Excerpt from WebSite:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he opening guns of invasion were not at all loud, although they were heard by millions of people. George Bailey was one of the millions. I choose George Bailey because he was the only one who came within a googol of light-years of guessing what they were.

George Bailey was drunk and under the circumstances one can't blame him for being so. He was listening to radio advertisements of the most nauseous kind. Not because he wanted to listen to them, I hardly need say, but because he'd been told to listen to them by his boss, J. R. McGee of the MID network.

George Bailey wrote advertising for the radio. The only thing he hated worse than advertising was radio. And here on his own time he was listening to fulsome and disgusting commercials on a rival network.

Is anyone clicking the link and reading the story? Pretty good stuff, really! I'm guessing written in the 1930s-1940s time frame before TV was prevelent, mass media meant radio.
