Pennsylvania
has a long history of communications firsts. The first commercial radio station,
the first public television station, and the first nickelodeon were all in Pittsburgh.
Philadelphia, of course, was home to Ben Franklin and his "Poor Richard's
Almanac." Westmoreland County's Anne Newport Royall is generally considered
to be the first female journalist.
Today, Pennsylvania maintains its reputation as a communications leader. Newspapers,
such as the Public Opinion Newspaper,
radio and television stations have been joined by countless New Media
outlets to keep Pennsylvania and the world informed.
Below are the newspapers and other communications outlets in Pennsylvania that
offer tours.
