Abstract:
Created by Congress to protect our interests at the beginning of radio, the National Broadcasting Company developed two networks, Red and Blue, encompassing the US continent. Arturo Toscanini conducted his NBC Symphony Orchestra in one of the first floating rooms, 8-H (now SNL). RCA introduced television at the 1939 NY World’s Fair adding to NBC’s radio coverage.
