  • Television in Russia Is the Concept of PSB Relevant?
    Television in Russia Is the Concept of PSB Relevant? Elena Vartanova & Yassen N. Zassoursky In the traditional Western discourse on commercial and public service broad- casting, little attention was given to the state TV model which was present in many countries of the ‘Socialist’ block, and in many Asian states as well. Strictly speaking, public service broadcasting [PSB] is not a common con- cept shared and implemented by different countries in a similar way, but rather a continuum that implies different modes of interaction between the society, audience, state, and social institutions. In many European countries – France, Germany, Netherlands, Finland, Spain, – PSB practices indicate varying degrees of control and interference from political forces, governments and state agencies (Weymouth and Lamizet, 1996, Euromedia Research Group, 1997). The model of Western European PSB provides clear evidence that the state as a social agent is not an entirely antagonistic force to public service. On the contrary, “some forms of accountability to (political representatives of) the public, other than through market forces”, was traditionally considered a key public service element (McQuail & Siune, 1998: 24). This has led to the acceptance of some forms of content regulation embodying positive and negative criteria which, in turn, were shaped by the need to serve the pub- lic interest more than commercial, political or consumerist interests of soci- ety and audience. In Western Europe, there were fierce tensions between the goals set by ‘society’ in relation to the public interest and demands of the audience as consumers (McQuail, 2000:157). Dissimilar to this, post-Socialist societies experienced another tension paradigm.

  • Russian Media Policy in the First and Second Checen Campaigns
    Laura Belin (doctoral candidate, University of Oxford) e-mail: [email protected] Paper given at the 52nd conference of the Political Studies Association Aberdeen, Scotland, 5-8 April 2002 RUSSIAN MEDIA POLICY IN THE FIRST AND SECOND CHECHEN CAMPAIGNS The military campaign in Chechnya from December 1994 to August 1996 became the "first real test of journalists' freedoms" since the end of the Soviet Union1 and loomed large in perceptions about the Russian media for the rest of the 1990s. Though some journalists had condemned "shock therapy" in 1992 and the shelling of the parliament in 1993, the Chechen war prompted the journalistic community to desert Boris Yel'tsin en masse for the first time. Moscow-based television networks were the public's main source of information on the fighting.2 The private network NTV exposed official lies about how the war was waged. Newscasts on state-owned Russian Television (RTR), which reached a nationwide audience on Channel 2, soon followed NTV's lead. Virtually all privately owned newspapers also raised their voices against the military campaign. The predominant slant of war coverage became a source of pride for many journalists. Though damning news reports did not end the bloodshed, steadfast public opposition to the war impelled Yel'tsin to pursue a ceasefire agreement while running for reelection in 1996.3 Both supporters and opponents of the military campaign believed that media coverage fostered and sustained the majority view. Yel'tsin rarely retreated from unpopular policies, but his turnaround on Chechnya arguably demonstrated that journalists had helped bring some degree of transparency and therefore accountability to 1 Frank Ellis, From Glasnost to the Internet: Russia's New Infosphere, London: Macmillan Press Ltd, 1999, p.

  • Reform of the Latvian Public Media in the Perspective of Developing
    Tomasz Fraszczyk Reform of the Latvian public media in the perspective of developing modern content distribution technologies, evolution of user needs and complicated Latvia–Russia relations KEY WORDS Latvia, public media, media policy, new media, Russia ABSTRACT The article presents an outline of the evolution of the Latvian audiovisual media market (after 1988), the influence of the 2009 market crash on media entities (including those public) and key discussion topics and decisions made as a result of the crisis by Latvian institutions responsible for the media landscape. Detailed attention will be given to the new law on electronic mass media (in force from 2011) and those elements of the public media system reform project (announced in 2013), that are an outcome of the dynamic development of new content distribution technologies and changing user needs and habits, especially in younger age groups. The final part of the work will concern the complicated Latvia–Russia relations and the multi-aspect contribution of mass media in their shaping. The conclusion indicates a broad scope of discussion and analytical works in Latvia concerning the reform of public media, which suggests it will not be abandoned in the following years. In the beginning of January 2013, the Latvian National Electronic Mass Media Council (NEPL Padome) published a new strategy for the public radio (LR) and television (LTV). It aims to rebuild the position of the public service broadcasters (LSM) after the severe crisis of 2009–2010, which had seriously damaged not only the finances but also the market position of these institutions. In the youngest age groups, these shares are the smallest by far and do not exceed 20 % for the television and 8 % for the radio1.

  • Old and New Constraints in Foreign News Coverage in Post-Communist Ukraine  Natalya Ryabinska UKRAINIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY in LVIV, UKRAINE
    Old and new constraints in foreign news coverage in post-communist Ukraine Natalya Ryabinska UKRAINIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY IN LVIV, UKRAINE ABSTRACT: In the 1970s, when intellectual debate in the rest of the world was preoccupied with the problem of an imbalanced, one-way information flow between Western industrialized countries and less-developed countries in South and East, people in the Soviet Union faced another problem — a problem of deficit of information from the West, which was a result of purposeful politics of the Soviet state. In 1989 the Iron Curtain fell, but it does not mean that nowadays there are no bounds and boundaries in the flow of information to and from the Former Soviet Republics. This paper deals with the issue of foreign news in contemporary Ukraine and explores constraints in making international news in the media. It analyses a set of determinants of international news production in the Ukrainian media and the way they influence the scope and quality of foreign news coverage. The re- search is based on interviews with about thirty media experts and news producers at major Ukrainian broadcasting organizations, as well as from print and online media. The interviewees — editors-in- chief, heads of international news’ departments, foreign correspondents — were asked about the pro- cess of international news production in their editorial offices, the human and technical resources allocated for foreign news coverage, the professional standards of international journalism, as well as the main sources of foreign news and criteria of their selection involved in the news making process. Results of the study show that international news making in Ukraine is influenced by peculiar fac- tors rooted in the Soviet past, such as journalists’ inclination to one-sided reporting and poor com- mand of foreign languages (except Russian), and by common factors determining tendencies in for- eign news coverage worldwide, such as the pressure of the market which induces cost-cutting in media organizations and tabloidization of media content.

Telecommunications and information technology (IT) System House Business Partners Established in 2012, System House Business Partners for the first time on the Russian market presented systems for organizing wireless live broadcasts. © 2021. «Made in Russia» madeinrussia.ru © 2021. «Made in Russia» System House Business Partners System House Business Partners Established in 2012, System House Business Partners for the first time on the Russian market presented systems for organizing wireless live broadcasts. At that time, domestic television actively used mobile satellite stations for live broadcasting, the main disadvantages of which were: long preparation time for departure, low mobility, high cost per minute of broadcasting. The system presented by System House allowed transmitting video signal from professional TV cameras to the receiving server in the TV channel studio by means of summing up available wired and wireless networks. History of the company The first customer of the company was the All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company. During the next few years the following clients of System House company were included: NTV, ITRC MIR, Channel One, RBC Group, Ren TV, Reuters, TV Centre, Channel Five and others. The company has established a large staff of professional engineers to service systems for live broadcasting. System House Business Partners was also actively involved in the organization of broadcasts of such landmark events as Moscow Victory Parade and Direct Line with Vladimir Putin. Over the years of operation of systems from different manufacturers, the company has gained unique experience and decided to create its own line of equipment for video and data transmission over unified communication channels under the Emerlink trademark.

A crowd of about 100 000 people had gathered to protest against electoral fraud in the Russian parliamentary elections, which had taken place nearly three weeks before. As more and more people joined the demonstration, their euphoria grew to fever pitch. Although the 24 December demonstration changed Russia, the period of euphoria was tolerated only until Vladimir Putin was once again installed as president in May 2012.
