China Television [Wikipedia text on CTV / Zhōngguó Diànshì Gōngsī ] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_Television China Television CTV building in Taipei City China Television Company, Ltd. (CTV, simplified Chinese: 中国电视 公司; traditional Chinese: 中國電視公司; pinyin: Zhōngguó Diànshì Gōngsī; Pe̍ h-ōe-jī: Tiong-kok-tiān-sī-kong-si) (Formerly called Taiwan Daytime TV (TDT) in 1969- 1975) was established on September 3, 1968 by the then-ruling Nationalist Party of the Republic of China (Taiwan). The party owned the majority stake of the network. Trial broadcast started on October 9, 1969 and the channel formally started broadcasting on October 31 the same year. It was the first television channel to broadcast full colour television service to the whole island. The third version of CTV logo (1980s-October 31, 1997) On August 9, 1999, the channel was publicly listed on Taiwan Stock Exchange, becoming the first publicly listed broadcasting company on the island. In 2006, due to effects borne by the media reform law in Taiwan requiring all political parties to divest their control in radio and television companies, 90% of CTV shares were sold to the China Times media group, effectively giving the station leeway to some of its satellite TV concerns, notably the Chung T'ien Television (CTi), one of major cable television programmers in Taiwan. Some CTV shows are now seen on CTi's two channels on cable. It is currently the largest television channels on the island. Its shows consistently rated 2nd in all major time slots, and is home to Taiwan's most watched early evening newscast, the CTV News Global Report.

Older adults in prime-time television in Taiwan: Prevalence, portrayal, and communication interaction. Journal of Cross Cultural Gerontology, 24, 355- 372. Abstract: A content and thematic analysis of 109 episodes (94.9 hours) of prime-time dramas examined the portrayals of aging and the nature of intergenerational interaction involving older adults on Taiwanese television. The content analysis revealed that older characters, regardless of sex, appeared less frequently and in less prominent roles than other adult characters, but not in comparison to adolescents and children. The older characters who did appear, however, were predominantly portrayed as cognitively sound and physically healthy. The thematic analysis provided a different picture, showing that older characters talked about age explicitly, strategically linking it to death and despondence, to influence younger characters. Communication behavior themes identified included supporting, superiority, and controlling for older characters, and reverence/respect for younger characters. Findings are compared to those from similar studies of U.S. media and discussed from a Cultivation Theory perspective in terms of their reinforcement of Chinese age stereotypes and the traditional values of filial piety and age hierarchy in the context of globalization and culture change.

Results of this study showed that state-owned broadcast television stations were far more likely than privately owned cable television channels to give greater coverage to the ruling party and its candidates, to use ruling party officials as news sources, and to offer more news coverage favorable to the ruling party than to other parties.

  • Taiwanese Media Reform
    Journal of the British Association for Chinese Studies, Vol. 6 December 2016 ISSN 2048-0601 © British Association for Chinese Studies Taiwanese Media Reform Ming-yeh Rawnsley, University of Nottingham James Smyth, Princeton University Jonathan Sullivan, University of Nottingham Introduction Alongside a consolidated liberal democracy and dynamic civil society, Taiwan boasts one of Asia’s most liberal and competitive media environments. With cable TV and internet penetration rates among the highest in the world, and twelve 24/7 local TV news channels serving a population of 23 million, media liberalisation in Taiwan is, like democratisation, a success story. However, the pressures of intense commercial competition have created issues around professional ethics and the effects of sensationalism. Longstanding regulatory and ownership issues remain unresolved, including political partisanship across the media-sphere. Like their counterparts in other democracies, Taiwanese media companies are grappling with the transition to digital and the challenge it represents to traditional business models in a heavily media- saturated society. Mediatised political spectacles, hypermedia political campaigns and communicative abundance are inescapable features of Taiwanese life. The surface vibrancy of Taiwan’s democracy owes much to the trace data produced by the tools of this abundance: the all-news-all-the-time TV channels, politicians’ constant presence on connected devices, student activists mobilising via social media. Taiwanese citizens are by many standards engaged and politically active: they turn out to vote in large numbers, pay attention to the news and are knowledgeable about politics. Yet for all the openness that goes with trailing TV cameras and politicians’ status updates on social media, the media and political communications environments in Taiwan Journal of the British Association for Chinese Studies 67 are a cause for concern in terms of the “quality” of their contribution to Taiwanese democracy.

REFERENCE ORGANIZATION NAME AND ADDRESS Cornell University Center for International Studies Ithaca, New York 14853 8. SU PPL. EM ENT A RY NOT ES (SponsonIng Organlzation, Publishers, A vallability) 9. ABSTRACT This paper has three major sections. The first, Chapter 1, specifies the growth in agricultural production and the changes in welfare of China's rural inhabitants. It considers non-material, psychological factors as well as changes in the material standard of living. The following four chapters constitute a section describing in some detail rural local institutions in China, with an emphasis on the 1962--72 period. Chapter 2 outlines the historical and social developments that led to the foimation of rural people's communes, relating these to the production teams and brigades which comprise the sub-units of a commune, and to the country and national governments above. Chapter 3 explains the division of responsibility, primarily with regard to economic functions, among the component parts of a commune. Chapter 4 describes the management of each level in the commune, including formal distribution or power, managerial per­ sonnel, and financial operation. Chapter 5 focuses on political leadership, which pro­ vides a dynamism and coherence for the rural local institutions. The third major section of this paper is Chapter 6, which examines how the improvements in rural welfare and productivity are related to both central and local institutions.

  • COVID-19 Media Reporting in Taiwan: a Proxy War Over Foreign Relations?
    August 19, 2020 COVID-19 media reporting in Taiwan: A proxy war over foreign relations? Edition 3, 2020 Jasmine Li-Chia Chang DOI: 10.37839/MAR2652-550X3.11 In the months following the global outbreak of COVID-19, the Taiwan government’s handling of the crisis has been widely reported in the international media as exemplary. Foreign media have commended the Taiwan government for what is regarded as its success in halting the spread of the virus. Taiwan’s official figures show less than 500 confirmed cases and less than 10 deaths as of mid-August, a very low number given its population of almost 24-million and close geographical proximity to the Chinese mainland (although testing rates are low). However, within Taiwan, media commentary on the Taiwan government’s handling of the crisis has been far more varied. Some media has reported on the topic in a way that has served to elevate the competency of the recently re-elected Tsai Ing-wen government and emphasise the benefits of its handling of the crisis for Taiwan’s relations with the US and Europe—most notably, Formosa TV, Sanlih E-Television (SET TV) News, Liberty Times and Next TV. In contrast, other media outlets have largely deflected attention from the government’s successes by focusing more on how its management of the crisis has harmed relations with China. This section of the media includes TVBS News, China 1 August 19, 2020 Times, Chung T’ien Television (CTi) News, China Television (CTV) News and Taiwan Television (TTV) News. These differences are bound up with political tensions within Taiwan over its political future and its relationship with China.
