  Penny's History of WPTZ/W3XE
Since television receiver expansion was impossible because no companies were producing sets, WPTZ moved its operations to its transmitter site in Wynmoor, Pa., and confined it programming activities to films, a few shows from New York, and remote programs like football, parades, and sporting events in Philadelphia.
As a matter of fact, because of the war and the scarcity of sets, there was practically no commercial activity in television, and very little experimentation in television on the part of advertisers in the Philadelphia area, with the exception of the Atlantic Refining Company.
Down through its 19 years of television WPTZ had led the way in many of the innovations that today are considered standards of the industry.

 Baird
Early television pictures were about the size of a business card and because of the low resolution, the pictures were limited to head and shoulders.
Although television has not been adopted in movie theatres, the showing of films on television has become a big business; Rank Cintel (which had evolved from Baird Television) is one of the leading manufacturers of telecine equipment.
Baird Television Ltd. went into liquidation, and Baird found himself to be, in his own words, "a free agent." Left with scarce resources and no hope of procuring benevolent corporate backers, Baird was on his own.

 THE POLITICS OF TELEVISION PRIVATIZATION IN EASTERN EUROPE: PRIVATE? INDEPENDENT? COMMERCIAL?
Commercial television is not necessarily independent from the state, private operators could have educational or political ambitions, and state television has very often a great deal of interest in commercial operations.
The state television, in accord with the general policy of the government, reduced its broadcasting in ethnic minorities languages, and the number of over-the-air identifiable Hungarian-owned stations, in the Hungarian-inhabited regions, is only one or two (an average of one station for 800,000 inhabitants compared to a national average of 350,000 inhabitants per station).
Television should be used to dismantle the communist structures in power." When you propose social values to commercial television you not only risk limiting your viewership to your political constituency, such attitudes also enable the government to avoid an open debate on the differences between what is commercial, independent and private television.
