The Cultural Impact of Television | Georgia Stories

Television changed the way Americans entertained themselves. Baby boom generation members Steve Oliver and Sarah Fountain and University of Georgia’s College of Journalism professor Dr. Allison Alexander describe life before television when they played outside, read books, listened to the radio, or played board games. Rep. John Lewis of Atlanta contends that without television, the Civil Rights Movement would have been like a bird without wings. Barry Sherman, in the University of Georgia’s College of Journalism, notes that television made the Vietnam War more personal.
Original Air Date: 03/26/1995

    Everything was going great until about 4:40 when it just gets to about as creepy as imaginable. Why would you say those things on camera?
