Behind the Tube (1990) tells the story of the unseen foundation of modern radio, TV and cable – the technology that enables programming to reach an audience. It charts the evolution of this technology in all its facets – technical, personal, economic and social. It captures the efforts, strategies, achievements and failures of prominent and unheralded figures and companies in the dynamic and competitive broadcast industry.
