The 1950s, when advertising tightened it's grip on TV shows

from Are We On The Air?© · host Shawn Wilsie

Take a stroll back to the 1950s when TV shows got ratings in the 60s, and the show sponsor could get what he wanted.  There are many valuable lessons which one needs to know when selling on television today, that are learned in this episode.  Plus, a very esoteric and highbrow look at a problem people had in the 1950s, and have today, and how the marketing around this "issue" hasn't changed.  Attention Peabody award committee, this show is for you!
