  • Putting the Geo in Media Studies Reviewed By: Les Roberts
    Published online in European Journal of Communication, 16 Nov 2018 https://doi.org/10.1177/0267323118811690 “The news where you are”: putting the geo in media studies Christopher Ali Media Localism: The Policies of Place, University of Illinois Press: Urbana, Chicago, Springfield, 2017; 272 pp.: £18.99. ISBN: 9780252082238 Karin Fast, André Jansson, Johan Lindell, Linda Ryan Bengtsson, Mekonnen Tesfahuney (eds.) Geomedia Studies: Spaces and Mobilities in Mediatized Worlds, Routledge: New York, London, 2017; 288 pp.: £110.00. ISBN: 9781138221529 Reviewed by: Les Roberts, University of Liverpool At the end of BBC television’s national news programme, the newsreader signs off, with ritual precision, by handing over to the regional news services with the words ‘…and now the news from where you are’. Where am I, tell me? I’m wont to ask on such occasions, looking to secure some sense of local and regional belonging as mirrored back through my television screen. On then trundles BBC North West Tonight which, between the moments of inane (and no less ritualistic) banter that the presenting team insist on sharing, covers news events in Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cumbria, as well as parts of Derbyshire and Yorkshire. So this is where I am: an imagined community that is magically conjured up by the necessarily loose regional descriptor ‘North West’. Yet, geographically at least, I do not live in the North West, I live just across the English-Welsh border in North Wales, a few miles from the English city of Chester. In a post-analogue television landscape where the direction my television aerial is pointed in no longer so narrowly determines what is beamed into my living room, I could easily opt to change my default regional news setting to BBC Wales Today: another imagined media community in which otherwise quite disparate localities – from my home county of Flintshire in North East Wales all the way down to Cardiff or Swansea in the south west – are corralled into a similar geographic container in which news is transacted ‘where you are’.

  • Summary of Project to Evaluate Local Media Content in Northamptonshire: November 2010
    Summary of project to evaluate local media content in Northamptonshire: November 2010 1. Background and overview of Methodology The principle objective of the project was to evaluate sources of local content in Northamptonshire across various different media – newspapers, radio, online, regional television and social media. The project sought to answer two fundamental questions: a. How many local news and sports stories are published by each media channel? b. What is the source of those stories? Northamptonshire is currently covered by two Johnston Press daily newspapers, the Northampton Chronicle & Echo and the Northants Evening Telegraph, as well as one paid for weekly newspaper, the Daventry Express. All three newspapers have associated websites. In terms of commercial radio the county is served by Connect FM, which focuses on the towns of Kettering, Corby, Wellingborough and other areas in the north of the county, as well as Heart FM, which covers the whole of Northamptonshire. The BBC serves the county via BBC online and specifically the local Northampton website, BBC Radio Northampton and BBC Look East provides local TV coverage to most of Northamptonshire. The content of all the media outlined above was monitored over the course of a 4 week period which took place between 1st and 27th November 2010. As well as story counts for news and sport, the source of each item of content was also recorded against the following 13 categories: • Court / inquest • Blue light calls • Public Meetings / Agendas • Press Release • Other publicly available • Diary • Nibs – Press Release • Own Campaign • Possible paper original • Likely paper original • Possible BBC original • Likely BBC original • Other It should be noted that two BBC strike days fell during the monitoring period and have been excluded from the data where indicated.
