Although this mostly happened 70 years ago, any aspiring journalists should make a study of this man. His reporting always upheld the highest principles of this honourable profession.

There are definitely some lengthy airchecks available for download on the Internet Archive, most of them beginning in the later 1960s, but some a little earlier, most of them being things like Top 40 radio programs. Unfortunately, I can't upload them to CZcams because all the songs will probably be picked up by the copyright filter and the video will almost certainly get blocked. But there's a whole collection of old airchecks on the Internet Archive. Here's the link for that: archive.org/details/airchecks
That all ended in the 80s. Ronald Reagan did not renew the Fairness Doctrine that required and regulated the news outlets to cover both sides on all issues. It also prevented media compression in which TV, radio, print, etc., could not be all owned by one or a few owners in a geographic region. That is why these vintage pre-90s broadcasts sound so different in tone and even visually. No bells, no whistles, no constant "breaking news" to keep people on edge and hooked into the station. Just the news, and nothing but the news. By the end of the 80s, major communication corporations had bottled up radio media to the point where AM started to become the bastion of conservative extremism we see today. That was also beneficial to the creation of Fox News by media mogul Rupert Murdoch during the 90s. It's a rather large and complex subject, but Ronald's ownership society boiled down to those with the most money can control and put forth whatever message they wish - and they have. His whole trickle-down theory was code for trickle up, which it accomplished exactly since his administration. Top management has since gone from 40x the lowest paid worker in their employment to almost 500x. It's not an accident that the super wealthy have amassed so much wealth since then, that they could give too carrots about the country itself anymore. They are as mobile as their wealth is, and see a country as nothing more than resources for further wealth building potential. But, we at the bottom sure know how to worship a flag and lose our minds should someone set one aflame. We now have two generations of republican extremists, weaned and raised on this stuff. This is why there are so many unbelievable people running about, believing things you didn't think possible. They've been raised to think anyone but conservative are enemies. Just as they think anyone who falls into the category of "other", is to be considered a threat. Even if you reinstituted the Fairness Doctrine, broke up all the concentrated ownership, and attempted to "reeducate" people through their schooling, it wouldn't change anything if at all for a very long time. It took two plus generations to create this mess, it will take two or three times that long to undo it.
@@datatwo7405 You say all this and yet, for TV, Fox News and conservative media are the exception, not the rule. The left dominate TV, the right got talk radio but the free-thinkers went onto the Internet - no rules or laws were needed for that - everyone is free to publish whatever they want and it's on the consumer of the content to look for the other side(s) (because there's more than just two) - the way it ought to be. Unfortunately however, it seems that whilst the number of people using the Internet is getting larger, the number of websites the average person visits is getting smaller. Whilst the Internet will never be TV (thank goodness!), if people don't actively exercise their ability to choose, a path (or doctrine) will be chosen for them, and like sheep they will follow. It's on the individual to seek out new information, not a government to force it upon them.
To protect Peoples Rights be it what You deem communist doesn’t Make the aclu a communist Organization Yes McCarthy was early Todays politicians ( both sides Of the aisle) say anything to get votes , Words mean Nothing To These People A terrible human being who Should’ve never been in a position of Leadership McCarthy is the model for trump , Biden , green etc
This is great. Thanks very much. I have been searching for an Ed Murrow documentary from 1959 called "The Lost Class Of '59" which is about the closing of schools in Norfolk Virginia to avoid court ordered integration. Is that available anywhere?

I had to study Murrow in my comm class in college. It was an incredibly interesting topic to focus in on, yet it was still so relevant today.
Autonomous Journalism is long dead in America; All hail the king/Illuminati!
This helps me to fall asleep for some reason.
Never realized how much Phil Rizzutto sounded like Groucho Marx.
HOLY COW!
Do you have any radio airchecks that runs for hours non stop ? Like music stations ?

@@datatwo7405 😲. This was a tremendously well thought and intelligent reply. Thank you! I love the comment on AM radio too.

Except when they were ordered to attack those who were exposing them.
Notice what happened to Snowden and Assange.
Phil Rosutto died robbing the money store.
Holy cow!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Is there nothing on audio recording Eisenhower's heart attack?
No word on his heart attack because it was in Sept 1955 not March 54 - in other words it hadn't happened yet.
Snowden,Assange,and others have proven Murrow wrong.
McCarthy was just early.
To protect
Peoples
Rights be it what
You deem communist doesn’t
Make the aclu a communist
Organization
Yes
McCarthy was early
Todays politicians ( both sides
Of the aisle) say anything to get votes ,
Words mean
Nothing
To
These
People
A terrible human being who
Should’ve never been in a position of
Leadership
McCarthy is the model for trump ,
Biden , green etc
One
More
Thing
The senator from
Wisconsin was an
Abusive alcoholic and
A morphine Addict
He drove Aslinger crazy
This is great. Thanks very much. I have been searching for an Ed Murrow documentary from 1959 called "The Lost Class Of '59" which is about the closing of schools in Norfolk Virginia to avoid court ordered integration.

1:31:50 and we're STILL working on Solar 70 years later. Maybe they realized how many businesses would suffer.

Well that assessment of McCarthy didn't age well...
yeah Murrow doesn't get enough credit as the fifth columnist he was. they're all scumbags! He was their King!
They didn't mention the best thing McCarthy did... Die.
No he was correct -
McCarthy was a monster , addled and
Full of hate
