The Police Reporter is an early true crime drama from 1932-33, consisting of fifteen-minute episodes that aired on WEAF and KGPJ. The series pre-dates the more famous show, "Gangbusters", making it one of the earliest true crime shows on the air. Produced by Radio Release Limited, the series used solicited scripts from "The Writer's Market" and was based on true crime stories, often featuring real names, dates, and locations.</p><p>Each episode of The Police Reporter focuses on grisly murders, ranging from historical cases to contemporary headlines from the time. The show highlights the incompetence of criminals rather than the investigative prowess of police, with murderers often being foiled by seemingly insignificant details they missed. Unlike modern media, the series relied on the power of imagination, resulting in chilling crime scene depictions that could be disturbing for some listeners.</p><p>The Police Reporter may not be suitable for children, given its sensationalism, melodrama, and dark true crime content. The show, however, serves as a fascinating artifact of radio history and true crime storytelling.
