Abstract
This article explores the publication and reception of The American Radio (1947), one of the five supplementary volumes of the Hutchins Commission (the Commission on the Freedom of the Press), written by staff researcher Llewellyn White. It explores the background of the Hutchins Commission and the contexts for its far-reaching recommendations for the restructuring of US broadcasting. It also documents the contemporary response to The American Radio, and considers the extent to which it offered an alternative pathway for American media ecology that in the event was not taken.
