Radio

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(I chose this article because radio and broadcasting have been a recurring theme in my field of studies, therefor learning more about these topics are in my best interest. I understood the radio to be a dying means of communication although after reading this article, I can only assume communication through the form of radio frequency is not going away anytime soon. This article made it clear that the radio wasn't only useful for mass media consumption, but also for less populated channels of communication. (e.g) Two people communicating via walkie-talkie or wireless morse code.
