When did broadcasting in America start?

Answer 1

Broadcasting in America began in the early 20th century, with the first radio broadcast occurring on December 24, 1906, by Reginald Fessenden. However, regular commercial broadcasting started in the 1920s, with stations like KDKA in Pittsburgh broadcasting the first scheduled radio program in 1920. Television broadcasting followed in the late 1940s, with the first public demonstration of a television system taking place in 1927, leading to the first commercial television broadcasts in the late 1930s.
