How did the 1920s media impact America?
Radios were an important change to America in the 1920s. 40% of Americans owned one. They were the most popular form of family entertainment. As they were mass produced they were therefore cheap so everyone could afford them. Even people who couldn't afford them bought them on hire purchase (monthly installments). People who couldn't read newspapers could then listen to the news, and this politicized many people. Jazz was also played on radios so more people grew an interest in jazz. Also sport was commentated on the radio which led to sporting heroes such as Babe Ruth. Advertisers saw their opputunity to advertise their products as they knew most Americans owned a radio. Cinemas were the most popular form of entertainment in the 1920s. People went for the novelty of it and for escapism. Tickets were cheap and due to the roaring twenties, it meant people were easily able to go. Also due to the motor car people were more able to go and there was a cinema in every town. People went for the star appeal and such stars as Clara Bow and Rudolf Valentino were seen as sex symbols. People followed the celebs fashion and lifestyles.
