On This Day 6th December:

1923 US President Calvin Coolidge makes the first Presidential radio broadcast.

He was on a tour in California, and about to be getting onto a train.
It had been announced in the newspapers, a crowd had gathered, they made the introduction "...for the first time in history, a President of the United States will deliver over the radio a message to the American people...", handed him the microphone, and he just said "Goodbye", and got onto the train and left.

(Known as "Silent Cal" for his economy with words & speeches, it became common to describe him as a "figurehead" / "do nothing" President, he was famously described as sleeping for 12 to 15 hours a day. However, it has also been noted that he did remarkable amount in his first few months of office from August 1923 until about June 1924, and it is suggested that his apparent lack of work rate after that was caused by severe depression, brought on following the very sudden death of his 16 year old son, from blood poisioning. He did not stand for a second term.)
