I'm interested in finding out more about the game show scandals of the 1950s. I'm interested in particular in two things:

(1) Much like media activist organizing in recent years around media hot potatoes like the FCC and PBS, was there any activist organizing around the game show scandals, using the scandals as a window of opportunity to improve the U.S. commercial media, perhaps call for some structural changes? Did any of the left or radical press of the late 1950s call for any organizing? Was there any such activism?

(2) What was the business class' reaction to these scandals? I'm wondering if they were afraid that these scandals could have led to calls and actions for serious structural changes in the U.S media, making it less commercial and more responsive, and thus they made some cosmetic changes in the hopes of staving off more substantial changes.
