This week Dani covers the history of Thomas Edison. Was he a genius inventor or just a thief and a fraud? We cover inventions that you learned were Edison's, but they never really were. Maybe he was just so good at playing the media that he made the public believe. https://www.nps.gov/edis/learn/historyculture/edison-biography.htm   https://www.officialdata.org/us/inflation/1869?amount=40000   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TURsZ4m7L3o   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcrwTN5OEZY   https://www.matsusada.com/column/dc_and_ac.html   https://www.loc.gov/collections/edison-company-motion-pictures-and-sound-recordings/articles-and-essays/biography/life-of-thomas-alva-edison/   https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/10/28/the-real-nature-of-thomas-edisons-genius   https://edisonian.weebly.com/financials-and-company-structure.html   https://theconversation.com/thomas-edison-visionary-genius-or-fraud-99229   https://www.upcounsel.com/highest-number-of-patents-by-a-company Learn more about your ad choices.
