  • Maple and Shamrock: Seeking a Strategy for Survival in the Audiovisual Jungle
    Maple and Shamrock: seeking a strategy for survival in the audiovisual jungle. Colum Kenny Context Attempting to assess what the future might hold for Irish broadcasters and producers, especially in the light of digital and multimedia developments and of increasing competition, I recently paid a visit to Ontario and Quebec, two adjacent provinces of Canada. It is a country where audiovisual matters have long been taken seriously. Canada's proximity to the U.S. 'elephant', as that neighbour is sometimes known, concentrates the northern state's collective mind on survival strategies. Previous trips to Canada, including attendance at the Toronto Film Festival and participation as a guest in the Banff Television Festival in Alberta, had induced in the author an admiration for the practical ways in which Canadians have responded to audiovisual challenges. In contrast, Irish broadcasting developments have been stunted by bad planning and poor preparation and marked by an absence of clear strategic focus. Policy has been eschewed in favour of politics and opportunities to build up the kind of audiovisual sector we might have had have been lost. It was at Ottawa, in September 1948, that a visiting Taoiseach, John A. Costello, proclaimed for the first time his own government's intention of declaring Ireland a republic. His successors might consider another visit, specifically to see how a relatively small country can articulate successfully an elaborate media policy. Canada enjoys a remarkably sophisticated system of regulation, licensing and support which manages to keep scores of television stations and hundreds of radio services on the air in a country of under 30 million people.

Public broadcast organisations must adopt novel strategies to survive and compete in this new environment, where they need to combine public service with popularity. In this context, scheduling has emerged as the central management tool, organising production and controlling budgets, and is now the driving force in television.

It is, first of all, an account of why people tell stories. It is an exploration of what has been at stake in the whole, long and complex history of storytelling, stretching from the voices of the ancient bards to the signals of space age satellites. It is, in the second instance, a story about why particular people have told particular stories at a particular time in the history of a particular society. The Irish people have always been renowned as storytellers. This is the story of Irish storytelling in the television era. Although storytelling would seem to be a universal activity, fundamental to the human condition, it has by no means been a static one. It has not been the same for all times. It is an activity that has undergone enormous transformations.

However, disregarding these constraints, he argues that the families and so on from ideology of RTÉ producers is the real reason for the exclusion of society's powerless from two preceding soap operas, The Riordans and Bracken. television drama: The limitations and possibilities of Glenroe all boil down to the kinds of decisions made amongst the programmes makers. There is no real reason other than perhaps an ideological one which is preventing the series from placing either a traveller or unemployed character at the centre of the programme… (Devereux, 1998: 124). In his conclusion, the financial difficulties faced by RTÉ merely occupy the background and do not explain the ‘ideological decisions’ made by RTÉ producers (Devereux, 1998: 146). RTÉ television is described as ideological, that is, it ‘facilitates… the continuation of capitalism’ (1998:146).

  • The Impact of Television| A1 Sample Answer
    The Impact of Television| A1 sample answer What was the impact of RTE on Irish society (and exam year/ question where relevant) Undoubtedly, television has had a major impact on Irish society just as it has had on other countries. In Ireland, particularly in the 1960s, 70s and 80s, television helped broaden the horizons of people who might never before have been outside the country. It also acted as a great democratize, bringing formerly removed and aloof politicians down to the level of the ordinary proletariat and bringing important, once tabooed questions of religion and morality into the realm of the laymen. It changed how people consumed information and brought in influences, wanted or unwanted, from far flung places. It strengthened some staple aspects of everyday life and culture, such as sports and the Irish language, while it impacted negatively on others including the age old tradition of house-visiting. For good or for bad, television had a dramatic impact on the social landscape. Although television had existed in a crude form since the 1920s, TV had very little impact on Ireland until the establishment of ‘Teilifís Éirinn’ in 1961(Although some households on the east coast could receive signals from BBC transmitters at Sutton Coldfield). Irish Governments began considering the possibility of establishing a national broadcaster as early as 1950, but it was dismissed by Taoiseach John A. Costello as a “luxury service”. However by the 1960s Lemass’ government saw the necessity and possible advantages of a national broadcaster, and so passed the National Broadcasting Act establishing the ‘Raidio Éireann Authority’ under the auspices of the Department for Posts and Telegraphs.

Introduction This article examines the extent and significance of the under-representation of the disabled community in fictional film and television, arguing that when it is portrayed on- screen, the images are often inaccurate or unfair. Whereas media treatment of women, the gay community, or ethnic minorities has received considerable academic attention, no such priority has been given to the nature of the portrayal of the disabled, or the lack of proportional visibility on our screens.
