  • Katy Searle Editor, BBC Westminster Media Masters – June 20, 2019 Listen to the Podcast Online, Visit
    Katy Searle Editor, BBC Westminster Media Masters – June 20, 2019 Listen to the podcast online, visit www.mediamasters.fm Welcome to Media Masters, a series of one-to-one interviews with people at the top of the media game. Today I’m joined by Katy Searle, head of BBC Westminster. Starting as a researcher and producer, she’s been with the BBC for almost three decades, during which time she’s worked for the World Service, Radio 4 and all three of their flagship daily news bulletins. She has reported on both domestic and international news, including the Jakarta riots and the elections in the US and Israel. As an editor, she’s been responsible for the BBC’s rolling news service, as well as leading programmes including Today and monthly current affairs programme, The Editors. She is also currently political news editor for BBC Westminster. Katy, thank you for joining me. Thank you very much for having me. Katy, it’s been quite a frantic time with Brexit, Trump and the Conservative leadership election. I’m surprised you’ve managed to find time to do this. Yes. It’s been a pretty intense time and it’s pretty tiring, but it’s an incrediBle job to do, actually. And what you find, particularly in politics and talking to people that work both within the media and politics, but also, actually, politicians, is that it’s pretty addictive. And you get used to that kind of intensity and that work rate. And the change of the media landscape over the last five years, I’ve been doing this job for about five years now, has just speeded up.

TV requests increased +9% month-on-month to 229 million, BBC iPlayer’s highest-ever performance for the month of June. • Live viewing grew to 11% of all TV requests, the highest level since mid-2014. And BBC iPlayer (TV and BBC iPlayer Radio) saw the highest ‘unique browser’ reach on record, with an average of 19.9 million unique browsers weekly across June. • The appeal of a ‘Home Nations’ football match, played during office hours. proved a winning combination for BBC iPlayer, with the England v Wales match for UEFA Euro 2016 being, by far, the most requested programme in June, delivering 2.8 million requests. Top Gear continued to be popular as usual, and new dramas Versailles and New Blood rounded out the top 5 most-requested programmes (along with EastEnders), all delivering well over 1m requests. • In a similar story for radio in June, the England v Wales match in UEFA Euro 2016 was also the most popular programme (coverage from BBC Radio 5 live Sport, which delivered 263k requests for BBC iPlayer Radio). • Note: we have included the top 20 episode tables for April and May in this report as well as June’s.

  • Anne Karpf/The Sound of Home? Some Thoughts on How the Radio Voice Anchors, Contains and Sometimes Pierces (Pre-Print Version; Published in The
    1 Anne Karpf/The sound of home? Some thoughts on how the radio voice anchors, contains and sometimes pierces (pre-print version; published in The Radio Journal, vol.11, no.1, April 2013, pp.59-73) Abstract This article argues that while psychoanalytic theory has been valuably employed by television, film and cultural studies, there has been no comparable 'psychoanalytic turn' in radio studies. It suggests that the concept of 'containment', as developed variously by Wilfred Bion and Esther Bick, might go some way to explain the powerful role that the voice of the radio presenter can play in the regular listener's internal world, with the capacity both to 'hold' the listener together, and to transform overwhelming fears into more manageable feelings. It argues that the disembodied radio voice does this partly because it recalls the prenatal power of the maternal voice, and partly through the temporal order that regular radio voices impose on the internal and external world. Both Second World War British radio catchphrases and Roosevelt's Fireside Chats are discussed in relation to their containment function. The article also explores the radio as a transitional space, as defined by Donald Winnicott, through which it can constitute listeners into an 'imagined community'. It ends by reflecting on the impact of the angry voice of 2 the 'shock-jock' which, it suggests, amplifies rather than contains overwhelming feelings.1 Contributor's details Anne Karpf is Reader in Professional Writing and Cultural Inquiry at London Metropolitan University. A journalist, broadcaster and radio critic of The Guardian for seven years, her books include 'The Human Voice' (Bloomsbury, 2006; Ehrenwirth, 2007; Autrement, 2008; Soshisha, 2008).

  • Simonelli on Hendy, 'Life on Air: a History of Radio Four'
    H-Albion Simonelli on Hendy, 'Life on Air: A History of Radio Four' Review published on Friday, January 28, 2011 David Hendy. Life on Air: A History of Radio Four. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2007. Illustrations. ix + 518 pp. $55.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-19-924881-0. Reviewed by David Simonelli (Youngstown State University) Published on H-Albion (January, 2011) Commissioned by Thomas Hajkowski David Hendy’s introduction opens with a pair of extreme vignettes that aptly capture the nature of the Radio Four audience. In May 1988, an elderly woman strode into Broadcasting House and opened fire with a pistol full of blanks when she could not receive Radio Four in Blackpool; more tragically, a vicar in Surrey beat his wife to death with his radio when he objected to someone’s musical tastes as broadcast on the program Desert Island Discs. As a loyal National Public Radio (NPR) listener, one sniffs at the idea that NPR could elicit the same response, no matter how demented the listener might be. To my knowledge, there is no true equivalent in any other Western nation-state’s culture to match the role that Radio Four plays in Britain. The founder of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Sir John Reith, declared that the entire service had a mission “to inform, to educate, and to entertain” (p. 400). In post-Victorian terms, Reith’s idea was to improve people through listening and get them to like the effort. While other branches of BBC radio and television have drifted off to serve each single aspect of that mandate, only Radio Four has kept a true balance between information, education, and entertainment.

  • BBC Four Winter/Spring 2007

In just a few years at the start of the 20th century, Britain changed in unimaginable ways. From the first foray into aviation, to the invention of labour-saving devices for the home, to the rise of “the brand”, and the birth of not only “the High Street”, but also of the “commuter class”, mass consumerism and tabloid journalism, the Edwardians lived lives not too distant from our own. This new BBC Four season investigates, interrogates and celebrates the richness and excitement of this pioneering and world-changing time. 01 bbc_four_Autmun_2006.qxd:Layout 1 16/1/07 10:42 Page 5 The season includes some of the era’s best-known names, from literary giants such as George and Weedon Grossmith and Saki, to the doyenne of the music hall, Marie Lloyd. Along the way, it also uncovers lesser-known figures. It hears about trailblazers in the fields of social reform, journalism, photography, entrepreneurship and technical invention, uncovering what it really felt like to be Edwardian. Dramas The season launches with Andrew Davies’s brilliant, two-part adaptation of the classic comedy novel The Diary Of A In a compelling drama about the life of one of the biggest stars Nobody, starring Hugh Bonneville as the wonderfully of the time, Marie Lloyd – starring Jessie Wallace as Marie – pompous diarist Mr Charles Pooter – the Victor Meldrew of the season exposes the seedy underbelly of this peculiarly his day – Edwardian entertainment.

  • Transcript for Professor Gernsbacher's Lecture Video: “Why Do We Binge-Watch?”
    Transcript for Professor Gernsbacher’s Lecture Video: “Why Do We Binge-Watch?” Ever had that experience of binge-watching a TV series, and you become so absorbed that you forget to eat lunch or you miss your subway stop? Or you keep clicking for the next episode and when you look up, the house has gotten dark around you, and you realize you’ve been watching for hours? Oh, wait just a minute. I read that wrong. Here’s the correct quote: CLICK - Ever had that experience READING A NOVEL when you become so absorbed that you forget to eat lunch or you miss your subway stop? CLICK - Or you’re TURNING THE PAGES so fast, when you look up, the house has gotten dark around you, and you realize you’ve been squinting to see the words. CLICK - We call this “getting lost in a book,” and we could all name a novel that has caused us to CLICK - Get lost in a book. In a Two Thousand and Fourteen article on the website, Thought Catalog, Francesca Saunders urges us to QUOTE “Curl up in your bed, on the floor, the backseat of a car, the plastic bench of a train. Open up a book and … Fall so deeply into this imagined world, [that you] forget where you are. You stop hearing anything that isn’t on the page in front of you.” UNQUOTE CLICK - What does getting lost in a book feel like? Saunders relates that QUOTE Getting lost in a book is like getting hit by a truck, like waking up at 10 pm from a nap.

  • John Osborne's Radio Head
    Lingua e comunicazione inglese III (cfu 3) (2/9, Friday 15 March 2013, h. 08:00–10:00, aula A8) prof. Iain Halliday Corso di laurea: Lingue per la comunicazione internazionale John Osborne’s Radio Head: Up and Down the Dial of British Radio The last paragraph of Osborne’s introduction to his book will serve us well for some linguistic considerations, and to help me create an introduction to this module: “I decided to do something with my love of radio. Despite being a regular listener since those early days of enjoying Just a Minute, I had barely scratched radio’s surface. Scrolling through the presets of my digital radio I realized how much radio there was that I had never heard, and would have no reason to listen to. So I started to tune in to a different station every day and wrote about what I heard. I listened from the moment I woke up, listened while I was at work and carried on until I went to bed. I had a job doing data entry and so was able to listen at my desk to the sounds of the radio stations of the UK rather than office conversations. I discovered stations I never knew existed, listened to shows I had never heard before, from Dynamite MC on Kiss FM to Woman’s Hour on Radio 4. I decided to try to learn about radio and speak to people I had grown up listening to, as well as those who worked in key roles in the radio industry.

This boundary, often referred to in the West as a ‘Chinese Wall’, is designed to uphold the inde- pendence of journalists from commercial interests or the whims of news proprietors. But does this separation still exist in today’s age of social media and at a time when news revenues are under unprecedented pressure? This article focuses on Twitter, now a widely used tool in the newsroom, analysing the Twitter output of 10 UK political correspondents during the busy party conference season.
