshelves." American Journalism "A major addition to media history literature." Journalism History
