Since the introduction of regular series programmes on radio in the 1930s, the production of mass entertainment has become highly organised if not industrialised
In films, television, and radio. writers work to order with dead-lines to meet. actors learn their lines against the clock, and producers become factory managers rather than creative artists. All combine to feed ' the complicated apparatus of amusement '-and the acceleration continues.
