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**
