Ofcom also has a duty to ensure that On Demand Programme Services (“ODPS”) comply with certain standards requirements set out in the Act2. Ofcom reflects these requirements in its codes and rules. The Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin reports on the outcome of Ofcom’s investigations into alleged breaches of its codes and rules, as well as conditions with which broadcasters licensed by Ofcom are required to comply. The codes and rules include: a) Ofcom’s Broadcasting Code (“the Code”) for content broadcast on television and radio services licensed by Ofcom, and for content on the BBC’s licence fee funded television, radio and on demand services. b) the Code on the Scheduling of Television Advertising (“COSTA”), containing rules on how much advertising and teleshopping may be scheduled on commercial television, how many breaks are allowed and when they may be taken. c) certain sections of the BCAP Code: the UK Code of Broadcast Advertising, for which Ofcom retains regulatory responsibility for television and radio services. These include: • the prohibition on ‘political’ advertising; • ‘participation TV’ advertising, e.g. long-form advertising predicated on premium rate telephone services – notably chat (including ‘adult’ chat), ‘psychic’ readings and dedicated quiz TV (Call TV quiz services); and • gambling, dating and ‘message board’ material where these are broadcast as advertising3. d) other conditions with which Ofcom licensed services must comply, such as requirements to pay fees and submit information required for Ofcom to carry out its statutory duties. Further information can be found on Ofcom’s website for television and radio licences. e) Ofcom’s Statutory Rules and Non-Binding Guidance for Providers of On-Demand Programme Services for editorial content on ODPS (apart from BBC ODPS). Ofcom considers sanctions for advertising content on ODPS referred to it by the Advertising Standards Authority (“ASA”), the co-regulator of ODPS for advertising, or may do so as a concurrent regulator. Other codes and requirements may also apply to broadcasters, depending on their circumstances. These include the requirements in the BBC Agreement, the Code on Television Access Services (which sets out how much subtitling, signing and audio description relevant licensees must provide), the Code on Electronic Programme Guides, the Code on Listed Events, and the Cross Promotion Code. 1 The relevant legislation is set out in detail in Annex 1 of the Code. 2 The relevant legislation can be found at Part 4A of the Act. 3 BCAP and ASA continue to regulate conventional teleshopping content and spot advertising for these types of services where it is permitted. Ofcom remains responsible for statutory sanctions in all advertising cases. 3 Issue 385 of Ofcom’s Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin 27 August 2019 It is Ofcom’s policy to describe fully television, radio and on demand content. Some of the language and descriptions used in Ofcom’s Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin may therefore cause offence. 4 Issue 385 of Ofcom’s Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin 27 August 2019 Notice of Sanction Autonomous Non-profit Organisation TV-Novosti Introduction RT is a global news and current affairs channel produced in Russia and funded by the Federal Agency for Press and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation. The channel is made for UK audiences, providing a Russian perspective on UK and global news and current affairs related programming. In the UK, the channel broadcasts on satellite and digital terrestrial platforms. The licence for RT is held by Autonomous Non-profit Organisation TV-Novosti (“TV Novosti” or the “Licensee”). This sanction related to seven programmes which were concerned with the following issues: the poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal in Salisbury on 4 March 2018 (Sputnik, 17 March and 7 April 2018); the armed conflict in Syria (Crosstalk, 13, 16 and 20 April 2018; News, 18 March 2018); and the Ukrainian Government’s position on Nazism and its treatment of Roma Gypsies (News, 26 April 2018). In the decisions published on 20 December 2018 in Issue 369 of the Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin (the “Breach Decisions”), Ofcom found that each of the seven programmes listed above had failed to maintain due impartiality and had breached Rule 5.1 and/or Rules 5.11 and 5.12 of the Code:1 Rule 5.1: “News, in whatever form must be reported with due accuracy and presented with due impartiality”. Rule 5.11: “…due impartiality must be preserved on matters of major political and industrial controversy and major matters relating to current public policy by the person providing a service…in each programme or in clearly linked and timely programmes”. Rule 5.12: “In dealing with matters of major political and industrial controversy and major matters relating to current public policy an appropriately wide range of significant views must be included and given due weight in each programme or in clearly linked and timely programmes. View and facts must not be misrepresented”. In accordance with Ofcom’s penalty guidelines, Ofcom decided that it was appropriate and proportionate in the circumstances to impose a financial penalty of £200,000 on the Licensee in respect of these serious Code breaches (payable to HM Paymaster General). In addition, TV Novosti is directed to broadcast a statement of Ofcom’s findings in this case, on dates and in a form to be determined by Ofcom. 1 Specifically, Ofcom found that Sputnik, 17 March and 7 April 2018 and Crosstalk, 13, 16 and 20 April 2018, breached Rules 5.11 and 5.12, News, 18 March 2018 breached Rules 5.1, 5.11 and 5.12, and News, 26 April 2018 breached Rule 5.1. Ofcom’s investigation also considered a further three programmes that Ofcom concluded were not in breach of the Code. 5 Issue 385 of Ofcom’s Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin 27 August 2019 Ofcom will not enforce this sanction until legal proceedings regarding the Breach Decisions have been concluded. The full sanction decision was published on 26 July 2019. 6 Issue 385 of Ofcom’s Broadcast and On Demand Bulletin 27 August 2019 Broadcast Standards cases In Breach The No Repeat 9 to 5 on Sam FM Sam FM Bristol, 20 May 2019, 12:34 Introduction Sam FM (Bristol) is a local commercial station providing a music and news service for the over-35s in and around Bristol. The licence for Sam FM (Bristol) is held by Celador Radio Ltd (“Celador” or “the Licensee”). Ofcom received a complaint that the broadcast of the song 2All by Catfish and the Bottlemen, as played during ‘The No Repeat 9 to 5 on Sam FM’ show, included lyrics which contained the most offensive language. The song contained one use of the word “fuck”. We considered that this material raised potential issues under Rule 2.3 of the Code1: Rule 2.3: “In applying generally accepted standards, broadcasters must ensure that material which may cause offence is justified by the context…Appropriate information should also be broadcast where it would assist in avoiding or minimising offence”. We asked the Licensee for its comments on how the material complied with this rule. Response The Licensee apologised for the broadcast of the song. It acknowledged that the version of the song broadcast included lyrics that were “unacceptable for broadcast on Sam FM at that time”. The Licensee said that this occurred when the offensive lyric was “inadvertently missed during a routine compliance check of the song”. The Licensee said that the song was broadcast during “automated, presenter-free programming” and the offensive lyric was not spotted at the time. The Licensee said that the offensive lyric was “detected the following day” and the song was “immediately pulled” from the Licensee’s system to prevent this from being broadcast again. The Licensee said that it had “taken steps” to tighten the compliance process for clearing songs so that this “unfortunate error is not repeated in future”. In response to Ofcom’s Preliminary View, the Licensee said it had no further comment to make, but noted that Celador uses the word “automated” as opposed to “automatic” to describe their output at the time the offending song was broadcast and the on-air show 1 We did not consider this material raised issues under Rule 1.14 (“The most offensive language must not be broadcast…when children are particularly likely to be listening (in the case of radio)…”) because this broadcast at 12:34 fell outside the times indicated in Ofcom’s guidance as being when children are particularly likely to be listening to radio programming.

  • Anne Karpf/The Sound of Home? Some Thoughts on How the Radio Voice Anchors, Contains and Sometimes Pierces (Pre-Print Version; Published in The
    1 Anne Karpf/The sound of home? Some thoughts on how the radio voice anchors, contains and sometimes pierces (pre-print version; published in The Radio Journal, vol.11, no.1, April 2013, pp.59-73) Abstract This article argues that while psychoanalytic theory has been valuably employed by television, film and cultural studies, there has been no comparable 'psychoanalytic turn' in radio studies. It suggests that the concept of 'containment', as developed variously by Wilfred Bion and Esther Bick, might go some way to explain the powerful role that the voice of the radio presenter can play in the regular listener's internal world, with the capacity both to 'hold' the listener together, and to transform overwhelming fears into more manageable feelings. It argues that the disembodied radio voice does this partly because it recalls the prenatal power of the maternal voice, and partly through the temporal order that regular radio voices impose on the internal and external world. Both Second World War British radio catchphrases and Roosevelt's Fireside Chats are discussed in relation to their containment function. The article also explores the radio as a transitional space, as defined by Donald Winnicott, through which it can constitute listeners into an 'imagined community'. It ends by reflecting on the impact of the angry voice of 2 the 'shock-jock' which, it suggests, amplifies rather than contains overwhelming feelings.1 Contributor's details Anne Karpf is Reader in Professional Writing and Cultural Inquiry at London Metropolitan University. A journalist, broadcaster and radio critic of The Guardian for seven years, her books include 'The Human Voice' (Bloomsbury, 2006; Ehrenwirth, 2007; Autrement, 2008; Soshisha, 2008).

  • REQUIEM for DONBAS Three Essays on the Costs of War in Ukraine
    JOHANNES KEPLER UNIVERSITY LINZ Altenberger Str. 69 4040 Linz, Austria www.jku.at, DVR 0093696 REQUIEM FOR DONBAS Three Essays on the Costs of War in Ukraine By Artem Kochnev A Doctoral Thesis submitted at Department of Economics to obtain the academic degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Doctoral Program “PhD Program in Economics” Supervisor and First Examiner Second Examiner em. Univ-Prof. Dr. Michael Landesmann Dr. habil. rer. soc. oec. Robert Stehrer May 2020 Abstract The thesis investigates short- and long-term effects of war on the economy of Ukraine. Specifically, it discusses the impact of separatists’ control and subsequent adverse trade policies on the real economy, responses of stock market investors to battle events, and the effect of conflict intensity on reform progress and institutional change in Ukraine. The thesis finds that the impact of war on the economy is most pronounced on the real economy of the war-torn regions. Whereas separatists’ control caused a decline in economic activity by at least 38%, the thesis does not find evidence supporting that the impact of conflict intensity on asset prices and institutional change in Ukraine was linear in parameters. The thesis explains the lack of the linear relationship between asset price move- ments and conflict intensity by investors’ inattention caused by information overload during the early stages of the conflict. Regarding the possible relationship between con- flict and institutional change, the thesis argues that it was electoral competition, not the conflict dynamics, that had an impact on the decision-making process of the policymak- ers in Ukraine.
