Devices that were most commonly available to my Parents and Grandparents

The most common and practical information tool would have been the radio. The radio was the most widely used media, because it was sound, hearing instead of reading is favored by more people. The Newspaper, would have also been a widely used and pratical media. When my mother was my age she would have had a gret deal of influence from the television, from when JFK was shot, to a Coca Cola commercial. These technologies have changed greatly over the past 60, and 0 years, that information, may be too great. There are many useless informants, like t-shirt ads, even many television commercials now.
