Empire of the Air: The Men Who Made Radio plot

This film explains exactly how radio works (with a lot of technical aspects) and tells about the early days of radio broadcasting before there was TV. There were all kinds of radio shows from Burns to Allen, and musical shows. Finally came a new invention, the television that killed the radio and changed it forever. All entertainment moved to the TV.
