    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 16_A70_TV_Acad_Ad.qxp_Layout 1 7/8/16 11:43 AM Page 1 PROUD MEMBER OF »CBS THE TELEVISION ACADEMY 2 ©2016 CBS Broadcasting Inc. MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AS THE QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF CONTENT HAVE INCREASED in what is widely regarded as television’s second Golden Age, so have employment opportunities for the talented men and women who create that programming. And as our industry, and the content we produce, have become more relevant, so has the relevance of the Television Academy increased as an essential resource for television professionals. In 2015, this was reflected in the steady rise in our membership — surpassing 20,000 for the first time in our history — as well as the expanding slate of Academy-sponsored activities and the heightened attention paid to such high-profile events as the Television Academy Honors and, of course, the Creative Arts Awards and the Emmy Awards. Navigating an industry in the midst of such profound change is both exciting and, at times, a bit daunting. Reimagined models of production and distribution — along with technological innovations and the emergence of new over-the-top platforms — have led to a seemingly endless surge of creativity, and an array of viewing options. As the leading membership organization for television professionals and home to the industry’s most prestigious award, the Academy is committed to remaining at the vanguard of all aspects of television. Toward that end, we are always evaluating our own practices in order to stay ahead of industry changes, and we are proud to guide the conversation for television’s future generations.

  • High Cost, Prime Time, Syndicated Programming" As a Condition of the Video Program Marketplace Requiring Correction
    high cost, prime time, syndicated programming" as a condition of the video program marketplace requiring correction. The market circumstances that the Commission identified as "propelling [it] to action" in 1970 have now been entirely reversed. From 1975 to 1990 the number of independent commercial stations in the United states more than tripled, reaching a total of 380. 83 / This growth reflected a new vitality for the UHF band. As UHF independent stations became serious competitors in market after market, the number of UHF stations nearly tripled also, reaching a total of 546. 84 / Today, roughly 35 percent of all commercial television stations are independents. As a result, by 1990, 93.9 percent of television households received five or more television stations over the air, and more than half were able to receive ten or more stations. Television homes in the top 50 markets are almost always served by at least one, and often by several, independent stations. 85/ 83/ opp Working Paper at 15. 84/ La. at 15-16. 85/ Id. at 16. 0593i - 70 - The proliferation of independent stations, combined with the non-network time traditionally available on network-affiliated stations, has resulted in an exponential growth in the amount or air time open to all syndicated programming. The contribution of the PTAR rule has been modest. In 1980, ten years into the rule's existence, annual revenues for the syndication market totalled only $50 million. During the 1980's, as the number of independent stations mushroomed, a corresponding growth occurred In syndication revenues, reaching $1.2 billion annually by 1990.

  • Corporate Media Is Corporate America
    C2006_text-1.qxd 7/20/05 1:34 PM Page 253 CHAPTER 6 Corporate Media Is Corporate America BIG MEDIA INTERLOCKS WITH CORPORATE AMERICA AND BROADCAST NEWS MEDIA OWNERSHIP EMPIRES By Bridget Thornton, Brit Walters, and Lori Rouse The Project Censored team researched the board members of 10 major media organizations from newspaper to television to radio. Of these ten orga- nizations, we found there are 118 people who sit on 288 different Ameri- can and international corporate boards proving a close on-going interlock between big media and corporate America. We found media directors who also were former Senators or Representatives in the House such as Sam Nunn (Disney) and William Cohen (Viacom). Board members served at the FCC such as William Kennard (New York Times) and Dennis FitzSimmons (Tribune Company) showing revolving door relationships with big media andU.S. government officials. These ten big media organizations are the main source of news for most Americans. Their corporate ties require us to continually scrutinize the qual- ity of their news for bias. Disney owns ABC so we wonder how the board of Disney reacts to negative news about their board of directors friends such as Halliburton or Boeing. We see board members with connections to Ford, Kraft, and Kimberly-Clark who employ tens of thousands of Americans.
