Answer 1

Broadcasters sold airtime to sponsors who then used it to run advertisements for their goods and services.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since NBC's success, this model has been adopted by other companies. Sponsors bought airtime from the broadcasters in order to run commercials during commercial breaks of the shows that were being broadcast. There is a direct correlation between airtime and popularity. And it turned out to be a win-win situation for everyone involved, including the radio station and the advertisers.
