Copyright 2005 Los Angeles Times All Rights Reserved Los Angeles Times May 29, 2005 Sunday Home Edition SECTION: SUNDAY CALENDAR; Calendar Desk; Part E; Pg. 17 LENGTH: 1305 words HEADLINE: MEDIA MATTERS / DAVID SHAW; There's a 'nuclear option' for PBS' woes as well BYLINE: DAVID SHAW BODY: The growing controversy over the Bush administration's attempts to replace what it sees as a "liberal bias" in PBS programming with what would appear to be "conservative bias" has forced me to think the unthinkable -- or at least the heretical, certainly in my cultural/ideological circle: Do we really want or need PBS anymore? I am not defending the Bush administration's assault on PBS, which is as appalling as it is predicable, nor do I mean to denigrate the fine, often brilliant work PBS has done through the years -- "Masterpiece Theater," "Firing Line," "Bill Moyers' Journal," Ken Burns' epic documentaries on the Civil War, baseball and jazz, among many others. But when the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the parent of PBS, was created by the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967, we lived in a television world largely limited to three commercial networks, a world quite accurately characterized as a "vast wasteland" by Newton Minow, then chairman of the FCC. We now live in a cable world, a "500-channel universe," and while I would not argue that many of these cable offerings match PBS at its best, they (and Fox) do provide many alternatives to the three original networks we had in 1967.

  • Broadcast Journalism: What's Missing
    “Broadcast Journalism: What’s Missing? Joan Konner Cosmopolitan Club New York City February 24, 1987 1 Thank you for inviting me. I’ve attended these luncheons and I’ve seen your lineup of guests. They’ve been top caliber. I’m flattered to be among them. I’m what you call a behind-the-scenes person in television. I like that. I have a lot to say about what’s on the screen. Then the on-camera people have to take the rap for it. I don’t mind giving away the credit as long as I don’t have to take the blame…in public. When I received the invitation to speak and was asked to think about what I’d like to talk about, I easily picked this subject. It’s one of my favorites. Broadcast journalism: what’s missing? I talk about it very easily, all the time. In fact, all of us in the business do. Broadcast journalism is everybody’s favorite punching bag, especially broadcast journalists. Not only are we the most self-congratulatory business with all our industry awards, we’re also the most self-flagellating. As if we’re trying to beat others to the punch. Broadcast journalism is an easy target. There it is out there everyday, telling us about ourselves, but as often as not, we don’t recognize the picture: that’s not our world, say the critics who review it. Not our world, say the public figures who appear on it in ninety second clips. Not our world, says the public who watches it.

  • Media Coverage Summary
    PRESS HIGHLIGHTS UNNATURAL CAUSES won extensive media coverage and was hailed by the press as a fresh and invaluable contribution to the national dialogue on health. USA Today called the series “riveting.” On The Today Show Matt Lauer called it “disturbing [and] startling,” adding, “Hopefully it will get a lot of people asking serious questions.” Newsweek noted that the series “offers plenty of background…but the film’s power comes not from experts or statistics but stories of real people.” The New York Daily News described it as “instructive, informative, depressing, and occasionally infuriating,” while the Louisville Courier-Journal called it “amazing…a real-life CSI investigation.” The NPR radio shows Tell Me More and News & Notes ran extended segments, as did other syndicated public radio shows such as Living on Earth and Forum . Many AM talk radio shows, such as The Thom Hartman Show , ran interviews with the series producers and advisors. Five PBS stations ran companion local shows with outreach partners: Columbus (WOSU), Kentucky (KET), Santa Rosa, CA (KRCB), Pittsburgh (WGBH), and Kansas City (KCPT). A follow-up piece produced by Bill Moyers Journal is awaiting air. Outreach partners organized launch events and some even released companion reports, generating additional coverage in many local TV newscasts and newspapers, including three front-page stories. For example, Alameda County (CA) Public Health Department released a report titled “Life and Death from Unnatural Causes” during the broadcast. The report (and the series) received front-page, above-the-fold coverage in all three major San Francisco Bay Area daily newspapers: the San Francisco Chronicle , Oakland Tribune , and San Jose Mercury News .

  • National Media Reform Conference Minneapolis, MN June 7
    National Media Reform Conference Minneapolis, MN June 7, 2008 Prepared Remarks by Bill Moyers Here we are again. And our numbers are growing. We were 1700 in Madison four years ago, 2500 in St. Louis a year later, 3200 in Memphis last year. And now here in St. Paul we are 3500 – and counting. You represent millions of Americans who see media consolidation as a corrosive social force. It robs them of their voice in public affairs, pollutes the political culture, and turns the debate over profound issues into a shouting match of polarized views promulgated by partisan apologists who trivialize democracy while refusing to speak the truth about how our country is being plundered. The patriarch of your movement warned a generation ago of what was coming. In his magisterial book Media Monopoly Ben Bagdikian wrote: “The result of the overwhelming power of relatively narrow corporate ideologies has been the creation of widely established political and economic illusions with little visible contradictions in the media to which a majority of the population is exclusively exposed.” In other words, what we need to know to make democracy work for all Americans is compromised by media institutions deeply embedded in the power structures of society. Whether employing professional journalists trained at prestigious universities, or polemicists who serve partisan agendas, our dominant media are ultimately accountable only to corporate boards whose mission is not “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” for the whole body of our republic, but the aggrandizement of corporate executives and shareholders; organizations whose self-styled mandate is not holding public and private power accountable so there is an equilibrium in society, but aggregating their interlocking interests; organizations whose reward comes from the manufacturing of news and information as profitable consumer commodities rather than the means to empower morally responsible citizens.
