Response to Radio Lecture

I found learning about how radio went through its rises and downfall very interesting. Like any other mass medium, it had its peaks and has also plateaued and fell. Whenever I think of the downfall of radio, I think of the song "Video Killed the Radio Star", because my dad always played it when I was a young child. The song sparked stimulus so the whole process has seemed interesting ever since. The timeline that we received in class helped me fully understand the events that sparked what radio is today. The first TVs were sold in 1939 and that is when radio's popularity started its descent. The radio sales started to plateau and this process reflects amongst all of the mass mediums which I find very interesting.
