  • Changing Channels: an Exploration of Disruptive Technologies and the Challenges They Pose to English-Canadian Television Production and Distribution
    MA Master's Research Paper Changing Channels: An exploration of disruptive technologies and the challenges they pose to English-Canadian television production and distribution Tessa Sproule Supervisor: Michael Murphy--------- -- This Major Research Paper is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the MA degree in the Joint Graduate Programme in Communication and Culture, a partnership of Ryerson University and York University Joint Graduate Programme in Communication & Culture York University-Ryerson Polytechnic University Toronto, Ontario, Canada September 24, 2004 I grew up in a hole in the woods outside of Peterborough, Ontario. Ours was the only house for quite a stretch on what used to be a dusty gravel road. We had a television, but didn't watch it much. We didn't have cable. We didn't have satellite. We didn't even have an antenna. We had rabbit ears and that was about as high-tech as you could get in Ennismore in the late 1970s and early 1980s. All you could pick up with those rabbit ears -()n a clear day- was Channel 12, CHEX TV, a CBC affiliate based in Peterborough. My childhood menu of TV viewing was limited to whatever CHEX had on the schedule: the farm report (after school I could see how trading went at the hog auction); The Mighty Hercules (a low-budget animated hold-over from the 1960s, airing after the farm report. I would learn years later that Hercules was an example ofthe peculiarities surrounding Canadian content regulations\ incessant repeats of Gilligan's Island; and The Beachcomers (Sunday after my bath).

  • Aspers and Harper, a Toried Love Ties That Bind Canwest to the Conservatives
    Aspers and Harper, A Toried Love Ties that bind CanWest to the Conservatives. View full article and comments here http://thetyee.ca/Mediacheck/2007/11/13/ToriedLove/ By Marc Edge Published: November 13, 2007 TheTyee.ca [Editor's note: This is the first of four excerpts from Marc Edge's new book Asper Nation: Canada's Most Dangerous Media Company.] Its final report on the news media in Canada was not released by the Standing Senate Committee on Transportation and Communications until June of 2006. It had been more than three years since the study was conceived. It had been disbanded twice while Parliament was dissolved for federal elections. In the end, the Senate report was released by a new committee chair, Lise Bacon, as the term of Senator Joan Fraser had expired. The political landscape onto which the report landed had also been radically altered by the federal election earlier that year. After more than a dozen years of Liberal rule, a minority Conservative government came to power that February under Stephen Harper. A deregulationist regime in Ottawa meant that any prescription the senators might have had for legislative reform of Canada's news media ownership had little hope of being adopted. Perhaps that was why they proposed such modest measures to curb the growing power of Canada's media giants. The likelihood of any limits on media ownership being enacted by the new ruling party in Ottawa also grew scant for another reason. The Asper heirs had moved almost as close to the Conservatives as their father had been to the Liberal party.
