  • Putting the Geo in Media Studies Reviewed By: Les Roberts
    Published online in European Journal of Communication, 16 Nov 2018 https://doi.org/10.1177/0267323118811690 “The news where you are”: putting the geo in media studies Christopher Ali Media Localism: The Policies of Place, University of Illinois Press: Urbana, Chicago, Springfield, 2017; 272 pp.: £18.99. ISBN: 9780252082238 Karin Fast, André Jansson, Johan Lindell, Linda Ryan Bengtsson, Mekonnen Tesfahuney (eds.) Geomedia Studies: Spaces and Mobilities in Mediatized Worlds, Routledge: New York, London, 2017; 288 pp.: £110.00. ISBN: 9781138221529 Reviewed by: Les Roberts, University of Liverpool At the end of BBC television’s national news programme, the newsreader signs off, with ritual precision, by handing over to the regional news services with the words ‘…and now the news from where you are’. Where am I, tell me? I’m wont to ask on such occasions, looking to secure some sense of local and regional belonging as mirrored back through my television screen. On then trundles BBC North West Tonight which, between the moments of inane (and no less ritualistic) banter that the presenting team insist on sharing, covers news events in Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cumbria, as well as parts of Derbyshire and Yorkshire. So this is where I am: an imagined community that is magically conjured up by the necessarily loose regional descriptor ‘North West’. Yet, geographically at least, I do not live in the North West, I live just across the English-Welsh border in North Wales, a few miles from the English city of Chester. In a post-analogue television landscape where the direction my television aerial is pointed in no longer so narrowly determines what is beamed into my living room, I could easily opt to change my default regional news setting to BBC Wales Today: another imagined media community in which otherwise quite disparate localities – from my home county of Flintshire in North East Wales all the way down to Cardiff or Swansea in the south west – are corralled into a similar geographic container in which news is transacted ‘where you are’.

Introduction 2. An economic review of the extent to which the BBC crowds out private sector activity 3. The role of the BBC in supporting economic growth October 2015 BBC Trust Technical Annex B: Market Impact Introduction The Government’s Green Paper raised two questions about the market impact of the BBC. In particular it asked where evidence suggested that the BBC has a positive or negative wider impact on the market and it asked whether the BBC was crowding out commercial competition. The BBC Trust commissioned KPMG to conduct independent analysis in order to provide evidence about the BBC’s market impact in relation to the two questions raised. The independent analysis, carried out by KMPG, is published in two reports, each setting out the detailed methodology and assumptions used. The first report looks at whether the BBC is crowding out commercial competition. In particular, it examines three areas where there have been some accusations that the BBC does ‘crowd out’ competition – namely news and entertainment on TV and more widely in local news. The KPMG analysis has used historical data and econometrics to study how variations in BBC activities have affected commercial competitors. In particular, it tested whether the BBC’s news and entertainment on TV and the BBC’s local news have affected commercial competitors’ ability to gain audience, increase revenues and increase content expenditure.
