The role of social media in radio

Over to You

Available for over a year

This week, in response to a recent World Service programme about the early days of radio, a listener in Los Angeles adds a different perspective on the invention of radio by drawing attention to the pioneering role of the work of Nikola Tesla. Also, we discuss the way that social media is changing the relationship between listeners, programme-makers and broadcasters, with the World Service's digital editor.
