Music and radios became a big part of everyone's lives because it was a source of their entertainment, no matter how young or old they were. People would gather and turn on their radios to listen to the music, news, weather reports, advertisements, comedy acts, or even the sports events that were broadcast 24 hours a day.
many broadcasters became famous, such as Floyd Gibbons, who was one of the first news reporters and was able to deliver 217 words per minute

Radio had many influences on the American society in the 1920s. Information and music relayed through the use of a radio provided homes with the ability to gain a new understanding of what was going on in areas where they were not able to freely travel.
When commercial radio began in cities like Detroit, Pittsburgh, and greater Boston in 1920, it changed American daily life. Radio was the first mass medium to take you to an event in real-time, as it was happening. And once the radio craze took off, the new mass medium helped to equalize the social classes-- prior to radio, only the wealthy (and only white people in segregated cities) could afford to attend a concert featuring famous entertainers. But when radio came along, anyone-- rich or poor, black or white-- could have access to performances by some of the biggest names, right in the comfort of one's living room.
People could now hear up-to-the-minute news, sports, and weather, and some stations even offered college courses or talks by experts on a variety of subjects. For people in rural communities, as well as the elderly, radio was a wonderful companion. For the religious and for shut-ins, radio provided church and synagogue services. Radio also helped black entertainers gain new fans in cities where, due to racism, they might not have been allowed to perform in person. And one other impact was political-- previously, candidates campaigned in person and not everyone could get to see them. But now, candidates began using radio to reach larger audiences, and having a pleasant radio voice became an essential part of politics.
Radio made America into a land of listeners, entertaining and educating, angering and delighting, and joining every age and class into a common culture.
