Most don't; some do!

Most televisions have no motor; the picture display is controlled entirely electronically. But some earlier rear-projection, large-screen, CRT TVs did use a rotating color wheel, timed with light pulses, to display colors. And the color wheel is used in one of the very newest technologies, the DLP system, in single-chip DLP projectors. These TVs do have an electric motor to spin that color wheel.

You might think that older CRT (tube-type) televisions might use a motor-driven fan for cooling, but they rely only on venting and convection to keep components from overheating.

YES.... Any appliance that you can think of that spins around is generally run by an electric motor. In this case, the radiodoes not have a motor in it. It does, however, have an electromagnet in it.
