    SITCOMS AND SUBURBIA: THE ROLE OF NETWORK TELEVISION IN THE DE-URBANIZATION OF THE U.S., 1949-1991 By MICHAEL RAY FITZGERALD A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN MASS COMMUNICATIONS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2007 1 © 2007 Michael Ray Fitzgerald 2 To my wife, Susan, whose support and encouragement made this work possible. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my adviser and chair, Bernell Tripp, for walking me through the minefield, so to speak. I am so grateful that she introduced me to historical methods, because I was beginning to become dissatisfied with the limitations of quantitative research. What is more, she was fun to work with, and her offhand knowledge of television is astounding. I am especially grateful to my other committee members, Johanna Cleary and Julian Williams, for being more concerned with helping me improve my work than simply making me follow the rules. Dr. Cleary encouraged me to clarify my theoretical basis (even though historical studies are generally non theory-driven), and the result may be the most important section of my study. I also wish to thank Lynda Lee Kaid, who taught me the basics of content analysis and made the very valuable suggestion that a time shift be imposed on my data, which turned out to be the equivalent of shining a light on my findings. I would most of all like to thank my wife, Susan Allen, for lending moral and material support while I concentrated on graduate school and my mother, for her television expertise and for teaching me to be skeptical.

  • The Old-Time Radio Era, Sometimes Referred to As the Golden Age of Radio, Was an Era of Radio
    by Mike Prero The old-time radio era, sometimes referred to as the Golden Age of Radio, was an era of radio continued on p.3 programming in the United States during which radio was the dominant electronic home entertainment medium. It began with the birth of commercial radio broadcasting in the early 1920s and lasted until the 1950s, when television superseded radio as the medium of choice for scripted programming. The last few scripted radio dramas and full-service radio stations ended in 1962. During this period radio was the only broadcast medium, and people regularly tuned into their favorite radio programs, and families gathered to listen to the home radio in the evening. According to a 1947 C. E. Hooper survey, 82 out of 100 Americans were found to be radio listeners. A variety of new entertainment formats and genres were created for the new medium, many of which later migrated to television: radio plays, mys- tery serials, soap operas, quiz shows, talent shows, variety hours, situation comedies, play-by-play sports, children's shows, cooking shows. Since this era, radio programming has shifted to a more nar- row format of news, talk, sports and music. The broadcasts of live drama, comedy, music and news that characterize the Golden Age of Radio had a precedent in the Théâtrophone, commercially introduced in Paris in 1890 and available as late as 1932. It allowed subscribers to eavesdrop on live stage performances and hear news reports by means of a network of telephone lines. The development of radio eliminated the wires and subscription charges from this concept.

    MILESTONES IN NETWORK RADIO: SUGGESTIONS FOR A BASIC COLLECTION OF NETWORK RADIO PROGRAMS ThesIs Ior the Degree of M. A. MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY John Edward Carl 196-4 THESIS IINHIWIIUHIWNIIIHIIWI 31293 00686 1334 i LIBRARY Michigan State University 6-» 3:34 1 W15 AUé 2 71999 ABSTRACT MILESTONES IN NETWORK RADIO: SUGGESTIONS FOR A BASIC COLLECTION OF NETWORK RADIO PROGRAMS by John Edward Carl To listen again to the programs of network radio would be enlightening for several reasons: the programs would provide a new view of network history, they would offer a direct study of various examples of sound and dramatic techniques used on radio, they would offer a fresh understanding of radio's popular art, they would reflect something of the life and times of that society which heard the broadcasts, and, most of all, the radio programs would vividly illustrate what the sound of network radio was really like. And in order that people may have the opportunity to hear again the broadcasts of network radio, recordings of these broad- casts should be gathered and held in a sound library. This sound library, then, would be a central location where one could go to check-out certain broadcasts for study. However: before a library can begin to accumulate its docu- ments, an evaluation process should be undertaken to decide which broadcasts were the important contributions to radio's history. It is, then, the purpose of this study to compile a list of significant broadcasts for such a sound library. More specifically, the purpose of this project is to both cate- gorically list the important programs, voices, and events that we re a part of the four major networks, and to give a brief explanation John Edward Carl of why each was important.
