Tuning in the Television Directories

Abstract

Television in General The viewing of television has changed, and is continuing to change our lives. When television first arrived on the scene less than 50 years ago, few people could have foreseen the drastic effects that it would have on the public during their waking hours. As of September 1, 1981, 158.3 million television sets have penetrated 98 percent of American households and hardly anyone can legitimately claim never to have seen a TV set or viewed a TV program.
