I am writing this article from my hospital bed, where I hope I will be able to tolerate a new medication that will stabilize my heart. In mid-June, I became a stroke expert, having had a brainstem stroke (a pontine infarction, for those readers who are neurogenic communication disorders specialists). I have been dealing with the consequent effects of severe right hemiparesis, which is much better now, mild ataxic dysarthria and mild dysphagia. The two degrees I earned from Brooklyn College have helped me prepare for my current health challenge. At a time when speech therapists worked mostly as sound correctors (we were not trained to be SLPs until the late 1970s), having mentors such as Boyd Sheets, who specialized in aphasia, and Oliver Bloodstein, who specialized and my calculus TA couldn’t solve the problems in stuttering, inspired my future work and have that my professor assigned.

  • HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
    1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007.
