Radio lost RCA's support to television as television rose; which statement is true?

• A. Radio shifted priority toward television as TV rose.
• B. Radio gained RCA's support after TV.
• C. RCA stopped all broadcasting.
• D. Radio and TV expanded together without shift.

Answer: (A)

When a new technology rises, organizations often shift their resources toward it. RCA, a major force in radio and a key player in early broadcasting, redirected its focus and investments to television as it emerged. That move means radio didn’t keep the same level of priority once TV became prominent; resources, development, and strategy tilted toward TV. So the statement that best fits is that radio shifted priority toward television as TV rose. The other possibilities don’t match this real-world pattern: RCA didn’t suddenly gain more support for radio after TV, didn’t stop broadcasting, and didn’t expand radio and TV without changing how they allocated their efforts.
