  • Centre for the Study of Media and Culture in Small Nations, University of Glamorgan
    Media 06 Task and Finish Group on the future outlook for the media in Wales Response from Centre for the Study of Media and Culture in Small Nations, University of Glamorgan October 2011 The Centre thanks the Communities, Equality and Local Government Committee for the opportunity to present evidence to the task and finish group on the current state of the media in Wales. As an overarching comment from the Centre’s own research perspective there is more to learn from the variety of small national contexts that exist across the globe, particularly those with successful media landscapes. Whilst this is not itself a new idea, the urgency with which Wales needs to face the challenges to its media sector makes the necessity of learning from success even more vital. The Centre has therefore produced a short briefing paper on The Media in Europe’s Small Nations as supplementary written evidence for the task and finish group (see appendix). This paper examines how other small European nations have tried to develop their own media in a globalised world and considers some of the lessons for Wales. As well as the need to address the needs of the Welsh audience and by extension Welsh democracy and citizenship, the Welsh media also has a vital role to play in representing Wales to the world with all the attendant considerations of confidence and the attraction of inward investment and tourism. The ‘Doctor Who’ effect is a glittering example, but there needs to be more and for sustainability to be built in to any initiative.

  • Social and Cultural Functions of the Local Press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900
    Reading the local paper: Social and cultural functions of the local press in Preston, Lancashire, 1855-1900 by Andrew Hobbs A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire November 2010 ABSTRACT This thesis demonstrates that the most popular periodical genre of the second half of the nineteenth century was the provincial newspaper. Using evidence from news rooms, libraries, the trade press and oral history, it argues that the majority of readers (particularly working-class readers) preferred the local press, because of its faster delivery of news, and because of its local and localised content. Building on the work of Law and Potter, the thesis treats the provincial press as a national network and a national system, a structure which enabled it to offer a more effective news distribution service than metropolitan papers. Taking the town of Preston, Lancashire, as a case study, this thesis provides some background to the most popular local publications of the period, and uses the diaries of Preston journalist Anthony Hewitson as a case study of the career of a local reporter, editor and proprietor. Three examples of how the local press consciously promoted local identity are discussed: Hewitson’s remoulding of the Preston Chronicle, the same paper’s changing treatment of Lancashire dialect, and coverage of professional football. These case studies demonstrate some of the local press content that could not practically be provided by metropolitan publications. The ‘reading world’ of this provincial town is reconstructed, to reveal the historical circumstances in which newspapers and the local paper in particular were read.
