  • If You Take the King's Shilling, You Do the King's Bidding: Funding and Censorship of Public Television Programs
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 395 338 CS 509 239 AUTHOR Drushel, Bruce E. TITLE If You Take the King's Shilling, You Do the King's Bidding: Funding and Censorship of Public Television Programs. PUB DATE Nov 95 NOTE 21p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Speech Communication Association (81st, San Antonio, TX, November 18-24, 1995). PUB TYPE Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) Information Analyses (070) Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Censorship; Conservatism; *Financial Support; *Government Role; Higher Education; Homosexuality; Legislators; Mass Media; *Moral Issues; *Programming (Broadcast); *Public Television IDENTIFIERS Congress; *Controversial Topics; First Amendment; Religious Right ABSTRACT Public broadcasting in the United States frequently draws criticism from conservatives who accuse it of pursuing an agenda promoting environmentalism, gay rights, affirmative action, reproductive choice, and other liberal causes, and of being hostile to conservative interests such as defense, the pro-life effort, and the promotion of Christian values. To date, concerns over censorship in public television have focused, not on overt efforts by Congress to determine the bounds of acceptable programs, but on not-so-subtle pressure at both the national and the local level to self-censor or risk loss of funding. Several recent cases of controversial programs have led to calls for ties between funding of the public television system and program content--programs such as "Tongues Untied," "Portrait of a Marriage," and "Tales of the City." Assessing the constitutionality of possible future efforts by Congress to place content-related conditions on the funding of,public television seems to require that 3 areas of law be analyzed: (1) the current statutory framework in which the public television system operates;(2) the recent case law in the area of the First Amendment and public broadcasting; and (3) relevant overarching judicial principles.

When the founder steps down, a young alum whose life was saved by the drumline rises to mentor the next generation in the face of systemic injustices. SYNOPSIS The critically-acclaimed, audience favorite RIVER CITY DRUMBEAT is an immersive story of music, love, and legacies set in the American South. For three decades, the dynamic Ed “Nardie” White offered a path to empowerment to Black youth in Louisville, Kentucky through his Pan-African community drum corps. When he decides to step down, Albert Shumake, an alum whose life was saved by the drumline, returns home to carry “the spirit of the drum” forward for the next generation. During the year-long changing of the guard, young drummers Imani, Jailen, and Emily navigate the cadences of adolescence even as systemic forces threaten to undermine their dreams. Directors Marlon Johnson and Anne Flatté deliver a vital and insightful tale that shows how art, love and mentors can transform a child’s life.

The highly visual and dynamic film is the definitive chronicle of Lear’s storied career and premiered as the Opening Night selection at the Sundance Film Festival. Norman Lear: Just Another Version of You is the definitive chronicle of Mr. Lear’s life, work, and achievements, but it is so much more than an arm’s-length, past-tense biopic; at 93, Mr. Lear is as vital and engaged as he ever was. Top-notch cinéma vérité documentarians Rachel Grady and Heidi Ewing ( Jesus Camp, 12th and Delaware, Detropia ) seize the opportunity to fashion a dynamic portrait that matches the spirit of their subject. Breaking down the fourth wall to create an evocative collage where past and present intermingle, they reveal a psychologically rich man whose extraordinary contributions emerge from both his personal story and a dialogue with the world.

    CONTENT, COMMUNITY, AND COLLABORATION: ADVANCING CHILDREN'S LEARNING THROUGH PERSONALIZED MEDIA EXPERIENCES A READY TO LEARN TELEVISION GRANT PROPOSAL FROM THE CORPORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING AND THE PUBLIC BROADCASTING SERVICE I. PROJECT OVERVIEW The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) seek a Ready To Learn Television grant (RTL) to create a groundbreaking and comprehensive media initiative that will help to close the achievement gap for young learners from low-income households and contribute meaningful practice and research to the early learning field. Forming powerful collaborations within and across organizations devoted to early learning, media, and community engagement, the Project Team will address both invitational priorities from the Department of Education, producing and delivering comprehensive multi-platform educational media experiences to improve school readiness by focusing on science and literacy learning among low-income children ages 2-8, and combining media assets into dynamic new learning adventures that use embedded analytics and assessments to personalize the learning experience for users and provide meaningful information to parents, caregivers and educators. The Project emphasizes the importance of content, community, and collaboration: the power of adaptive learning experiences, the amplifying effects of family engagement, and the critical role of partnerships to move the needle for children from America’s lowest income communities.

  • Will Broadband TV Shape the Future of Broadcasting?
    BROADBAND TV WillBroadband TV shape the future of broadcasting? Franc Kozamernik EBU Lieven Vermaele VRT Broadband Television (BTV) 1 is a new emerging platform for distributing digital television channels to home consumers using a TV screen. This article focuses on BTV services which use the conventional telephone infra- structure (i.e. twisted-pair copper lines). These BTV services are often called ADSL TV or DSL TV. Other delivery mechanisms such as coaxial cable, power line communications (PLC), fibre (FTTH) and wireless (UMTS, Wi-Fi and WiMAX) are not covered here. If commercially successful, Broadband TV may complement traditional DTV services – which use satellite, cable and terrestrial delivery – and may even evolve into a fourth mass-market platform for digital television services. Many telcom and cable operators are in the process of trialling BTV infrastructure and expecting that it could evolve into the next emerging market of 2005 and beyond. Some initial experiences show that the technology is quite mature, the business models potentially sound and the prospective subscribers enthusiastic. Some market analysts even anticipate explosive growth of the broadband television market. This article attempts to provide some background to BTV developments in Europe and outlines the principal areas of interest such as: (i) the current status of BTV trials, (ii) issues relating to the network and media technologies used, (iii) some content-related issues and, last but not least, (iv) some regulatory matters. Background BTV makes use of a television set rather than a PC. There are multiple commercial reasons for this. First of all, TV sets are much more popular domestic appliances than PCs.
