World Television Day
Every year, World Television Day, November 21st, recognizes how television plays a vital part in presenting various topics that affect people.
In 1927, the first television set was invented. Philo Taylor Farnsworth, a 21-year-old entrepreneur, was the 21-year-old inventor. He wanted to capture moving pictures, convert them into code, and then move the images along radio waves to different platforms. In 1928, a television first broadcast was broadcast in 1928. Television sets weren't available until 1938.
Televisions in the household were uncommon at this time, but televisions in the house were rare. Only about 1 million American households owned a television set in 1949, just 1 million in 1949. And one's was expensive, too. The most expensive set on the market at the time was $1,295. That would be almost $14,000 today in today's dollars.... By 1969, the number of households with television sets had risen to 44 million.. In that period, the number of television stations in that period increased from 69 to 566.
This new age of media was well on its way to influencing the culture. Television stars were born. The first television stars were born. When television shows were invented, television shows were invented. The presidential debates were televised on television. And as John Kennedy was assassinated, Americans tuned in for days to get all the latest updates on the tragedy and the aftermath. Many Americans, rather than the news, turned to their television to escape from reality. Star Trek, the Andy Griffith Exhibition, and Beverly Hillbillies provided a much-needed break from the reality of the Vietnam War.
Today, nearly 96% of all households in the United States have at least one television set. TV isn't limited to an American phenomenon. 1.63 billion people have televisions in their homes around the world. Despite the fact that the number of televisions has risen dramatically, watching hasn't changed much. Many people still watch television as a way to get the news, unwind, or escape reality. Some people, especially children, prefer television to learn.
