LIFE BEFORE TELEVISION

Life was simple before television came about. People either worked or talked. Family and friends would gather around and tell stories or talk about daily events. At times they would find entertainment from print media. Once the radio was invented, their source of entertainment also came from that.
Many people relied on radios and newspapers for information. However, this form of communication was not the best solution when one was trying to quickly obtain news. One may have just recently heard about an earthquake in California when it actually happened days before. The difficulty of it all changed once television was invented.
