What happened in Newton, Massachusetts, after the 1940's? The days when we never locked our doors . . . Never feared . . . Why, after 1952, was Marash Girl's mom always locking the doors to the house? Marash Girl doesn't know. Can anyone out there help out?
When did Marash Girl's mom get her first television set? 1952 is sometimes associated as a year when television sets became plentiful in homes. If the evening news back then was anything like it is today ("if it bleeds, it leads"), then that’s when the widespread fear mongering through mainstream media likely began. Sad, isn't it?
