Neither. Farnsworth did. Maybe you're asking about the radio, was it Marconi or Tesla?

There's a decent argument that Bain invented it as facsimile in the 1840s and everything from there on til the introduction of commercial television was essentially just refinement until it produced a high enough frame rate and without wires.
