Democracy and the Media
- 1996 ----- color ----- 29 min ----- vhs
- Journalists and producers from the BBC take viewers inside a television news studio to study how the news is produced, and how decisions concerning the content of the news affect public opinion in a free society. Commercial considerations are weighed against the station’s responsibility to present the widest possible range of opinions and information. Budget constraints and the quest for high television ratings are examined as factors that negatively affect valid news content. Professionals reveal news management techniques that are helping them to circumvent these problems and meet their public responsibilities.
- Topics: (Communications, Political Science, Television)
