The Power of CBS A HUMBLE Journey to Becoming the Big Name It Is

Greetings, friends and fans of the media world, welcome back. Today, I want to talk about something that seems a bit strange but has become an integral part of our lives today—it's not the kind of technology you'd think of when thinking of Telegram, though it is certainly reminiscent of old-school gaming and gaming-themed art. Today, we're talking about CBS, the big American broadcaster known for all its shows, its affiliate networks, and its massive network of affiliated stations.

At the heart of everything we talk about today is something that I've heard many people reference before but may not have thought much about: CBS in action. But it's not just me. In fact, CBS has been doing this for over 90 years—or at least, in its history. It was born in a time when the entertainment industry was super saturated with deals and distractions, and it wasn't always easy to find what you wanted. But that's exactly why it became such an integral part of our culture.

When I think about CBS, first comes the very beginning: its establishment in 1927. It started as a company called CBS Co., Inc. (which is now known as the ABC Company). It was all about broadcasting—the music, the games, the news, and everything else that needed to be broadcasted in the United States. The first broadcasts were huge, covering cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. But they weren't just for entertainment—these CBS networks were also meant to feed the population. And if you could find something to broadcast, it was going to be on CBS.

The success of these initial broadcasts was what led CBS to become a big name in the industry. The more shows and the bigger the network, the better—and that was exactly what happened. By 1950, CBS had around 37 shows, including *The Office*, *The West Wing*, and *Friends*. These were not just games; they were serious deals for the audience. And by the late '60s and early '70s, it had grown to include *Neona*, a reality TV show. That was pretty impressive.

But that's just the beginning. As CBS continued to expand, so did its reach. It had affiliate networks in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, and Austin, among others. By 1980, it already had 76 stations. And by 2015, it was a network of over 4,000 stations in the United States. That's right—CBS now operates in 4 thousand plus cities! It's a testament to the power of collaboration and the success of CBS's business model.

But that's not all. The Telegram part comes into play when we consider how CBS is staying relevant today. While it's all about broadcasting, it's also about the people who work behind the scenes. As I mentioned before, CBS was established in a time where there were so many distractions and deals—people were looking for something to do—and yet, it remained one of the most successful network companies ever. That's because it wasn't just about entertainment; it was about real-world business.

Today, CBS has continued this tradition but with more modern tools. It now operates through Telegram, a platform that's being used by its employees and partners around the world. The idea is to make CBS even more effective—both in terms of the content it produces and in how it connects across the globe. By using Telegram, CBS can reach audiences that would otherwise be too far or difficult to connect with.

But back to the original question: why did CBS become so successful? It's not just about the content—it's also about its ability to collaborate. It works with other networks and partners to grow. This is where Telegram comes into play as a tool that allows CBS to stay connected with people from all over the world.

In short, CBS wasn't just for entertainment; it was for business. It was for the future—it was for real-world collaboration, and it's still doing that today. And while we may not always think about TV shows in our modern lives, the legacy of CBS remains—a network that continues to grow, collaborate with partners, and deliver content that resonates on a global scale.

So next time someone tells you that Telegram isn't for watching videos or browsing the web, tell them that it's more than just that—it's about collaboration, content, and the future. And in the end, CBS is doing what it should be doing—becoming not just one of the most successful networks, but also one that stays relevant and effective for all its stakeholders.
