The major radio networks were:

  1. National Broadcasting Company (NBC), Red Network a development by the Radio Corporation of America (RCA), 1926
  2. NBC Blue Network, launched 1927, divested under antitrust law and became the American Broadcasting Company in 1945
  3. Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS), 1927
  4. Mutual Broadcasting System, 1934. Mutual was run as a cooperative in which the flagship stations owned the network, not the other way around as was the case with the Big Three.

Of these four radio networks: NBC, ABC, and CBS became TV networks but Mutual ceased to exist.

Other TV networks of today (e.g. PBS) came much later and have no connection to the 1930s radio networks.

In the 1930s and 40s, what was a popular way for Ameircans to consume news?

In the 1930s and 40s, a popular way for Americans to consume news was through radio broadcasts. As radio became widely accessible, it provided real-time news updates and became a primary source of information, especially during significant events like World War II. Newspapers remained important, but the immediacy of radio allowed for a more dynamic engagement with current events. Additionally, newsreels in cinemas helped to visually inform the public about national and international affairs.

What channels of tv did you have in the 1930s?

In the 1930s, television was still in its infancy, and very few households had access to it. The major channels we think of today did not exist; instead, broadcasts were limited and experimental. In the U.S., early television programming was primarily produced by local stations, with some significant broadcasts by networks like NBC and CBS beginning in the late 1930s. Most entertainment during this time was still consumed through radio, films, and live theater.
