How have TV and Radio evolved?

Evolved is an incorrect word to use when discussing the changing roles of television and radio. A better question is how they have changed and if in fact they will be with us for much longer. Radio is a media that had very vastly changed over the years. It went from a time when radio programs were a family ritual and time of entertainment, to a time when music and silly talk shows overwhelm the radio. The time and perception of the radio has also changed. Why listen to a radio talk show when you have them on television? Radio is primarily listened to in the car. That is the bottom line and radio is in a decline which will inevitable continue until it is extinct. Television however, may have a chance to stay around a little longer. There are still families who do sit down and watch programs together. However, it is only a matter of time before something even better than the television hits the world by storm.
