Macy, Jr. ,President r\I Corporation for Public Broadcasting 4.0 888 Sixteenth Street, N.W. $ Washington, D.C. 20006 O Dear Mr. Macy: The Public Broadcasting Environment Center has completed its six-month planning period.In accordance with your "Delegation of Authority," dated May 12, 1970, I am sending to you our Final Report for forwarding to the U.S. Office of Education. As the Report describes, we have accomplished the specified tasks within the $600,000 made available and within the time required. And wt accomplished considerably more. We have organized PBEC and developed the staff and plan of operation requested; made the necessary surveys and investigations with co..r own staff and through consultants; and, with this Report, we outline a program which would thoroughly justify the initial interest and concern of the Office of Education and the Corporation for Public Broad- casting that led to the creation of PBEC. Our very planning activities have generated reaction among public broadcasting stations and environmental and education i1 groups which demonstrates clearly the need and the potential impact of an organization such as PBEC. At the same time, govern- ment and industry sources have shown an eagerness to become partners in or efforts. The mementum we have thus gained, with nn enthusiastic staff and a solid research base, recommends going forward with considerable energy. Specifically, the desire of public television and radio stations to iritiate sustained environmental programming; the interest of educational institntions in making inno- vative, high-impact efforts toward environmental education; and the remarkable pressures from local communities for help in organizing environmental activities, often led by and focused on the local public broadcasting station, is at once a heartening discovery and a distinct challenge. We on the PBEC staff have found this six-month experience to be as enlightening and exciting as one could hope for, especially because we are on the cutting edge of the Nation's and the world's worst problems and best opportunities. Our staff, balanced with educators, environmentalists, communicators and administrative and systems experts, is eager to get the go-ahead signal to respond to a national mandate to develop an intelligent response to urgent human problems.

The condition of the environment threatened the very future of man and his world. Widespread environmental awareness and responsibility had to be developed quickly. New comprehensive communication techniques and educational tools were needed. Thus, in an attempt to meet this need, the unique capabilities of public broadcasting were applied to the broad challenge of environmental education. This Report of the Public Broadcasting Environment Center describes the activities of the past six months which were aimed at identifying the dimen- sions of the problems and the conclusions which PBEC reached to meet these problems. The Final Report responds to the two specific Objectives cited in the May 1, 1970 research proposal for PBEC, which said (page 5): "Throughout the six-month planning Phase I of this project, two major objectives will be pursued: 1.The development of a

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.

  • Making Crime TV: Producing Fictional Representations of Crime for Canadian Television
    Making Crime TV: Producing Fictional Representations of Crime for Canadian Television by Anita Yuen-Fai Lam A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Criminology and Sociolegal Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Anita Yuen-Fai Lam (2011) Making Crime TV: Producing Fictional Representations of Crime for Canadian Television Anita Yuen-Fai Lam Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Criminology and Sociolegal Studies University of Toronto 2011 Abstract Criminologists and sociolegal scholars have become increasingly interested in studying media representations of crime in popular culture. They have studied representations using content analyses, often examining their “accuracy” against academic research. Alternatively, these scholars have also studied media effects. In contrast to these studies, I focus on the television production process of making entertaining, dramatic representations of crime. In doing so, I empirically address the following research question: how do TV writers know about crime, and how do they transform that knowledge into fictional representations? I answer this question using a triangulation of methods to gather data – specifically, ethnography, archival research, and interviews with writers and producers – and through the juxtaposition of several case studies. My case studies include the following Canadian crime television programs: 1) the police drama The Bridge, 2) an original Canadian drama about insurance fraud, Cra$h and Burn, and 3) crime docudramas, such as F2: Forensic Factor and Exhibit A: Secrets of Forensic Science. Taking cues from Bruno Latour‟s actor-network theory, I focus on the site-specific, concrete, dynamic processes through which each television production makes fiction.
