"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
