  • By Placing Its Thumb on the Scale of Competition, the Commission by This
    ....@-- by placing its thumb on the scale of competition, the Commission by this Rule has distorted and restricted competition in other ways affecting pro­ gram producers, syndicators, independent stations, new networks, and network affiliates. The Rule has come to be seen largely as a measure to promote the fortunes of independent and UHF stations. The evidence shows that today many independent stations are more profitable than affiliates. Further, UHF affil­ iates of ABC, CBS and NBC are victims of the Rule, yet on average are fi­ nancially weaker than UHF independents, intended beneficiaries of the Rule. Furthermore, any "handicapII affecting independent UHF stations in the past has been reduced or eliminated, due to forces other than PTAR. The economic costs, penalties, restrictions and consumer harms caused by PTAR cannot be justified by an increase in diversity, because PTAR has not increased diversity. The number of outlets for local broadcast programming is unchanged by the Rule. The number of sources of programming avail­ able to those outlets is reduced by the terms of the Rule. There is no basis to believe that the Rule enhances the diversity of prime-time broadcast program content (or the variety of viewpoints), and there are some reasons to believe that diversity has been reduced. In any event, the flowering of new media alternatives makes irrelevant whatever marginal change in broadcast network affiliate content diversity, if any, can be attributed to the Rule.

  • Strategic Priorities for FY2009 Business Plan
    MCH Regulatory Review TVNZ Submission April 2008 Contents • PART 1: Executive Summary 2 • PART 2: Terminology 7 • PART 3: Context – Value of Public Service Broadcasting 10 – The Need for Marketplace Rules 24 • PART 4: Regulatory Review – Approach 36 – Environment 38 – Cross-Value Chain Issues 43 – Content Issues 51 – Distribution Issues 58 – Network Issues 65 TVNZ Submission: MCH Regulatory Review April 2008 2 Executive Summary • Public service broadcasting is important in order to ensure: the continued visibility and impact of local and public service content; plurality of voices in the media; and independence in an increasingly globalised world. TVNZ has a specific role to play as the Public Service Broadcaster to deliver Charter content and bring New Zealand to New Zealanders • New Zealanders value the principles of public service broadcasting as set out in TVNZ’s Charter. However, public service broadcasting in New Zealand does not receive stable, long-term funding • New Zealand has paid little attention to the broadcasting and media competitive environment. The lack of marketplace rules is not working for the existing broadcasting market, let alone converging markets • The lack of marketplace rules means that SKY has had the freedom to develop a business model in New Zealand not seen in other countries. SKY has been able to develop a vertically integrated business with the potential to exert considerable market power. That lack of marketplace rules and dominance by one player could lead to a lack of media diversity in New Zealand • Significant change is required across a number of areas identified by MCH. Marketplace rules are required in order to create a fair and level playing field for all participants.

  • RCED-99-136 Telecommunications: Impact of Sports Programming
    United States General Accounting Office Report to the GAO Byron L. Dorgan,Honorable U. S. Senate June 1999 TELECOMMUNICATIONS Impact of Sports Programming Costs on Cable Television Rates |~Accountabllity * Integrity * Reliability GAO/RCED-99-136 United States General Accounting Office Washington, D.C. 20548 Resources, Community, and Economic Development Division B-280705 June 22, 1999 The Honorable Byron L. Dorgan United States Senate Dear Senator Dorgan: The rates that subscribers pay to receive cable television in the United States have increased at several times the general rate of inflation over the last few years. Cable operators have attributed these increases to inflation; programming costs; system upgrades, including increases in the number of channels; and other factors. However, some cable operators have attributed increases to the cost of acquiring sports programming, in particular. In terms of viewership, sports programming is among the highest-rated programming on cable television. This report responds to your request that we provide information on the role that sports programming played in recent increases in cable rates. Specifically, you asked us to provide information on (1) the extent to which sports programming costs are contributing to higher cable television rates; (2) how prices paid for sports programming differ for small and large cable operators; (3) the extent to which sports programmers require cable operators to bundle (i.e., combine) sports programming with other cable programming and how this practice affects cable rates; and (4) whether the salaries of players in major professional sports have risen over the last 4 years, and if so, whether this has contributed to increases in cable rates.

The march, which began at Guy Wicks Field, took marchers on a winding tour of campus, lead by Safety Task Force Chair Angela Rauch and Vice-Chair Rhonda Anderson.

We need to increase awareness and help victims of these types of violent crimes to gain the courage to . speak out and get help," Anderson said. z'4w" 4. During the march a whistle was blown every 15 seconds, signifying the statistic of one woman battered in the United States every 15 ~A'!. seconds. Similarly, each minute a bell was rung, signifying the rape of one woman. The march ended on the steps of the Administration Building where poetry, written by victims, was read and family members and survivors spoke about loss and hope. The mes- t. sage alw'ays: "Fight back, it's not your fault, get help, you'e not alone" was heard as encourage- ment from the victims and their families.
