Fessenden accomplished the first voice and music broadcast to ships from Massachusetts. “Oh Holy Night” was played and a few passages from the Bible were read during this magical night. Unfortunately, many scientists today believe that this story is only a wonderful myth.

The U.S. government began requiring radio operators to obtain licenses to send out signals in 1912 and the broadcasting pioneer Charles Herrold was on the air daily before World War I interrupted operations.

In other countries, especially in Europe, experiments and developments progressed. The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) was formed in 1922 and in Germany, the first radio program was on the air in October 1923.

World’s Oldest Audio Recording

On April 9, 1860, 17 years before Thomas Edison invented the phonograph, Parisian inventor Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville made a recording on a “phonautograph,” which worked by tracing sound waves onto paper blackened by smoke. Unplayable for more than a century, the recording was recently brought to life by new audio technology. On the recording, Scott is heard singing a snippet from the French folk song “Au Clair de la Lune.”

University of Chicago student exposes ‘racist’ class: ‘The Problem of Whiteness’

It’s absolutely UN-FREAK’N BELIEVABLE what is happening in this country!! Complete Insanity! Notice, once again, just as in the Nicholas Sandman incident, how the leftist, socialist/commie wannabe demon rat propaganda machine known as the lame stream media, instantly attacks a conservative kid! WE had better stand up and start speaking out against this bullshit or we are finished as a free country! Young men like this one give me hope for a return to sanity in the Divided States of America! Remember the name Daniel Schmidt. I have a feeling we’ll be hearing his name again.
