In this interdisciplinary study of the laws and policies associated with commercial radio and television, Thomas Streeter reverses the usual take on broadcasting and markets by showing that government regulation creates rather than intervenes in the market. Analyzing the processes by which commercial media are organized, Streeter asks how it is possible to take the practice of broadcasting—the reproduction of disembodied sounds and pictures for dissemination to vast unseen audiences—and constitute it as something that can be bought, owned, and sold. With an impressive command of broadcast history, as well as critical and cultural studies of the media, Streeter shows that liberal marketplace principles—ideas of individuality, property, public interest, and markets—have come into contradiction with themselves. Commercial broadcasting is dependent on government privileges, and Streeter provides a searching critique of the political choices of corporate liberalism that shape our landscape of cultural property and electronic intangibles.

This volume explores the history of broadcasting in the nineteenth state through the words and memories of those involved in the industry. Drawn from an oral history project that produced more than three thousand pages of oral history interviews transcribed from tape, the book explores such areas as individual stations in Indiana and the people who worked there, the evolution of technology and the regulation of the industry by the government, the ethics of broadcasters, the impact of broadcasting on the public, station philosophy, and the future of the profession.
