  • Media Nations 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS How Do UK Newspapers
    LONDONGRAD IN THE UK QUALITY PRESS: A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS How do UK newspapers employ the term Londongrad and how has this changed over time and between different newspapers? by Ben Dukes s1424181 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Russian and Eurasian Studies at Leiden University (Universiteit Leiden) June 2015 1 Abstract This thesis examines the use of the word Londongrad in four British national newspapers and draws extensively upon the approach to Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) outlined by Richardson [2007]. The study compares the use of Londongrad in a sample of articles from two time periods: 2005-8 and 2011-14, defining how it is used and how its use has changed over time, with reference to wider social, political and cultural contexts. Results indicate that Londongrad is particularly prevalent in the right-wing press, and that its use has become more prominent over time. The thesis puts forward the argument that Londongrad lacks concrete definition but carries implicit meaning that allows for the reinforcement of negative stereotypes with regard to Russian activity in the UK. In highlighting this, the intention is to draw attention to the way in which patterns of discourse can encode prejudice. 2 Contents i. Introduction 5 ii. Outline of Chapters 6 1.

  • Reach PLC Summary Response to the Digital Markets Taskforce Call for Evidence
    Reach PLC summary response to the Digital Markets Taskforce call for evidence Introduction Reach PLC is the largest national and regional news publisher in the UK, with influential and iconic brands such as the Daily Mirror, Daily Express, Sunday People, Daily Record, Daily Star, OK! and market leading regional titles including the Manchester Evening News, Liverpool Echo, Birmingham Mail and Bristol Post. Our network of over 70 websites provides 24/7 coverage of news, sport and showbiz stories, with over one billion views every month. Last year we sold 620 million newspapers, and we over 41 million people every month visit our websites – more than any other newspaper publisher in the UK. Changes to the Reach business Earlier this month we announced changes to the structure of our organisation to protect our news titles. This included plans to reduce our workforce from its current level of 4,700 by around 550 roles, gearing our cost base to the new market conditions resulting from the pandemic. These plans are still in consultation but are likely to result in the loss of over 300 journalist roles within the Reach business across national, regional and local titles. Reach accepts that consumers will continue to shift to its digital products, and digital growth is central to our future strategy. However, our ability to monetise our leading audience is significantly impacted by the domination of the advertising market by the leading tech platforms. Moreover, as a publisher of scale with a presence across national, regional and local markets, we have an ability to adapt and achieve efficiencies in the new market conditions that smaller local publishers do not.

  • Culture Wars in the Media
    Culture Wars in the Media Mr Dean, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your kind introduction and your invitation to join such an august line of guest speakers. What a pleasure it is to be here this evening, though it is a pleasure tinged with trepidation. I worry that those who work in the media have quite enough opportunity to be heard without being granted this storied platform further to inflict their views on others. I’m conscious – as we meet here this evening in a forum of ethical discussion - that journalists tend to rush for the story rather than pause too long to consider its ramifications. And, amid this accelerated news cycle, I am slightly worried that we may be losing another prime minister as we sit here. But as I stared at the big quote in a Guardian article, I was reminded that there is a conversation that needs to be addressed. “I’ve given up watching the news,” said a 60-something man in the Guardian piece. “It’s all lies.” Oh, come on. Given up? Really? Stopped when we have moved from all that theoretical stuff to pure theatrical drama? Stopped in the middle of the fallout from the Supreme Court decision. Stopped with a beleaguered prime minister on both the wrong side of the Atlantic and the wrong side of the law? We’ve always had room for different interpretations of the news. A divergence of political view is manifest in the reaction to almost every news story. Observers have always interpreted things in accordance with their underlying philosophy.
