哈丁总统在白宫安装无线电：1922年2月8日
回到1920年代，那是收音机的「黄金年代」。广播不再是一份生意或工作，广播被视为一种非常迷人的专业。进行无线电广播是相当正式的一件事，虽然没有现场观众，但是播报员在工作时都必须要盛装打扮，穿着燕尾服，甚至是长礼服。许多本地的电台都配置自己的交响乐团，有些电台甚至还有自己的剧团。每一个电台都有自己专属的收听群众，每星期都会固定收听喜欢的节目。无线电广播在那时候达到高峰，而对当时的影响就像现在电视或网络所造成的影响一样深远。
Back in the 1920s, radio was in what is now called its "golden age." Broadcasting was more than a business or a job--it was considered to be a very glamorous profession. Radio was a formal affair; announcers dressed up for work in tuxedos and evening gowns, even if there was no studio audience. Many local stations had a staff orchestra, and some had their own dramatic groups. Each station had its own group of fans who tuned in each week to listen to their favorite programs. Radio was at its peak then, and its influence is much like that of TV or the Internet today.
