Herbert Morrison was assigned by NBC Red affiliate WLS (AM) in Chicago to cover the event; as he had no ability to broadcast the landing of the zeppelin live, he and his engineer decided to record it as an experiment. The ensuing transcription (including the now-famous "Oh, the humanity" idiom) aired on the NBC Red Network the next day, a first for the network given that NBC's policy at the time forbade the use of prerecorded news actualities. *12 October: Fireside chat: ''On Legislation to be Recommended to the Extraordinary Session of the Congress''. *14 November: Fireside chat: ''On the Unemployment Census''. *12 December: Mae West makes a risqué guest appearance on ''The Chase and Sanborn Hour'' that eventually results in her being banned from radio. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1937 in radio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
