  • Siren Songs Or Path to Salvation? Interpreting the Visions of Web Technology at 1 a UK Regional Newspaper in Crisis, 2006-11
    Siren songs or path to salvation? Interpreting the visions of web technology at 1 a UK regional newspaper in crisis, 2006-11 Abstract A five-year case study of an established regional newspaper in Britain investigates journalists about their perceptions of convergence in digital technologies. This research is the first ethnographic longitudinal case study of a UK regional newspaper. Although conforming to some trends observed in the wider field of scholarship, the analysis adds to skepticism about any linear or directional views of innovation and adoption: the Northern Echo newspaper journalists were observed to have revised their opinions of optimum web practices, and sometimes radically reversed policies. Technology is seen in the period as a fluid, amorphous entity. Central corporate authority appeared to diminish in the period as part of a wider reduction in formalism. Questioning functionalist notions of the market, the study suggests cause and effect models of change are often subverted by contradictory perceptions of particular actions. Meanwhile, during technological evolution the ‘professional imagination’ can be understood as strongly reflecting the parent print culture and its routines, despite a pioneering a new convergence partnership with an independent television company. Keywords: Online news, adoption, internet, multimedia, technology, news culture, convergence Introduction The regional press in the UK is often depicted as being in a state of acute crisis. Its print circulations are falling faster than ever, staff numbers are being reduced, and the market- driven financial structure is undergoing deep instability. The newspapers’ social value is often argued to lie in their democratic potential, and even if this aspiration is seldom fully realized in practice, their loss, transformation or disintegration would be a matter of considerable concern.

  • Q102.9FM (Londonderry)
    Section 355 Review of Output: Q102.9FM (Londonderry) When a local commercial radio licence undergoes a change of control (this includes licence transfer), Ofcom is required, under section 355 of the Communications Act 2003 (the Act), to undertake a review of the effects or likely effects of the change of control in relation to: • the quality and range of programmes included in the service; • the character of the service, and; • the extent to which Ofcom’s duty under section 314 of the Act is performed in relation to the service. Ofcom’s duty under section 314 of the Act relates to securing the inclusion of an appropriate amount of local material, and a suitable proportion of locally-made programmes in the service. Under section 356 of the Act, where it appears to Ofcom from its review that the change of control would be prejudicial to any of the three matters listed above, then it must vary the licence, by including such conditions as it considers appropriate, with a view to ensuring that the relevant change of control is not so prejudicial. In doing so, any new or varied conditions must be such that the licence holder would have satisfied them throughout the three months immediately before the change of control. Ofcom is required to publish a report of its review, setting out its conclusions and any steps it proposes to take under section 356. Where Ofcom proposes to vary the licence, it is required to give the licence holder a reasonable opportunity to make representations about the variation. On 4 December 2014, a change of control took place at Northern Media Group Limited (NMGL) which held the local commercial FM licence for the Londonderry area (AL155).
