A Blessing to Mankind

This week we're looking at the impact of television on science fiction. To do this we want to look at two things, one being the social impact of television as a medium and another being science fiction on tv. Both offer interesting venues for discussion. Take a look at the embedded videos. The first being from the 1939 Worlds Fair where FDR was televised, the first president to appear on television. the second is Philo Farnsworth appearing on tv, and the final is a RCA History of Television. The RCA production naturally focuses on RCA!!!
