Here's what this seems like to me, before I get started I'll let you know that I can't remember the proper names of these people / companies, but I'll try anyway.
It all started when everyone was listening to AM radio, and scientists were trying to find a clearer way to transmit sounds, for AM wasn't the best thing ever. After a while, frequency modulation, or FM as we know it, was invented. It was either RCA, or some other large company, who wanted television to be the next big thing, so they wouldn't allow FM to be released.
The guy who discovered FM was destroyed, so he dressed in his finest suit, and then dropped from his 13th floor apartment room in 1952. Hence the line, "Video killed the radio star" and other such lyrics.
If I'm wrong, then I have no idea where I pulled this idea from.
