If I choose to watch an NFL football game on Fox, then why is there a CTV logo on the screen??? If that's all Canadian channels are good for (copying content from the U.S.), then it's time to turn off the lights and close the doors. I am Canadian and I don't care about Canadian content! Sorry if the truth hurts.... Flag Like timw 1 month ago in reply to Michael 25 people liked this. The truth is that the CRTC has set up the system (probably unwittingly, or more likely at the behest of powerful television and cable lobbyists) to allow a few rich canadians to profit off of imported content without any real incentive to create canadian content. If there was a requirement to create canadian content and an incentive to do so (and a punishment for not doing so) then canadian content would become higher quality - and every once in a while you would be influenced by Canadian content and values rather than the US-centric set of values found on Fox. Flag Like Taibhse 1 month ago in reply to timw 9 people liked this. I absolutely agree with everything Michael has said. I DESPISE 'FOX' - especially their so-called news programmes. They are nothing but sensationalists! Having said that, I have only ever watched a portion of one Fox news programme, that was enough for me. Never again. We need, and deserve, decent Canadian television and not hand-me-down crap from other countries. Flag Like danielkoskinen 1 month ago in reply to Taibhse 5 people liked this. Is Canadian news really that much better? I find that news casts spend m ost of their time advertising what is coming up over and over again. If they were telling me what was coming on after the comercial break, it would be useful, but instead they advertise everything with shock value making you wait to see if the comm ent has any validity. Basically we have entertainment with no substance. That says a lot 1 of 243 12/01/2010 4:27 PM Online Consultation on Television Services - Other issues « http://television.askingcanadians.com/other-issues/ about our lowest common denominator, doesn't it? Canadian News, Am erican News and World News has no value anymore, since they only rehash news releases instead of searching for validity. The best example would be the complete failure to explain the environmental policies of any of the political parties during the last Federal Election. They were nice enough to tell us that we thought it was an important issue but did no interviews to try and define policies. Dan is right we need to get people in the cable companies and the local stations that can think as well as those people that insisted that we have freedom of the press way back when. Flag Like mrpister 1 month ago in reply to timw 8 people liked this. timw has hit the nail on the head. Unfortunately, with the system that is now thoroughly entrenched and the greed of those elite few in control, Canadian television is doomed. Flag Like John Wesley Chisholm 1 month ago in reply to timw 8 people liked this. I agree. I think we should have access to the American channels. It's important. Here in the Nova Scotia we have a real historic and family connection to New England and we want to share entertainment, information and stories with our natural and traditional partners. But why then repeat it and let it take up space on Canadian stations. The proliferation of cable long ago stopped this from making sense now they should just stop it. I want to watch the US shows and, if I choose I want to be able to find Canadian programs on Canadian TV. I would even like to see som e regional representation... not just central shows about the regions or seen through the central filter... I mean real properly developed and financed series. I watch Michigan outdoors on PBS. It's shocking that there is not a single outdoors show dedicated to the Maritimes. Michigan has nothing on our woods and waters. Flag Like Anon 1 month ago in reply to timw 1 person liked this. Well said!!! you've nailed it exactly. Flag Like Carl B 1 month ago in reply to Michael 6 people liked this. My local Fox affiliate, WNYF-CD, is not on the cable anywhere in Canada. It comes in quite readily on a digital subchannel of CBS affiliate WWNY for anyone with even the smallest of outdoor antennae in Kingston, yet the cable here replaces it with some Buffalo station due to arbitrary CRTC regulation and then butchers that signal with signal substitutions. How, exactly, does this benefit broadcast localism? You are doing more harm than good here. Flag Like Gary 1 month ago in reply to Michael 4 people liked this. The reason why this is done, is because the CRTC is protecting the advertising revenues available to the Canadian stations that have paid the USA station or network, a fee to 2 of 243 12/01/2010 4:27 PM Online Consultation on Television Services - Other issues « http://television.askingcanadians.com/other-issues/ broadcast that signal in their area. Note... the key point here is PAID A FEE. Flag Like Chris 1 month ago in reply to Gary 18 people liked this. The FEES that Canadian TV channels are paying are too high. Each year the Canadian industry fight amongst themselves for rights to American shows, bidding up fees to the stratosphere. If they need extra money, maybe Canada's stations should reign in their own expenditures. Don't come after me to support a broken model. Flag Like Carl B 1 month ago in reply to Chris Abolish signal substitution and one key incentive for domestic networks to spend the majority of the non-news program ming budget on duplicative US-originated programming would vanish. Flag Like Sean M 1 month ago in reply to Gary 11 people liked this. And he's saying to them "stop paying the fees!" We can watch that programming on American channels. We don't need a Canadian broadcaster buying that programming, blowing their budget and then crying poor when they m ake no money. They are Canadian broadcasters. Use your money to develop decent Canadian programming and leave the American programming to the American stations we watch them on anyway. Flag Like kenstvital 1 month ago in reply to Gary 5 people liked this. What people don't always realize is that CTV et al are buying rights to programming they are not even broadcasting. Som e of it is to hurt the competition by outbidding and driving up the cost. They also want an alternative in case a program is canceled in the US. They are more or less buying the programming prepackaged off-the-shelf. To elaborate, they are not taking any risks in developing the program. Unless the program is filmed in Canada, they are not doing anything to support the Canadian economy, let alone employ actors, writers and other workers too num erous to list. To be fair, CTV does co-produce programs like Flashpoint. In this case, I will watch Flashpoint on CTV as opposed to CBS. Any program that isn't Canadian such as CSI, I expect to watch it on CBS without the CTV logo appearing. The CRTC should not allow simultaneous substitution unless a program has some Canadian-ness to it. Flag Like R. Connolly 1 month ago in reply to Michael 2 people liked this.

Great stuff Michael. How many times have you been watching Tennis, Football, NASCAR or some other sport and TSN in their wisdom just switches to another sport before the game or race is over. And in some cases runs a ticker just before they switch to tell you to turn to a US - such & such a station. Just appaling. This never happens with ESPN. Flag Like vassellebarber 1 month ago in reply to Michael 2 people liked this. Hi Michael, When you watch "Fox" NFL football, you are only watching a re-broadcast of the American network by a Canadian network. It isn't really Fox showing you the picture. That's why the commercials are all Canadian and you can't see the SuperBowl ads. Flag Like Chad K 1 month ago in reply to vassellebarber 6 people liked this. He clearly gets that. His question is why he has to pay the middleman Flag Like andyyaworski 1 month ago in reply to vassellebarber 1 person liked this. In addition to Vassellebarber. The Yankee football we are watching is not only re-broadcast, it is also "PAID FOR" by the Canadian network showing it.

  • I INFORMING a DISTRACTED AUDIENCE: NEWS NARRATIVES

    I INFORMING a DISTRACTED AUDIENCE: NEWS NARRATIVES

    INFORMING A DISTRACTED AUDIENCE: NEWS NARRATIVES IN BREAKFAST TELEVISION Emma Copeman Submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Bachelor of Arts (MECO), Honours Department of Media and Communications October, 2007 i Abstract This thesis takes its lead from Baym‟s (2004) suggestion that incorporation of entertainment techniques into television news undermines its authority and credibility. To explore this question, textual analysis was conducted on the news bulletins of Australian breakfast television programs Sunrise and Today with regard to narrative features and the spread of traditional news conventions compared to entertainment techniques. This analysis was followed by a discussion of the dominant meanings produced by the news narratives of Sunrise and Today. The two programs employed similar narrative styles that largely adhered to traditional news conventions, positioning themselves as impartial and authoritative relayers of news. However, narratives of both programs also diverged from traditional news: both used entertainment conventions – with Today often abandoning the traditional Inverted Pyramid news story structure for new structures – and contained briefer stories, with references to the opinions and personal experiences of the item presenters. In some breakfast news items, the short and sometimes personal narrative structure diminished the construction of impartiality. While entertainment techniques represented a potential threat to the overall authority of the news, in this analysis, the threat was mitigated by the dominance of traditional news conventions and authority was retained. In summary, departures from traditional news narrative structure and delivery are evident in Australian breakfast television, and may partly decrease its news authority and impartiality. However, the ability of these programs to retain distracted breakfast audiences may depend on the brief, entertaining and sometimes personal nature of the news items.

    TELEVISION BROADCASTERS’ ADOPTION OF DIGITAL MULTICAST AND ANCILLARY SERVICES: AN ANALYSIS OF THE PRIMARY CORE, SUPPORTING, AND ENVIRONMENTAL DRIVERS By TODD ANDREW HOLMES A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN MASS COMMUNICATION UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2008 1 © 2008 Todd Andrew Holmes 2 To all who have inspired my intellectual curiosity and academic pursuits, and to all who have supported me in reaching this milestone 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank my chair, Dr. Ostroff, for the enormous amount of time and guidance he gave to me in helping me to complete this research study. His support and direction were absolutely critical in the successful completion of this paper. I also would like to thank the members of my committee, Dr. Chan-Olmsted and Dr. Brown, for their thoughts and ideas concerning my research topic. Second, I would like to thank the nine television executives who took time out of their busy schedules to meet with me and who very openly and willingly shared with me their thoughts on the research topic. Their help was absolutely vital to the completion of this study. Third, I would like to thank my parents who continued to keep me moving along on the thesis through their inquiries and encouragement. Their own academic achievements have continued to inspire me throughout this process. Lastly, special thanks go to all my friends, the Gator Guzzlers and many others, who heard me talk about this thesis for months and with whom I had to skip out on a lot of activities.

    PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE BEYOND JOURNALISM: INFOTAINMENT, SATIRE AND AUSTRALIAN TELEVISION STEPHEN HARRINGTON BCI(Media&Comm), BCI(Hons)(MediaSt) Submitted April, 2009 For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology, Australia 1 2 STATEMENT OF ORIGINAL AUTHORSHIP The work contained in this thesis has not been previously submitted to meet requirements for an award at this or any other higher education institution. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made. _____________________________________________ Stephen Matthew Harrington Date: 3 4 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the changing relationships between television, politics, audiences and the public sphere. Premised on the notion that mediated politics is now understood “in new ways by new voices” (Jones, 2005: 4), and appropriating what McNair (2003) calls a “chaos theory” of journalism sociology, this thesis explores how two different contemporary Australian political television programs (Sunrise and The Chaser’s War on Everything) are viewed, understood, and used by audiences. In analysing these programs from textual, industry and audience perspectives, this thesis argues that journalism has been largely thought about in overly simplistic binary terms which have failed to reflect the reality of audiences’ news consumption patterns. The findings of this thesis suggest that both ‘soft’ infotainment (Sunrise) and ‘frivolous’ satire (The Chaser’s War on Everything) are used by audiences in intricate ways as sources of political information, and thus these TV programs (and those like them) should be seen as legitimate and valuable forms of public knowledge production.

Dunstan Mobius Legal Group, PLLC P.O. Box 6104 Springfield, VA 22150 Telephone: (703) 851-2843 Counsel to Litton Entertainment Dated: September 24, 2018 SUMMARY The Children’s Television Act (“CTA”) has worked well for nearly 30 years. Adopted and implemented on a completely bipartisan basis, broadcasters and the FCC have met the goals set forth in the CTA to provide the youth of this country with substantial educational and information (“E/I”) content. While the media landscape may have changed since 1990, over-the- air (“OTA”) broadcasting remains the dominant platform for consuming media. Litton has created nearly 3,340 original half-hour E/I programs since the inception of the CTA, and now provides three hours each to ABC, CBS, NBC, CW, and Telemundo stations. Litton used the roadmap created by Congress and the FCC to use advertising and sponsorship dollars to underwrite the production costs of high quality E/I programs. Litton provides its programming to stations free of charge – offered in exchange for Litton being able to sell the advertising slots with the programming. All of the financial risk of producing the programming falls on Litton. Litton’s programming has garnered 50 Emmy nominations and 15 Emmy awards, 46 Parents’ Choice Awards, 108 Telly Awards, and a variety of other accolades. And Litton’s programming is being watched – 1.5 billion views in the last year.
