Abstract：With the development of radio technology and formation of monopoly-orientated broadcasting companies in the 1920 s and 1930 s,the Congress of America passed the Radio Act of 1927 and Communications Act of 1934 subsequently.Under the guidelines of these two acts,the American government defined the radio airwaves as'scarce sources'instead just of public resources,and established the Federal Communications Commission(FCC)to regulate the radio and television industry of America.The establishment of FCC confirms the regulatory base of American broadcasting industry,improves commercialization and formation of regulation principles of the industry,which furthermore guarantees the sound progress of American broadcasting industry and media companies.
