RVN‐2 refers to the broadcast license call sign of the station, “2” being the channel number of the frequency. However, RVN‐2 was also the name and reference attributed to the station and the channel for many decades amongst viewers, and up to today, those who experienced RVN‐2 sometimes still refer to the channel as that. RVN‐2 was more than just a television service. Its identity on air and its Kooringal Studio facility became local institutions equivalent to that of a landmark. The station was a major local industry, at one time employing 150 local people in various roles from production to technical to clerical, as well as providing an introduction and training ground for young television employees.

  • Of Logos, Owners, and Cultural Intermediaries: Defining an Elit
    Of Logos, Owners, and Cultural Intermediaries: Defining an Elite Discourse in Re-branding Practices at Three Private Canadian Television Stations Christopher Ali University of Pennsylvania ABSTRACT This article explores the relationship between local television stations and na - tional networks through a careful study of station re-branding. The relationship is explored through case studies of the three privately owned English-speaking television stations in Win - nipeg, Canada. Through in-depth interviews with station and network executives, the author investigates the critical factors that facilitated the re-branding of Canada’s private television networks between 1997 and 2005. This period saw many English-speaking television networks unite their respective affiliate stations under a single logo and brand. Influenced by branding theory and scholarship on Canadian broadcasting, this article examines the shift away from local identification in Canadian broadcasting and the benefits, challenges, and resistances therein. KEYWORDS Canadian broadcasting; Local television; History of broadcasting; Branding RÉSUMÉ Cet article explore le rapport entre les stations de télévision locales et les réseaux nationaux au moyen d’un examen méticuleux des changements de marque des stations. Pour ce faire, l’auteur a mené des études de cas sur les trois stations de télévision privées de langue anglaise à Winnipeg, Manitoba. En se fondant sur des entretiens en profondeur avec des cadres de stations et de réseaux, l’auteur explore les facteurs critiques qui ont permis les changements de marque des réseaux de télévision privés au Canada entre 1997 et 2005. C’est durant cette période que plusieurs réseaux de télévision anglophones ont uni leurs stations affiliées respectives sous la bannière d’un seul sigle et d’une seule marque.

  • Productivity Commission Inquiry Into Broadcasting
    PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION INQUIRY INTO BROADCASTING SUBMISSION FROM THE FEDERATION OF AUSTRALIAN COMMERCIAL TELEVISION STATIONS MAY 1999 SUMMARY OF SUBMISSION Governments everywhere in the world have intervened in the broadcasting industry to secure a range of economic, social and cultural objectives. Australian Governments have done so for many reasons. Some of these reasons are now of diminishing relevance, while others remain highly relevant on social, cultural or economic grounds. This submission assesses key broadcasting policies, in order to ascertain whether the public benefits outweigh the costs to the community of the restrictions imposed on the industry, or on competition within the industry. Currently, Australia has one of the best and most comprehensive free-to-air broadcasting systems in the world. It offers diversity of programming, quality, national coverage and local services, and programs reflecting our identity as Australians. This has been achieved through a structure of broadcasting developed over many decades. It involves a hybrid system of advertiser-funded and government-funded broadcasters. The advertiser-funded commercial free-to-air services are the predominant element in the system. These locally-licensed services are highly competitive and efficient. They provide much more local service and locally-produced programming - the costliest service components - than would be expected in a country with such a small population. They are able to do this because of long-standing (though recently reviewed) regulatory limits on the number of commercial services in each licence area. These impressive (and costly) service levels are already proving hard to maintain in the face of limited advertising growth and expanding competition from other media.
