The story of advertising continues with Marconi's 'Wireless', Bose, Hertz, Edison, Tesla, Morse and The Titanic. But here come WW1 in 1914 and stymies it all.

The on-going establishment of Newspaper advertising, albeit with their new weekly sophistication, meant advertising was still really a one-horse pony as the 20th century began. The first radio news transmission was in 1920 in Detroit by station 8MK. Sports broadcasting followed in 1921 and then, regular broadcasts from Marconi in 1922.
