How has deregulation changed the radio and recording industry changed?

Deregulation has changed the radio recording industry in drastic ways. In the twenties the government was involved in controlling the airy ways when it came to the radio. They had a say in what was actually said during broadcasting. No one had any freedom to express how he or she really felt to the public about certain topics. The only good thing about the government controlling what is put on the radio was that, what people listened to never had any obscenity or indecency. In the present day the government is no longer in control of the entire radio and recording industry. They only have control through the FCC, which is an independent national government agency that watches over the air by having rules and regulations against certain things that are said. As long as the radio and recording industry follow the rules, they have the creative freedom to say basically whatever they want. Our radio industry is hitting certain target audiences and bringing in much revenue by saying and doing what the people want to hear. The radio and recording industry will never fail because everyone listens to music. This industry just keeps getting better and better as the decades go on
