The History of Television

Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
About this episode

It has been called the boob tube and the idiot box, but the fact is that perhaps no invention was as important to the latter half of the 20th Century as the television. 


Once the problems of moving pictures and wireless audio had been solved, it took quite a bit longer to solve the problem of wireless moving pictures. 


Once it was solved, it revolutionized the world.


Learn more about the history of television, how it was developed and how it took over the world, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
