A long-imagined dream of building a museum honoring broadcasting and electronic media has just taken another step forward.
Plans are in the works for the creation of the National Museum of Broadcasting in Pittsburgh that will explore the 103-year-old timeline of electronic media, from its humble beginnings in AM radio all the way to our modern era of streaming and social. The city of Pittsburgh was selected for its stamp on broadcasting history: Station KDKA(AM) began broadcasting from the Steel City more than 103 years ago and is considered the world’s first commercial radio station.
