Editing Remote broadcast (section)

==History==
The first airing of a remote broadcast came in 1924, when [[Loews Cineplex Entertainment|Loew's Theater]] publicist and WHN (New York City) station manager [[Nils Granlund]] leased telegraph lines from [[Western Union]] to provide the first link in what became called cabaret broadcasting."<ref>''American Babel''; Doerksen, Clifford J.;University of Pennsylvania Press, 2005; Page 32.</ref> By early 1925, Granlund had established remote lines between WHN and more than thirty New York City jazz nightclubs, including the Silver Slipper, The Parody Club, the [[Cotton Club]], the Strand Roof, and Club Moritz. These [[big band remote]]s would become a staple of the [[old-time radio]] era, lasting well into the 1950s.

Nils T. Granlund cited the 1925 WHN airing of Senator [[Jimmy Walker|James J. Walker]]'s announcement of his New York City mayoral candidacy through a remote broadcast from the New York Press Club as the first such remote link for a political forum.<ref>''Blondes, Brunettes, and Bullets''; Granlund, Nils T.;Van Rees Press, New York, 1957; Page 102.</ref>
