Broadcast
Overview
Commonwealth Club of California
More than two thousand sound recordings of speakers addressing the Commonwealth Club of California are housed at the Hoover Archives. A searchable database contains descriptive records (title, speaker name, date) for all of them, with more extensive cataloging an ongoing process.
Firing Line Television Program
The broadcast archive of William F. Buckley Jr.'s television show Firing Line is housed in the Hoover Institution Archives. Firing Line was broadcast from 1966 to 1999, first as an hour-long program and later as a half-hour show. A database describing all 1,504 Firing Line programs is available for searching.
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty
Founded in the tense, early days of the Cold War, Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) played the role of a surrogate free press for the nations behind the iron curtain. For more than five decades, RFE/RL has gathered, analyzed, and disseminated information in a unique way. Description and preservation of the collection continues, but several finding aids to the collection are available.
