collections that claim to contain more episodes. Many of these shows

"fluff" to our collections to increase our claimed episode count
like many others.

WWII
Radio News Broadcasts:
The entertainment industry during World War
II underwent changes to help aid the cause of the war. The
entertainment industry during this time was often controlled by
a country's government. Since the governments believed that a
supportive home front was crucial to their countries' victory,
they generally sought to keep the civilian spirits high and to
depict the war in a positive light. With this motive in mind,
governments engaged in the regulation and censorship of the
forms of media, as well as the introduction of new methods of
informing citizens through these media outlets.
Government censorship of mass media was enforced in much of the
world during this time period in fear of threatening the
domestic harmony of a nation. Some of the most popular forms of
entertainment during World War II were radio, film, and music.
In conjunction with one another, these forms of media kept
citizens entertained with a pastime, informed about their
country's war efforts, and motivated to contribute to the cause
of the war. The radio was a great way to reach out to citizens
and communicate with the community.
In comparison to television, radio was a much more affordable
form of entertainment. Because of this, the radio was the most
popular form of entertainment during World War II. Radio
stations fueled propaganda and reached a countless number of
citizens. Many shows popularized and quickly gained influence in
certain countries. Radio broadcasts, like other forms of
entertainment at the time, were regulated by the government and
were pushed to keep citizens informed about war efforts and to
encourage citizens to help the cause. Radio stations, along with
other media outlets, were major fuels of propaganda during World
War II. The following shows are included in this package:
