  • If You Take the King's Shilling, You Do the King's Bidding: Funding and Censorship of Public Television Programs
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 395 338 CS 509 239 AUTHOR Drushel, Bruce E. TITLE If You Take the King's Shilling, You Do the King's Bidding: Funding and Censorship of Public Television Programs. PUB DATE Nov 95 NOTE 21p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Speech Communication Association (81st, San Antonio, TX, November 18-24, 1995). PUB TYPE Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) Information Analyses (070) Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Censorship; Conservatism; *Financial Support; *Government Role; Higher Education; Homosexuality; Legislators; Mass Media; *Moral Issues; *Programming (Broadcast); *Public Television IDENTIFIERS Congress; *Controversial Topics; First Amendment; Religious Right ABSTRACT Public broadcasting in the United States frequently draws criticism from conservatives who accuse it of pursuing an agenda promoting environmentalism, gay rights, affirmative action, reproductive choice, and other liberal causes, and of being hostile to conservative interests such as defense, the pro-life effort, and the promotion of Christian values. To date, concerns over censorship in public television have focused, not on overt efforts by Congress to determine the bounds of acceptable programs, but on not-so-subtle pressure at both the national and the local level to self-censor or risk loss of funding. Several recent cases of controversial programs have led to calls for ties between funding of the public television system and program content--programs such as "Tongues Untied," "Portrait of a Marriage," and "Tales of the City." Assessing the constitutionality of possible future efforts by Congress to place content-related conditions on the funding of,public television seems to require that 3 areas of law be analyzed: (1) the current statutory framework in which the public television system operates;(2) the recent case law in the area of the First Amendment and public broadcasting; and (3) relevant overarching judicial principles.

In chapter one I examine the first part of Godard’s film career (1952-1967) the Nouvelle Vague years. Influenced by the events of May 1968, Godard at the end of this period renounced his films as bourgeois only to announce a new method of making films that would reflect the au courant French Maoist politics. In chapter two I discuss Godard and the Dziga Vertov Group’s last film Tout va bien. This film displays a marked difference in style from Godard’s earlier films, yet does not display a clear understanding of how to make a political film of this measure without alienating the audience. In contrast to this film, I contrast Guy Debord’s (1931-1994) contemporaneous film The Society of the Spectacle (1973). As a filmmaker Debord successfully dealt with alienation in film.

When the founder steps down, a young alum whose life was saved by the drumline rises to mentor the next generation in the face of systemic injustices. SYNOPSIS The critically-acclaimed, audience favorite RIVER CITY DRUMBEAT is an immersive story of music, love, and legacies set in the American South. For three decades, the dynamic Ed “Nardie” White offered a path to empowerment to Black youth in Louisville, Kentucky through his Pan-African community drum corps. When he decides to step down, Albert Shumake, an alum whose life was saved by the drumline, returns home to carry “the spirit of the drum” forward for the next generation. During the year-long changing of the guard, young drummers Imani, Jailen, and Emily navigate the cadences of adolescence even as systemic forces threaten to undermine their dreams. Directors Marlon Johnson and Anne Flatté deliver a vital and insightful tale that shows how art, love and mentors can transform a child’s life.

The highly visual and dynamic film is the definitive chronicle of Lear’s storied career and premiered as the Opening Night selection at the Sundance Film Festival. Norman Lear: Just Another Version of You is the definitive chronicle of Mr. Lear’s life, work, and achievements, but it is so much more than an arm’s-length, past-tense biopic; at 93, Mr. Lear is as vital and engaged as he ever was. Top-notch cinéma vérité documentarians Rachel Grady and Heidi Ewing ( Jesus Camp, 12th and Delaware, Detropia ) seize the opportunity to fashion a dynamic portrait that matches the spirit of their subject. Breaking down the fourth wall to create an evocative collage where past and present intermingle, they reveal a psychologically rich man whose extraordinary contributions emerge from both his personal story and a dialogue with the world.
