Who was the first president to have the opportunity to use radio as a means of communicating with the public?

To the best of my knowledge - yes. This action kept the American people involved and hopeful throughout the depression. Actually, it was Franklin Roosevelt (FDR), not Theodore, who was president during the depression. He was the originator of "fireside chats" where he spoke to the nation regularly about the state of the country. He also read them the funny papers. On December 6, 1923, President Coolidge was the first president to have his inauguration heard on the radio and the first president to make a radio broadcast. The first presidential political speech on the radio originated from New York City and was broadcast on 5 radio stations. An audience estimated to be about 5 million people listened in to hear Coolidge speak. In Life and Time of Warren G. Harding: Our After-War President, historian Joe Mitchell Chapple provides a transcript of a Coolidge White House radio address from December 10, 1923. In this speech, which was broadcast nationally from the White House study, Coolidge eulogized his predecessor, Warren G. Harding, who had died the previous August. rosevelt was a not so good brodcasrter
