  • Letter from Dame Melanie Dawes to Rt Hon Damian Green MP on The
    Dame Melanie Dawes Chief Executive [email protected] Rt Hon Damian Green MP House of Commons London SW1A OAA 30 July 2021 Dear Damian, Thank you for your email about BBC coverage of the Olympics, the deal with Discovery, and how these arrangements fit with our code on listed events. There has been significant press coverage of the issues, and the BBC have commented on them too, so I thought it would be helpful to outline the current arrangements, how the code applies in this case and some of the implications for the future. As you may know, the broadcasting arrangements applying to the Tokyo Games are the result of deals done some years ago. In 2012 the BBC acquired the exclusive UK broadcast rights for live coverage of both summer and winter Olympics up to and including the current Games. However, in 2015 Discovery reached an agreement with the IOC for a multimedia rights package encompassing fifty countries in Europe. That deal included the UK broadcast and on-demand rights for live coverage of the 2022 and 2024 Games. Subsequently, in 2016, the BBC agreed to sub-licence pay-TV rights to the current Games, in return for free-to-air rights to the 2022 and 2024 Games. As part of this sub-licencing deal, during the current Games the BBC is allowed to show two live streams at any one time from whichever events it chooses. The reason for concentrating on the rights is that they, rather than the actual coverage provided by a broadcaster of a listed event, are the focus of the current legislative regime.

  • And Public Health
    Medicine, the Market and the Mass Media It is sixty years since the end of the Second World War, but historians have only just begun to explore thoroughly the postwar history of health and its interwar antecedents. Most research and literature has focused on health services and the arrival of the NHS; where public health is concerned many historical surveys ignore the recent past and base their investigations on the nineteenth-century public health legacy. This collection opens up the postwar history of public health to sustained research- based, historical scrutiny. Medicine, the Market and the Mass Media examines the development of a new view of ‘the health of the public’ and the influences that shaped it in the postwar years. The book looks at the dual legacy of social medicine through health services and health promotion, and analyses the role of the mass media along with the connections between public health and industry. These essays take a broad perspective examining developments in Western Europe, and the relationships between Europe and the USA. Virginia Berridge is Professor of History and head of the Centre for History in Public Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, University of London. She has published books and articles on health and society in the twentieth century. Kelly Loughlin is a lecturer in History at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and the main focus of her research is the history of health and medical communications in the UK.

  • Johnston Press and the Crisis in Ireland's Local Newspaper Industry
    1 Johnston Press and the Crisis in Ireland’s Local Newspaper Industry, 2005-14 Anthony Cawley Lecturer in Media, Department of Media and Communication, Liverpool Hope University, L16 9JD [A version of this article was published by Journalism.] Reflecting international trends, Ireland’s local newspaper industry has suffered steep circulation and advertising revenue falls since the late-2000s, and has struggled to reshape traditional business models for the digital era. In harsh trading conditions, local titles are operating on reduced editorial resources and are weakened in their capacity to fulfil their traditional watchdog and informed-citizenry functions. Perhaps no company better encapsulates the industry’s recent difficulties than UK media group Johnston Press. In 2005, it paid more than €200m to acquire fourteen local titles in Ireland, but nine years later sold them for just €8.5m. The article draws on this case-study to consider wider issues related to the corporatisation of local news provision, the sustainability of local news industries in small media markets such as Ireland’s, and the increasing disconnect between local journalism’s commodity value and its public good value. KEYWORDS: Johnston Press, Ireland, local newspapers, local journalism, market sustainability Introduction The local newspaper industry in the Republic of Ireland, reflecting the broader international experience, has suffered steep falls in circulation and revenues since the late-2000s, and has struggled to recalibrate its traditional business models for the digital era. In some cases, 2 local news publishers are reorganising and reducing their editorial resources to maintain operating profitability. In other cases, they are doing so to survive.
