  • THE GATEKEEPING of INTERNATIONAL NEWS at Safm
    Make your own notes. NEVER underline or write in a book. SELECTING STORIES TO TELL: THE GATEKEEPING OF INTERNATIONAL NEWS AT SAfm A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Arts in JOURNALISM AND MEDIA STUDIES of RHODES UNIVERSITY by ABEL AKARA TICHA Supervisors: Robert Brand and Prof Guy Berger June 2006 Abstract The premise of this thesis is that the selection of international news to be aired on the bulletins of SAfm by SABC Radio News staff is influenced by more complex factors than could be seen solely from the prism of an empirical journalistic paradigm. Drawing from data obtained through participant observation and interviewing, it is noted that there has been a revolution from a propagandist approach during apartheid to a professional approach following the demise of apartheid, in the selection of international news for bulletins on SAfm. Using Lewin's theory of forces in decision making and locating it within four out of five levels of a framework of gatekeeping analysis provided by Shoemaker (1991) and Shoemaker et al (200 I), it is concluded that the delimiting well-tested routines of newsmaking act as powerful companions of individuals' selection decisions of international news broadcast on SAfm's bulletins. However, these routines are adapted to meet the organisational demands of the SABC, which as a Public Service Broadcaster (PBS) has embraced the discourse of South African nationalism/pan­ Africanism, as a major philosophy underpinning the Corporation's coverage of the world. Therefore, some individual, routine and organisational factors influencing the se lection of international news broadcast on SAfm's bulletins, are predetermined and co-determined by the social system (the ideological/discursive structure), which is promoted by certain social institutions.

  • Commercial Radio Stations in the Five Digital Radio Metropolitan Markets of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth
    MEDIA RELEASE 19 April 2010 New Mother's Day ads for digital radio A new series of radio and online advertisements promoting digital radio as the perfect gift for Mother’s Day begin this week, across 42 commercial radio stations in the five digital radio metropolitan markets of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. The six new radio ads form the next phase of Commercial Radio Australia’s (CRA) digital radio awareness campaign and begin on Monday 19 April running on high rotation for three weeks in the lead up to Mother’s Day on Sunday, 9 May. Commercial Radio Australia chief executive officer, Joan Warner said recently released digital radio research** commission by CRA showed 63% of Australians were aware digital radio had launched in Australia and 69% would buy a digital radio for all the new features. “The aim of these new ads is to target the 40% of people that in our research said they would buy a digital radio in the next 12 months by highlighting three of the digital radio features; new DAB+ only programming, sound quality and the pause and rewind feature available on some digital radios,” said Ms Warner. The ads were written by the award winning radio specialist agency, Eardrum. Creative director Ralph van Dijk said: “Radio is a great medium for demonstrating a product's relevance to a specific audience. We made sure we focused on the benefits of digital radio, not the functions." In addition to the ad campaign a DVD showcasing the new DAB+ only stations and point of sale signage featuring logos of the new services will be sent to all retail stores stocking digital radios.

    Digital Radio Report 2011 Digital Radio Industry Report 2011 Index Introduction 3 2010 In Review 6 Listening 10 Consumer Research 16 Market Data 21 Digital Uptake Forecast 22 Priorities for the Future 23 Report Sources 26 2 Digital Radio Industry Report 2011 Introduction The Digital Radio Industry Report 2011 is designed to provide a comprehensive status report on the rollout of DAB+ digital radio in Australia including updates on sales, listening and consumer research. The report compiled by Commercial Radio Australia (CRA) provides the only comprehensive collection of official data and consumer research results relating to digital radio in Australia. DAB+ Digital Radio Services High power permanent DAB+ digital radio services commenced in the major metropolitan markets of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth in August 2009 and have now been on air for 18 months. The coverage of the 5 major cities equates to coverage of almost 60% of the population of Australia. Low power regional DAB+ trials began in July 2010 in Canberra and in August 2010 in Darwin. In the metropolitan markets, up to 20 new DAB+ only stations are on air in each market. In addition, in the past 18 months, 13 extra short-term "pop-up" or event focused stations have been created. While new content is extremely important to encourage uptake of digital, radio stations also broadcast their analogue stations on DAB+ to ensure that listeners can access the content, shows and on-air personalities they already know and love on analogue via high quality DAB+ digital technology. Receivers There are now more than 80 different models of DAB+ radios on sale in Australia across 700 retail and online stores produced by 30 different receiver manufacturers.
