Radio Journalism in America: Telling the News in the Golden Age and Beyond

This history of radio news reporting recounts and assesses the contributions of radio toward keeping America informed since the 1920s. It identifies distinct periods and milestones in broadcast journalism and includes a biographical dictionary of important figures who brought news to the airwaves. Americans were dependent on radio for cheap entertainment during the Great Depression and for critical information during the Second World War, when no other medium could approach its speed and accessibility.

Radio dramatization of NightfallRadio dramatization of Nightfall

Isaac Asimov's classic short story

This is the dramatization of Asimov's orginal 1941 short story, broadcasted in 1950 (very good quality). It is about  a world called Kalgash that doesn't know what a night is due to it's six suns. But darkness is coming and fear is the companion that may prevent the planet's civilization from seeing the stars for the first time.
The story was turned into a novel by Robert Silverberg in 1990 with Asimov's blessings and assistance but no dramatization has been made of it, as far as I know.
