  • Exploiting Idols
    Exploiting Idols A case study of international TV formats trading in the absence of intellectual property protection1 Authors2: Martin Kretschmer & Sukhpreet Singh 1 Forthcoming 2010 in Robert Burnett & A.J. Zwaan (eds), Your Fans are Waiting: An academic volume on Idol. Research for this case study was funded under ESRC (UK) Grant No. RES–186–27–0012 (2008-09): ‘The Exploitation of Television Formats: Intellectual property and non-law based strategies’. 2 Sukhpreet Singh ([email protected]) is an Associate Lecturer in Media Management and a Research Fellow at the Centre for Intellectual Property Policy and Management, Bournemouth University, UK. Martin Kretschmer ([email protected]) is Professor of Information Jurisprudence and Director of the Centre for Intellectual Property Policy and Management (www.cippm.org.uk). Martin Kretschmer was the principal investigator of the ESRC project; Sukhpreet Singh was the lead researcher, carrying out the bulk of the empirical work. The research design was developed jointly. We would like to acknowledge the contribution of Jon Wardle, Director of the Centre for Excellence in Media Practice at Bournemouth University, www.cemp.ac.uk), who (as a co-applicant of the ESRC grant) was responsible for the digital resource of the project: http://tvformats.bournemouth.ac.uk. 1 Abstract Television formats have become a major export industry for Britain and the United States (who together account for nearly two thirds of all format hours broadcast annually worldwide). Yet, there is no such thing as a television format right under copyright law. Any producer is free to develop game, reality and talent shows that are based on similar ideas.

  • American Idol: Should It Be a Singing Contest Or a Popularity Contest?**
    American Idol: Should it be a Singing Contest or a Popularity Contest?** J. Atsu Amegashie* Department of Economics University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario Canada N1G 2W1 December 26, 2007 Abstract Using the popular FOX TV reality show, American Idol, this paper makes a contribution to the literatures on the design of contests, the allocation of voting rights in committees, and the desirability of low-powered incentive schemes. In American Idol, the judges, who are presumably experts in evaluating singing effort, have no voting power when the field is narrowed to the top twenty-four contestants. It is only the votes of viewers that count. In the 2007 season of the show, one of the judges, Simon Cowell, threatened to quit the show if a contestant, Sanjaya Malakar, who was clearly a low-ability contestant, won the competition. He was concerned that the show was becoming a popularity contest instead of a singing contest. Is this a problem? Not necessarily. I show that, under certain conditions, making success in the contest dependent on a contestant’s popularity and not solely on her singing ability or performance, could paradoxically increase aggregate singing effort. It may be optimal to give the entire voting power to the viewers whose evaluation of singing effort is noisier. Keywords: American Idol, contests, incentives, tournaments, voting. JEL Classification: D23, D44. **My thanks are due to Ed Kutsoati, Zane Spindler and especially Qiang Fu for helpful comments and to Arian Khaleghi for helpful discussions. My thanks are due to SSHRC for financial support. This paper was previously circulated as CESifo working paper #2171.

CAPlLl Like fabrics, poems can be conceived by weaving with threads into which a very strong twist must be determined. Usually displaying an aura of pastness, each poetic thread is invariably an explicit product of one's autobiographical memory. Many poems are often swathed with chronologes of grief, longng, fear of loss, and a passionate desire to memorialize personal history in a public space. Certainly, evocations of memory have been articulated by way of poetry. But when Andre Breton insists "poetry is a room of marvels," I am even more compelled to conceive each poem not only as a lati- tude of metaphors, ideas, and images with a design and a system. In attempting to write a "good" poem about Algeciras Street, I must also carefully attend to the dramatic unfoldmg of my memories, find ways of interrogating and transfiguring a profound quietude to bring forth what otherwise has evaded consciousness.
