Aspects of his compilation of propaganda studies are included within this collection.\nRiegel joined the Washington and Lee University Journalism Department in 1930 and was named department head in 1934.

Some items of note include reports on the progress of Canada's Telesat system, Riegel's analysis of satellite communication, and Comsat and Intelesat reports from the early 1970's","Riegel discussed with over thirty correspondents over matters related to Communications Satellites and his academic article discussing the political barriers to satellite usage. Most correspondents provide suggestions to Riegel's article or explain how an academic journal they're associated with plans to use or not use his article.","Press releases in this subseries mostly come from the COMSAT, INTELSAT, and TELESAT corporations. These press releases give reports on the developments in the satellite industry, and the changes in stock values for these companies' shareholders.","Items in this subseries relate to pulbications from various sources refering to communications satellites.
