Adviser Department of Speech PREFACE Although commercial radio in this country was horn and managed to gather up a full head of develop­ mental steam in the 1920's, the mass radio medium did not reach full maturity until two decades later when American involvement in World War II pressured radio to achieve its "finest hour." Once limited to to situation comedies and soap operas, network radio offered the human drama of death, devestation, and despair to a nation at war in the 194-0's. Radio became a companion; a constant source of information and inspiration against which the print medium could not compete. This study presents a detailed investigation of . network radio's activities during the Second World War. The networks were each composed of a main sta­ tion in New York City and a varying number of local or affiliated stations around the country. As a limit­ ing factor, the contributions of such local stations, apart from their role as network disseminators, will not be discussed. During the war, the networks were primarily concerned with government support/cooperation, ii news/information and regular/supplemental entertain­ ment roles. More simply, radio served as a domestic supporter, informer, and entertainer during the period of foreign hostilities. These activities combined to form a potent social force found to be beneficial to the maintenance of an appropriate level of public morale. As a by-product of this intense and effective attention to public service and morale boosting, net­ work broadcasting earned the right to continued opera­ tion free from the threat of federal control. Through­ out the war itself, the networks had voluntarily functioned within a cooperative regulatory system perhaps best defined as responsible freedom. The success of this experiment and the specifics involved with each of the wartime radio roles will be discussed in this study. While previous research has been done on radio and radio commentators during the Second World War, the vast majority of such was either written while the war was still in progress or written on only one aspect of the subject. The intent of this dissertation was to take a broader look at network broadcasting's wartime domestic participation in an effort to con­ tribute an over-view analysis of the era and, in so doing, help strengthen an area of broadcasting history still in need of research. iii I would like to acknowledge the valuable guidance and assistance provided by my adviser, Dr. Walter B. Emery, during the course of this study. Additional thanks go to Dr. Richard M. Mall and Dr. Robert W. Wagner for their time and probing questions, and also to Dr. James E. Lynch for his supervision of my doctoral course work and his help in obtaining the financial assistance necessary for the completion of this research. Finally, my deepest expression of gratitude must go to my parents, Dr. and Mrs. John A. Cathcart, whose continued concern and subtle encourage ment have played such a vital role in making this dream a reality.

Kesten1 In 1926, RCA created a subsidiary, the National Broadcasting Company, to operate the nation's first transcontinental radio network. In that same year, Adolph Hitler published the second volume of Mein Kampf and pushed his National Socialist movement closer to Berlin. Twelve years later the two forces would meet as network coverage of the world conflict got under way in the Fuhrer's old stomping ground, Munich. Briefly outlining first the principal events of the Second World War, Hitler, after having previously over­ thrown Austria, occupied the Sudetenland of Czechoslo­ vakia in October of 1938, following the agreement at Munich. In March, 1939 > the Republic of Czechoslovakia was formally dissolved. After six more months of rela­ tive external inactivity, Germany invaded Poland, signal ing the start of war on September 1, 1939- Two days later, Prance and Great Britain, among others, declared war on Germany. Once again, a period of calm followed 2 the German aggression. This lasted until April 9» 1940, when Hitler's forces invaded Norway and Denmark to finally begin the war in earnest. France collapsed and signed an armistice in late June. The Battle of Britain followed, with German bombing reaching its peak in the fall of 1940. Germany turned on its former ally when it attacked Russia in mid-1941. As European con­ ditions worsened, President Roosevelt declared a state of unlimited national emergency on May 27, 1941, as our own involvement date drew near. The Japanese attack on December 7 brought the United States into the war on both fronts. The Allied forces finally began to turn the tide, starting with the successful North African expedition in November, 1942. The year 1943 brought defeat to the Germans at Stalingrad and surrender to the Italians. D-Day, the long awaited Allied counter-invasion of Normandy, came on June 6, 1944. During the following spring, the Rhine River was crossed from the west and soon after Victory in Europe was declared on May 7» 1945. Our war in the Pacific continued until the formal Japanese surrender ceremonies aboard the U.S.S. Missouri on September 2, 1945 marked V-J Day. The peak strength of the U.S. Armed Forces had reached 12.3 million per­ sons during the war, second only to the Soviet Union's 3 12.5 million. The United States' battle deaths totalled 292,000, as compared with 53*000 in World War I and 53*000 in Korea, with Viet Nam figures yet incomplete. The Soviet Union reported 7.5 million battle deaths, a statistic that certainly puts our losses into perspective. A look next at the pre-war status of radio. American broadcasting had grown rather dramatically since its beginnings in 1920. As the war approached, four national networks stood ready to cover the events. Since 1926, the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) had maintained two networks, the Red and the Blue. The Blue Network was separated from NBC in 194-2, following a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruling, and became the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) in 194-5. The Columbia Broadcasting System's (CBS) network of stations came into being in 1927 and the newest network, the Mutual Broadcasting System (MBS), began operations in 1934-. So much for the major program transmitters. On the listening side of things, the United States could boast of having more radio receivers tuned to more stations airing more programs than any .other nation in the world. In 194-0, twenty-eight million families owned radios (85% of the total U.S. families) and over 83% of those families listened on a daily average of 5*1 2 hours. The nearly eight-hundred U.S. standard broad- 4 cast (AM) stations had a potential radio audience of over seventy million people.

  • The News Media Industry Defined
    Spring 2006 Industry Study Final Report News Media Industry The Industrial College of the Armed Forces National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington, D.C. 20319-5062 i NEWS MEDIA 2006 ABSTRACT: The American news media industry is characterized by two competing dynamics – traditional journalistic values and market demands for profit. Most within the industry consider themselves to be journalists first. In that capacity, they fulfill two key roles: providing information that helps the public act as informed citizens, and serving as a watchdog that provides an important check on the power of the American government. At the same time, the news media is an extremely costly, market-driven, and profit-oriented industry. These sometimes conflicting interests compel the industry to weigh the public interest against what will sell. Moreover, several fast-paced trends have emerged within the industry in recent years, driven largely by changes in technology, demographics, and industry economics. They include: consolidation of news organizations, government deregulation, the emergence of new types of media, blurring of the distinction between news and entertainment, decline in international coverage, declining circulation and viewership for some of the oldest media institutions, and increased skepticism of the credibility of “mainstream media.” Looking ahead, technology will enable consumers to tailor their news and access it at their convenience – perhaps at the cost of reading the dull but important stories that make an informed citizenry. Changes in viewer preferences – combined with financial pressures and fast paced technological changes– are forcing the mainstream media to re-look their long-held business strategies. These changes will continue to impact the media’s approach to the news and the profitability of the news industry.

Murrow prominence during World War II with a series of live radio broadcasts from Europe for the news division of CBS. During the war he recruited and worked closely with a team of war correspondents who came to be known as the Murrow Boys. A pioneer of radio and television news broadcasting, Murrow produced a series of reports on his television program See It Now which helped lead to the censure of Senator Joseph McCarthy. Fellow journalists Eric Sevareid, Ed Bliss, Bill Downs, Dan Rather, and Alexander Kendrick consider Murrow one of journalism's greatest figures, noting his honesty and integrity in delivering the news.

Date: December 2018 Copyright © 2018 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract The majority of academic and popular studies on the South African participation in the Second World War historically focus on the military operations of the Union Defence Force in East Africa, North Africa, Madagascar and Italy. Recently, there has been a renewed drive to study the South African participation from a more general war and society approach. The South African home front during the war, and in particular the Axis and Allied maritime war waged off the southern African coast, has, however, received scant historical attention from professional and amateur historians alike. The historical interrelated aspects of maritime insecurity evident in southern Africa during the war are largely cast aside by contemporary academics engaging with issues of maritime strategy and insecurity in southern Africa.
