INTRODUCTION
In life mankind has used many forms of technology for the greater good of society or for commercial uses. One form of technology that is used for commercial uses is, broadcasting which is the viewing of video and/or audio through different devices. Broadcasting is a device that is used by society very often and I plan to present and explain that broadcasting this paper. I I will show the history, the uses, the security, and the social and ethical aspects of Broadcasting in this entire paper, along with Broadcasting’s future uses. To start I will give a brief history about Broadcasting and how it grew in popularity over time.
Broadcasting started close to the 1920 and has proven to be useful in many ways. Broadcasting stared with a shortwave signal of the first portable shortwave receiver in the early 1920’s. It was used by Frank Conrad of Westinghouse when he was traveling to Europe. He only used the shortwave receiver to listen to the baseball score in the U.S. while he was away (Anderson, 2004, pg. 1). This was the first time a broadcasting device was used, for commercial use of entertainment and knowledge for different sport events. Thus, began the commercial use of broadcasting audio, the first form of broadcasting. This was the start of a new revolutionary form of communication. Shortwave has been identified as the most cost effective medium through which a country can send messages to the largest possible audience over great distances, making it one of the most significant media of international communication” (Anderson, 2004, pg.1). In a short period of time shortwave broadcasting became very popular, it was the best way to send messages over to different countries and it was well notice by the other countries as well. The device that was used to hear the shortwaves broadcasting was the radio. With everything going well with shortwave broadcasting the technology was only going to improve to point that no one would expect. After the broadcasting of audio was being used all over the world, seven years a new form of broadcasting had been created it was called video broadcasting. “Electronic television was first successfully demonstrated in San Francisco on Sept. 7, 1927. The system was designed by Philo Taylor Farnsworth, … Farnsworth had begun to conceive of a system that could capture moving images in a form that could be coded onto radio waves and then transformed back into a picture on a screen” (Stephen, 2000). Philo Tayler Farnsworth created the first television aka TV by use the method of radio waves that could create motion pictures onto a TV screen. Television was not able to produce sound in the 1920’s even so, it became popular for commercial use more than the radio. This is how broadcasting started in our society, with the radio and television and broadcasting is still being used today.
