Ranging across both the commercial and public service broadcasting sectors, it recovers and explores the lived experiences of a wide cross-section of Australian listeners and viewers. Offering new perspectives on how audiences have responded to broadcast content, and how radio and television stations have been part of the lives of Australians, over the past one hundred years, this book invites us into the dynamic world created for children by the radio industry, traces the operations of radio and television clubs across Australia, and uncovers the workings of the Australian Broadcasting Commission's viewers' advisory committees. It also opens up the fan mail received by Australian broadcasting stations and personalities, delves into the complaints ?les of regulators, and teases out the role of participants and studio audiences in popular matchmaking programs. Bridget Griffen-Foley is Professor of Media at Macquarie University, Australia. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in the History of the Media,$x2634-6583 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aHistory 606 $aCulture 606 $aAustralasia 606 $aCultural History 606 $aSocial History 606 $aHistory 606 $aAustralasian Culture 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aAustralasia. 615 14$aCultural History. 615 24$aSocial History. 615 24$aHistory. 615 24$aAustralasian Culture. 676 $a384.5450994 676 $a900 700 $aGriffen-Foley$b Bridget$0932033 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910418324603321 996 $aAustralian radio listeners and television viewers$92096618 997 $aUNINA
