Describes and analyzes the battles over the powerful medium of radio, which helped spark the massive upsurge of organized labor during the Depression. Organized chronologically, this work explores the advent of local labor radio stations such as WCFL and WEVD, labor's anti-censorship campaigns, and unionist experiments with early FM broadcasting.
