Reference: radio networks

I drew from a whitelist-blocked site (helium.com) for information that I used when writing the section on radio networks and their years of development. I am mentioning it because without doing so, I would be committing plaigiarism: Delmer Padgett, "Popular networks of the golden age of radio" May 12, 2010 Dogru144 (talk) 19:05, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Change name of article?

I suggest moving the article to Golden Age of Radio unless a better name can be suggested. The current name, Old-time radio, while used by hobbyists, will be ambiguous to general readers. What radio programming is considered "old-time"? they will wonder. Classic rock? Rhythm and blues? In contrast, Golden Age of Radio more specifically references the actual definition: The period when radio was the dominant mass entertainment medium. --ChetvornoTALK 16:37, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

  • I concur, I've never liked the title, and agree its mostly used by hobbyists who collect and trade old recordings. Mmyers1976 (talk) 19:47, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
