As of today, seven Discovery channels are scheduled to go dark on 30 June, with the newly acquired four-channel Scripps bouquet headed into the abyss at the end of August. Discovery says it has already been for- mally notified by StarHub that its channels are not being renewed. In a response this morning, StarHub didn’t mention any formal notice, saying only that “we are in renewal negotia- tions... and we are doing everything pos- sible to arrive at a deal which would allow Discovery and StarHub to continue our partnership while offering our customers the same content at a reasonable price”. StarHub isn’t coming into this public fight with no firepower, saying it is acquiring fresh content to replace Discovery “in the event that negotiations prove unsuc- cessful”. Several new channels are in the works “to ensure our customers will continue to enjoy access to a good range of educa- tion and lifestyle channels,” StarHub says.

  • Bab 2 Industri Dan Regulasi Penyiaran Di Indonesia
    BAB 2 INDUSTRI DAN REGULASI PENYIARAN DI INDONESIA 2.1. Lembaga Penyiaran di Indonesia Dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, istilah lembaga penyiaran seringkali dianggap sama artinya dengan istilah stasiun penyiaran. Menurut Peraturan Menkominfo No 43 Tahun 2009, yang ditetapkan 19 Oktober 2009, lembaga penyiaran adalah penyelenggara penyiaran, baik Lembaga Penyiaran Publik, Lembaga Penyiaran Swasta, Lembaga Penyiaran Komunitas, maupun Lembaga Penyiaran Berlangganan yang dalam melaksanakan tugas, fungsi dan tanggungjawabnya berpedoman pada peraturan perundangan yang berlaku. Jika ditafsirkan, lembaga penyiaran adalah salah satu elemen dalam dunia atau sistem penyiaran. Dengan demikian walau lembaga penyiaran bisa dilihat sebagai segala kegiatan yang berhubungan dengan pemancarluasan siaran saja, namun secara implisit ia merupakan keseluruhan yang utuh dari lembaga-lembaga penyiaran (sebagai lembaga yang memiliki para pendiri, tujuan pendiriannya/visi dan misi, pengelola, perlengkapan fisik), dengan kegiatan operasional dalam menjalankan tujuan-tujuan penyiaran, serta tatanan nilai, dan peraturan dengan perangkat-perangkat regulatornya. Sedangkan stasiun penyiaran adalah tempat di mana program acara diproduksi/diolah untuk dipancarluaskan melalui sarana pemancaran dan/atau sarana transmisi di darat, laut atau antariksa dengan menggunakan spektrum frekuensi radio melalui udara, kabel, dan/atau media lainnya untuk dapat diterima secara serentak dan bersamaan oleh masyarakat dengan perangkat penerima siaran.

  • The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
    THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Media Memiliki Fungsi Dan Disfungsi Tersendiri Bagi Khalayaknya. Khalayak Secara Sadar
    BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Media memiliki fungsi dan disfungsi tersendiri bagi khalayaknya. Khalayak secara sadar memilih media mana yang sesuai dengan keinginan dan kebutuhannya. Media massa adalah alat-alat dalam komunikasi yang bisa menyebarkan pesan secara serempak, cepat kepada audiens yang luas dan heterogen. Istilah “media massa” memberikan gambaran mengenai alat komunikasi yang bekerja dalam berbagai skala terbatas hingga dapat mencapai dan melibatkan siapa saja dalam masyarakat dalam skala yang sangat luas. Istilah media massa mengacu kepada sejumlah media yang telah ada sejak puluhan tahun yang lalu dan tetap digunakan hingga saat ini seperti surat kabar, majalah, film, radio, televisi, dan internet (Morissan, 2013:479). Kelebihan media massa dibanding dengan jenis komunikasi lain adalah ia bisa mengatasi hambatan ruang dan waktu. Bahkan media massa mampu menyebarkan pesan hampir seketika pada waktu yang tak terbatas (Nurudin, 2007). Media massa televisi merupakan suatu sarana yang sangat efektif dalam mempengaruhi pola pikir manusia karena televisi merupakan sebuah media yang sudah tidak asing lagi. Hampir disetiap rumah ada televisi. Sehingga televisi sebagai media komunikasi memiliki kemampuan untuk mengakses publik hingga ke ruang pribadi. Televisi merupakan hasil produk teknologi tinggi (hi-tech) yang menyampaikan isi pesan dalam bentuk audiovisual gerak. Isi pesan audiovisual gerak memiliki kekuatan yang sangat tinggi untuk mempengaruhi mental, pola 1 pikir, dan tindak individu. Televisi adalah media audio visual yaitu sebuah media yang tidak hanya bisa didengar saja tetapi juga bisa dilihat gambarnya. Pesatnya perkembangan televisi di Indonesia membuat banyaknya stasiun televisi yang menyuguhkan acara-acara menghibur di kala santai. Belakangan ini sering kita jumpai di berbagai stasiun televisi banyak yang menyajikan tayangan talkshow, magazine show dan acara reality show yang disajikan dengan beragam tema dan tampilan.
