Public Service Hit Radio? Playlists and Product Differentiation in the Competition for Listeners
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Trepo - Institutional Repository of Tampere University Published in: Radio Journal: International Studies in Broadcast & Audio Media 15(1), 27–45. DOI: 10.1386/rjao.15.1.27_1 Public service hit radio? Playlists and product differentiation in the competition for listeners Heikki Hellman, University of Tampere Arto Vilkko, freelance researcher Abstract Since the 1960s, public service broadcasters have attempted to meet the demand for music by young listeners. As commercial radio offerings have expanded, and as public broadcasters are monitored more closely than before, the question arises as to what degree and in which ways public service radio should differ from commercially formatted stations. This article analyses the differentiation strategies applied in music programming by major radio stations in targeting youth and young adults in Finland. Employing a multi- measure approach in the analysis of the content, the results confirm that YleX, a popular music station of the public broadcaster YLE, differs significantly from its major commercial rivals Energy and The Voice. The article argues that even a radio station focusing on the latest hits can fulfil a public service mission. Keywords Commercial radio playlists public service radio competition radio music Yleisradio 1 Introduction Both the normative theory of the media (e.g. Christians et al. 2009; McQuail 1992) and the European regulatory governance of broadcast media (e.g. European Commission 2009) state that public service media (PSM) are not only expected but required to promote social, cultural and educational goals, i.e. ‘to serve public interest, nurture the public sphere, enable democratic society and feed the culture with merit goods’ (Tracey 2014: 89). -

It should be noted in the latter case that mélodie, Melodie, melodia, melodi (French, German, Latin and Scandinavian languages respectively) can in popular parlance sometimes denote the entirety of any TUNE or SONG (including lyrics and accompa- niment) in which melody, defined according to [1] and [2] above, is a prominent fea- ture. -

For more information, please contact [email protected]. EDDIE MURPHY IN THE CUT: RACE, CLASS, CULTURE, AND 1980S FILM COMEDY by GAIL A. MCFARLAND Under the Direction of Lia T. Bascomb, PhD ABSTRACT Race, class, and politics in film comedy have been debated in the field of African American culture and aesthetics, with scholars and filmmakers arguing the merits of narrative space without adequately addressing the issue of subversive agency of aesthetic expression by black film comedians. With special attention to the 1980-1989 work of comedian Eddie Murphy, this study will look at the film and television work found in this moment as an incisive cut in traditional Hollywood industry and narrative practices in order to show black comedic agency through aesthetic and cinematic narrative subversion. Through close examination of the film, Beverly Hills Cop (Brest, 1984), this project works to shed new light on the cinematic and standup trickster influences of comedy, and the little recognized existence of the 1980s as a decade that defines a base period for chronicling and inspecting the black aesthetic narrative subversion of American film comedy.
