In this report I would like to study about Itv’s News channel functions and nature of works in ITV’s graphics hub etc. ITV is a 24-hour television news channel in the United Kingdom which Launched in 1955 as Independent Television. It started broadcasting from 1 August 2000 to 23 December 2005. Latterly only between 6:00 am and 6:00 pm when ITV4 cut its hours to half day in 2005 and analogue cable, presenting national and international news plus regular business, sport, entertainment and weather summaries. Priority was usually given to breaking news stories. There was also an added focus on British stories, drawing on the resources of the ITV network's regional newsrooms. As a public service broadcaster, the ITV network is obliged to broadcast programming of public importance, including news, current affairs, children's and religious programming as well as party election broadcasts on behalf of the major political parties and political events.

  • Diamond Technical Account and Methodology
    Diamond Technical Account and Methodology What is Diamond? Diamond is designed to answer two questions: - Does the workforce on UK productions, both on and off-screen, reflect the diversity of the UK population? - Are audiences seeing themselves reflected on-screen. With the support of production companies, Diamond collects diversity data directly from cast and crew working on TV programmes (actual data), as well as information about how those on-screen might be perceived by viewing audiences (perceived data). Diamond data collection Scope Diamond is collecting data from: UK original productions commissioned by BBC, ITV, Channel 4, C5/ViacomCBS and Sky.
