In the 1950s, more and more Homes had a television Mostly due to Which of the following?

a. The advertising business

b. The GI Bill funding for TV purchases

c. The mass production of televisions

d. The rise of the counterculture

Answer:- c. The mass production of televisions

The correct answer is ‘the mass production of televisions.’ The mass production of televisions caused the price of televisions to drop, making them more affordable for the average American family. In 1950, only 9% of American homes had television sets but by 1959, 85.9% of families had purchased sets.

The GI Bill did provide funding for education and housing, but it did not provide funding for TV purchases. The invention of television occurred in the 1920s, and the rise of the counterculture occurred in the 1960s.
