  • Cnn International: Why We Need It
    CNN INTERNATIONAL: WHY WE NEED IT After the sweat and grime of a day in Cairo, nothing feels better than a good shower in a fine hotel and the comforting presence of CNN International on the television screen. The business traveler in Johannesburg, and the vacationer in Jakarta, both share the ability to bring the world into their hotel rooms via Ted Turner’s least appreciated and most significant television achievement. CNN International may be the most important television network in the world. That is because it is the only network that tries to cover the world. All of it . Michael Jordan’s heroics on the basketball court are combined with Dortmond’s success on the soccer field, as well as the exploits of the Indian Rugby team. This is a network that tries to put the planet in perspective. The United States is seen as a part, not the whole. The relationship of world trade and commerce is presented in a clear, meaningful manner. It isn’t just Wall Street that one hears about, all of the world’s key markets are treated, almost equally, by CNN anchors based in Europe. The CNN Asian Business Report is worth the price of admission. I have, during my travels, become a fan of this network, wishing that it were available in the States. How valuable, I’ve often thought, it would be if our high school geography and government instructors could have students tuned in at home to the world is an unbiased way. How wonderful to know that the weather report will include draught in portions of sub-Sahara Africa, as though that portion of the world, and the people who inhabit it, actually matter.

Burke 1 Women Representation on CNN and Fox News Ryan Burke April 1st, 2018 PLS 4600 Research question: What difference does a political bias matter when analyzing how CNN and Fox News portray women’s issues, the number of women guests on their shows, and how much airtime women receive. Hypothesis: My hypothesis is that both networks will have relatively low coverage on women’s issues and guests on the show will be predominately male, but I do hypothesize that CNN will have a higher yield of women as guests on the show. Burke 2 Introduction: Politics is often associated as a bad word. “Playing Politics” is stigmatized as playing dirty and cheap and in association with being corrupt. In 2018, politics have been so sharply polarized and rhetoric from both sides of the aisle have been divisive to energize their bases.

  • Media Ownership Chart
    In 1983, 50 corporations controlled the vast majority of all news media in the U.S. At the time, Ben Bagdikian was called "alarmist" for pointing this out in his book, The Media Monopoly . In his 4th edition, published in 1992, he wrote "in the U.S., fewer than two dozen of these extraordinary creatures own and operate 90% of the mass media" -- controlling almost all of America's newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations, books, records, movies, videos, wire services and photo agencies. He predicted then that eventually this number would fall to about half a dozen companies. This was greeted with skepticism at the time. When the 6th edition of The Media Monopoly was published in 2000, the number had fallen to six. Since then, there have been more mergers and the scope has expanded to include new media like the Internet market. More than 1 in 4 Internet users in the U.S. now log in with AOL Time-Warner, the world's largest media corporation. In 2004, Bagdikian's revised and expanded book, The New Media Monopoly , shows that only 5 huge corporations -- Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch's News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany, and Viacom (formerly CBS) -- now control most of the media industry in the U.S. General Electric's NBC is a close sixth.

  • A Retrospective Analysis of Vertical Mergers in Multichannel Video Programming Distribution Markets: the Comcast-NBCU Merger

Spiwak, President 16 March 2018 VIA EMAIL Douglas Rathbun Competition Policy and Advocacy Section Antitrust Division U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Room 3413 Washington, DC 20530 RE: USDOJ Roundtable on Antitrust Consent Decrees Dear Mr. Rathbun: The Department announced that it intends to hold a public roundtable on April 26, 2018 which will focus on antitrust consent decrees, including the regulatory nature of consent decrees that involve behavioral remedies. To help inform the discussion, please find attached a copy of a recent Phoenix Center paper entitled A Retrospective Analysis of Vertical Mergers in Multichannel Video Programming Distribution Markets: The Comcast-NBCU Merger. In this paper, Phoenix Center Chief Economist Dr. George S. Ford presents a retrospective analysis of the price effects of the Comcast-NBCU merger. In particular, Dr. Ford conducts an econometric analysis of data on the prices paid for programming by multichannel video programing distributors (“MVPDs”) before and after the transaction and finds no evidence that Comcast’s programming prices rose after the merger. The analysis covers general interest programming, news channels, and national and regional sports networks. Given these results, Dr. Ford concludes that there is either a lack of a net positive effect on incentives to raise programming prices above competitive levels following the vertical merger or that the behavioral remedies placed on the Comcast-NBCU merger were effective.

  • The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television
    UC Santa Barbara Global Societies Journal Title The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television: Has the Move towards Transnationalism and Privatization in Arab Television Affected Democratization and Social Development in the Arab World? Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/13s698mx Journal Global Societies Journal, 1(1) Author Elouardaoui, Ouidyane Publication Date 2013 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television | 100 The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television: Has the Move towards Transnationalism and Privatization in Arab Television Affected Democratization and Social Development in the Arab World? By: Ouidyane Elouardaoui ABSTRACT Arab media has experienced a radical shift starting in the 1990s with the emergence of a wide range of private satellite TV channels. These new TV channels, such as MBC (Middle East Broadcasting Center) and Aljazeera have rapidly become the leading Arab channels in the realms of entertainment and news broadcasting. These transnational channels are believed by many scholars to have challenged the traditional approach of their government–owned counterparts. Alternatively, other scholars argue that despite the easy flow of capital and images in present Arab television, having access to trustworthy information still poses a challenge due to the governments’ grip on the production and distribution of visual media. This paper brings together these contrasting perspectives, arguing that despite the unifying role of satellite Arab TV channels, in which national challenges are cast as common regional worries, democratization and social development have suffered. One primary factor is the presence of relationships forged between television broadcasters with influential government figures nationally and regionally within the Arab world.

  • How Cable News Reshaped Local Government$
    How Cable News Reshaped Local GovernmentI Sergio Gallettay, Elliott Ashy yETH Zürich Abstract Partisan cable news broadcasts have a causal effect on the size and composition of bud- gets in U.S. localities. Utilizing channel positioning as an instrument for viewership, we show that exposure to the conservative Fox News Channel shrinks local government budgets, while liberal MSNBC enlarges them. Revenue changes are driven by shifts in property taxes, a key tool for local redistributive policy. Expenditure changes are driven by public hospital expenditures, an important discretionary public good provided by lo- cal governments. We also find evidence that Fox exposure increased privatization (while MSNBC decreased it). An analysis of mechanisms suggests that the results are driven by changes in voter preferences, but not by changes in partisan control of city governments. IWe are grateful to Stefano DellaVigna, Mirko Draca, Ruben Durante, Tore Ellingsen, Benny Geys, Massimo Morelli, Suresh Naidu, Giovanni Pica, Carlo Schwarz, Alex Stremitzer, and Alois Stutzer for helpful suggestions. We have also benefited from comments by participants at the "Causes and Consequences of Populism workshop" in Bocconi (Milan), "Workshop on Political Economy" at the IEB (Barcelona), "Swiss Workshop on Local Public Finance" (Lugano), "Petralia workshop" (Petralia), EEA-ESEM conference (Manchester) and seminars at the University of Lugano, ETH Zürich and IAE- CSIC (Barcelona). We are grateful to Christian Dippel for sharing his data on city elections and to Greg Martin for sharing data on Nielsen ratings. David Cai, Romina Jafarian, Selina Lorusso, and Matteo Pinna provided excellent research assistance. This version: September 2019 (First version: April 2019) ∗Corresponding author: Sergio Galletta.
