Television is a medium of communication that is used to transmit moving images with sound accompaniment for any number of entertainment, informational, or advertising purposes. This medium was invented in the late 1920s, but was originally only used for crude experimental purposes; it would be another two decades before it could be developed and improved enough to gain its present importance in communication. Since the 1950s, television has been commonplace in homes, businesses, and institutions and has been a primary influence on public opinion.
