  • And Other Federal Rules Affecting Programmer-Distributor Negotiations
    Order Code RL34079 A Condensed Review of Retransmission Consent and Other Federal Rules Affecting Programmer- Distributor Negotiations July 9, 2007 Charles B. Goldfarb Specialist in Industrial Organization and Telecommunications Policy Resources, Science, and Industry Division A Condensed Review of Retransmission Consent and Other Federal Rules Affecting Programmer-Distributor Negotiations Summary When conflicts arise between a programmer (a broadcaster or a cable network owner) and a multichannel video programming distributor (MVPD, usually a cable or satellite operator) about the carriage of particular video programming, the price for that programming, or the tier on which the programming is to be offered to the end user, many consumers can be affected. Recently there have been several incidents in which a negotiating impasse between a programmer and a distributor has resulted in the programmer refusing to allow the MVPD to carry, or the MVPD choosing not to carry, a program network. While contractual terms, conditions, and rates are determined by private negotiations, they are strongly affected by a number of federal statutory provisions and regulatory requirements, including the statutory retransmission consent and must-carry rules, the FCC program exclusivity rules, local-into-local and distant signal provisions in satellite laws, copyright law provisions relating to cable and satellite, statutory commercial leased access requirements and program carriage and nondiscriminatory access provisions, and the FCC’s media ownership rules.

  • The History of Educational Media
    1 CHAPTER I GIDDY PROPHESIES AND COMMERCIAL VENTURES: THE HISTORY OF EDUCATIONAL MEDIA The motion picture is destined to revolutionize our educational system and…in a few years it will supplant largely, if not entirely, the use of textbooks. —Thomas Edison, 1922 Wedded to a deep identification with both science and religion, technology is the center of [American] civic life, the one unquestioned good, before which we both worship in awe and collapse in fear…Our national storytelling is, to an unusual extent, embedded in the history of technology. —James Carey, 1997. Technology has a special place in American culture. It is ineluctably wedded to the American philosophy of progress and we romanticize its capabilities. We trust that scientific achievements will make the world a better and safer place (Robins & Webster, 1999). Our faith in technology has certainly been prevalent in the social sphere of education. Since the turn of the 20th century and the development of communication technology, educational literature and the popular press have been filled with visions of technology-laden schools and giddy prophesies of how the latest medium will improve learning across the educational spectrum. As educational historians have noted, each new technology introduced into schools spurred an enormous amount of enthusiasm among educators, administrators, and technology advocates (e.g., Cuban, 1986). The use of Victrolas, film projectors, radios, televisions, cassette recorders, video, computers, CD-ROMs, and the internet have all been presumed to rejuvenate and/or reform education. Not surprisingly, the hopeful discourses for each medium throughout this “Age of Information” are so similar that predictions for one educational technology can easily be substituted for another.
