During the 1900s radio
was crucial to the daily lives of people in America. People marveled at the
live information radios broadcasted. It was almost like being right there at
the event! The radio lecture was one of the most interesting lectures to me
because of the huge impact it had. During this lecture, I compared our new
technologies to radio and realized it would almost be useless in this
generation. Televisions and internet provide visual aid to back up statements.
Now we can not only listen to a live event, but we can watch it! It’s hard to
imagine watching my favorite shows without seeing them, but it’s very
interesting to think how the older generation would tune into their favorite
stations at a specific time every day! Although radios are decreasing in
popularity and as we advance in technology, radios will always be remembered
for providing America with instantaneous, live coverage in the early 1900s and
for contributing to the ideas of television.
