Title: The Beginning of Broadcast Regulation in the Twentieth Century
Description: "The Radio Act of August 13, 1912, provided for the licensing of radio operators and transmitting stations for nearly 15 years. From 1921 to 1927, when a second radio act was passed, the legislation underwent continual revision, some of which still underlies broadcast regulation." "Chronicling the six chaotic years that preceded the passage of the 1927 act, this book shows how outdated legislation, coupled with mushrooming growth in the industry, led to a regulatory breakdown that was not resolved until passage of the Radio Act of 1927"--Jacket.
