    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository The Production of Religious Broadcasting: The Case of the BBC Caitriona Noonan A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Centre for Cultural Policy Research Department of Theatre, Film and Television University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8QQ December 2008 © Caitriona Noonan, 2008 Abstract This thesis examines the way in which media professionals negotiate the occupational challenges related to television and radio production. It has used the subject of religion and its treatment within the BBC as a microcosm to unpack some of the dilemmas of contemporary broadcasting. In recent years religious programmes have evolved in both form and content leading to what some observers claim is a “renaissance” in religious broadcasting. However, any claims of a renaissance have to be balanced against the complex institutional and commercial constraints that challenge its long-term viability. This research finds that despite the BBC’s public commitment to covering a religious brief, producers in this style of programming are subject to many of the same competitive forces as those in other areas of production. Furthermore those producers who work in-house within the BBC’s Department of Religion and Ethics believe that in practice they are being increasingly undermined through the internal culture of the Corporation and the strategic decisions it has adopted. This is not an intentional snub by the BBC but a product of the pressure the Corporation finds itself under in an increasingly competitive broadcasting ecology, hence the removal of the protection once afforded to both the department and the output.

Sargent: Lawyers in the Moral Maze 2004] LAWYERS IN THE MORAL MAZE MARK A. SARGENT* I. INTRODUCTION T HE Securities and Exchange Commission's Standards of Professional Conduct for Attorneys1 represent an attempt to solve a problem. The problem is that ethical obligations, state law and self-interest apparently do not give lawyers sufficient incentives to report law violations by corporate managers "up the ladder" to appropriate decisionmakers within the corpo- rate client, or to disclose illegality to regulators. That problem is consid- ered serious, because it is believed to have resulted in lawyers' at least passive complicity in managerial wrongdoing. That complicity violated lawyers' fiduciary obligation to their corporate client and betrayed their public trust as gatekeepers, thereby contributing to the recent epidemic of corporate fraud and corporate governance failures. Let's assume, for the sake of argument, that the problem, as just defined, is real and serious.
