Mass Media is an advance in Civilization: Call to Power.
Summary[]
The seventh Economic Advance, Mass Media heralds the entry of transistors and silicon chips into consumer life. This revolutionary technology allows for Television and Hollywood, both of which increase gold. The airwaves also open the door to the Televangelist, who asks for gold in exchange for eternal salvation and soothsay.
Great Library entry[]
Micro-circuitry opened up a new era of Mass Media. By replacing the heavy, breakable vacuum tubes that powered the radios and televisions of the early 20th century with transistors, companies reduced the size and cost of all electronic devices, ushering in a consumer boom in the new smaller appliances.
