War, Peace, and Free Radio: The Women's National Radio Committee's Efforts to Promote Democracy, 1939-1946

摘要

This article traces the efforts of the Women's National Radio Committee to promote democracy in a time of war. The organization did so by giving awards to radio programs that best supported democracy and informing women about issues of war and peace, denouncing FCC regulations, proposing news coverage and musical program improvements, and encouraging radio to help curtail the problem of juvenile delinquency.
