Hammerstrom, 71-103). Basically a microprocessor can be seen as a factory

Any new medium must go through investigation and must be explored to see the full potential and how it affects society. In the 1940’s radio emerged as a strong medium, allowing thousands to hear news, entertainment, and even propaganda.
