From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to trace the history of radio broadcasting in the United States until the advent of television. We will see how the work of amateurs such as Frank Conrad led to the broadcast of the presidential election returns on November 2, 1920. A subsequent rush to build and buy receivers helped boost Westinghouse sales of radio sets. Radio Corporation of America won itself an audience of 300,000 broadcasting the Dempsey-Carpentier fight in 1921. AT&T presented the first commercial a year later. Yet a year after that AT&T began the establishment of network broadcasting. Government antitrust action in 1931 resulted in RCA, GE, and Westinghouse making their patents generally available. Meanwhile, the Radio Act of 1927 had established the Federal Radio Commission s "traffic policemen" of the air. "

In recent years we have witnessed a considerable amount of change, which has had an impact on the role of regulators in the broadcasting industry. Included in this is the development of the global marketplace as well as the rise of new forms of technology and media, such as the Internet, which can make regulation difficult if not impossible. This, of course, has raised the question of whether or not there is any role for regulation in this new and evolving environment. The purpose of this paper will be to examine these issues in light of this specific case of government regulation. This analysis will include an outline of the reasons why the government has intervened, the form of intervention, the results of intervention, as well as whether or not an alternative policy might be preferable.

Problem of continued viewer financial support. Makeup & budget of PBS. Response of Presidental administrations to funding public broadcasting. Canadian system.
From the Paper
"In order for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the Public Broadcasting System to survive and flourish as they have for the last three decades, the issue of funding is of vital importance. Recent efforts by political enemies of PBS to cut funding have forced the issues of government funding and of alternative funding methods onto the national agenda. PBS has responded by considering different ways of bringing in revenues to replace government funding in case such funding is cut. One of the ways being explored is increased corporate funding, even to the point of showing commercials on public television. This challenges the way PBS has always operated, raises questions about continuing viewer support, and might remove the appearance of independence that has marked the network since its inception. To date, PBS has not gone so far as to sell commercials as..."

"INTRODUCTION
The Israeli broadcasting system is extensive and sophisticated. Much of it is government-funded, and it is utilized by the government to get its message out both to the Israeli people and to the rest of the world regarding issues of import and especially regarding attitudes toward and relations with Israel's Arab neighbors. Many of the television and radio outlets not only broadcast their signal but make it available on the Internet and so reach even more of the world than would otherwise be the case. The system has grown rapidly because it has been empowered by the government in a desire to convey its message to the outside world as well as to the people, based on the view that an informed populace would be better prepared for the sorts of crises that face this small country surrounded by..."

Abstract
This paper examines the differences between New Deal era regulations and the shift that took place in regulations and regulatory reform during the 1960s and 70s in the United States. It examines different regulatory policies from Franklin Delano Roosevelt's decision to implement new deal regulatory policies in an attempt to defeat the depression to more recent legislation such as environmental legislation during the 1960s and 1970s. It analyzes how regulations follow a consistent model, one that is based on improving the lives of America's citizens. From the time of the New Deal throughout the 20th century, the central focus of legislation has been to create and pass laws that will provide substantial benefits to various segments of our society.
From the Paper
"The key to understanding New Deal legislation is to remember that it was aimed at curing the economic ills that prevailed during the Great Depression. However, as we begin to examine future legislation, we can see that the basic model remains the same and that additional regulation is an extension of the New Deal regulatory model. If we examine the regulatory policies of the 1960s and 70s, although they were not concerned with Depression issues or income distribution, they were still concerned with providing a quality of life for all Americans, particularly with regard to style of life, health and social justice.
Roosevelt worked diligently during his first 100 days in office and passed over 16 pieces of legislation, including the federal Emergency Relief Act, the Tennessee Valley Authority and the National Recovery Act. As his days in office continued, so did his penchant for enacting legislation to cure the economic woes facing the U.S."

Public Service Broadcasting in Australia, 2004.
This paper discusses what the role of Public Service Broadcasting in Australia should be.

»

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that the basic idea behind Public Service Broadcasting in Australia is to serve the public without aiming to make profit. The writer points out that public broadcasters acquire money from the government, which collects taxes, and use this money to make programs for the public. The writer explains that on the other hand, commercial broadcasting's main aim is to produce programs in order to make money. The writer then discusses that the scope of public broadcasting is to cover the area, which the commercial sector of broadcasting does not cover due to the profit concerns. Thus, the writer maintains that Public Service Broadcasting's interests are (or should be) the cultural and social values that can be and must be included into the production, meeting public's needs of broadcasting in terms of education, multicultural affairs and citizenship in a democratic society.
From the Paper
"In Australia, the ABC and SBS are Public Service Broadcasting channels. They have the advantage of being free of profit making concerns, so they should provide news and current affair programs through regionally specific services. Besides, a diverse range of people who have different tastes or specialized demands should be considered as a matter of concern by Public Service Broadcasting. These public channels are also expected to produce high-quality content, which contains arts and sciences. Therefore, society can benefit from different cultural insights, on the one hand. On the other, the public can be educated on citizenship values and an accurate understanding of democracy. Finally this leads to the creation and development of a national culture and consciousness of being Australian, which includes understanding of multiculturalism and integration of differences."

Employee Regulations, 2002.

Abstract
This paper examines how, in order to maintain balance in every process and to develop eligibility, a company needs solid regulations to cover management and employee needs. It looks at such issues as employee motivation and provides a listing of qualities of regulations that facilitate the employees as well as their managers. Examples given include easy-to-understand job descriptions and guidance on how employees can maximize their performance and potentials for employees and for the managers such qualities as the simplification of management responsibility to define goals for each division and subdivision and each individual worker. It evaluates how overall integration is the only answer to create balanced performance of regulations, so the regulations will play fair and protect the rights from both parties. Company should state clearly to employees what they expect and the standard performance and employees can also provide feedback as well to ensure their needs and complaints are fulfilled.
From the Paper
"Although managers mostly are related with planning and periodical-achievement-estimation function in the company resource profile, basically they have similar functions as other employees, unless they are the same personnel. Managers do not only set targets for achievement but also encourage all staffs to fully participate following their qualities and regulations. They need to think about the best way to demand high quality performance and timely fashion. The audacious task takes more than other duties, since not all employees simply follow guidelines from the company, or get motivated with the regulations. Managers need to educate them to understand that both managers and company have the same goals, and it is not the owner?s goals only. Also, employees need to understand why they are required to work hard, improve their skills, or join arduous trainings to escalate their level."

Public Broadcasting, 2003.
An argument against increasing commercialization in the American public broadcasting system.
1,702 words (approx. 6.8 pages), 7 sources, APA, $ 55.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper analyzes the increasing commercialization of public broadcasting. In recent years, public broadcasters have significantly expanded the scope of donor and underwriting acknowledgments. This expanded scope means that promotional slogans and even corporate logos may be aired. The result is that many of public broadcasting?s underwriting announcements are virtually indistinguishable from commercials. The paper rejects suggestions that allowing limited commercial advertisements to penetrate public broadcasting might alleviate the serious funding strains public broadcasting faces.
From the Paper
"The controversy surrounding American public broadcasting?s increasing commercialization has reached deafening proportions in recent years. Although the Federal Communications Act of 1934 uniformly prohibits noncommercial broadcasters from airing advertisements promoting any specific product or service, the interpretation of that guideline has over many years been stretched significantly as a result of several Federal Communication Commission (FCC) rulings. Public broadcasting?s enhanced underwriter announcements increasingly mimic commercial broadcast advertisements. However, allowing public broadcast stations to sell traditional commercial advertisements in any way would greatly undermine the goals and spirit of the American public broadcasting system. While some funding alternatives have been suggested, a concrete and sustainable remedy for the long-term financial health of the U.S. public broadcasting system has yet to be realized."

Abstract
Maximization of stockholders wealth is a controversial objective, which is often viewed with skepticism by economic analysts and business experts. This paper discusses how it is generally believed that such an objective is rather unrealistic and cannot be achieved keeping the current regulations in view. It questions whether government imposed regulation in various areas, directly affect profitability and business operations. Some studies suggest that these regulations have a negative impact on stockholders wealth while others refute such claims. In this paper, the writer addresses these issue to find out if stockholders wealth is affected by regulations and if so, how.
From the Paper
"For maximization of stockholder wealth, a corporation needs to retain control over its operations and the measures adopted for increased profitability. However this is only a fairytale situation, which is close to impossible in a country marred by a long list of regulations. Government imposes various kinds of regulations to protect American public from possible exploitation. However what it may not understand is the fact that not all but some of these regulations negatively affect profitability which in turn hurt stockholders wealth. (Whiteman-Jones, 1994)"

Abstract
In this essay, the author first examines the term 'public service broadcasting', and what it is understood to mean today. The paper then moves to an examination of the concept of national identity and a consideration of the relevance and value of having a sense of national identity. Finally, the paper takes a look at globalization and digitization, the effects that they can have on national identity, and the role that public service broadcasting can play in countering some of these effects. A website article on the public service broadcasting in the United Kingdom is appended to the paper.
From the Paper
"On its surface, 'digitalisation; refers to the move from analogue modes of representation - such as AM radio or 35mm film - to digitised formats, where information is stored in a series of 'bits' (binary digits) and recreated according to pre-defined algorithms (examples include DAB - Digital Audio Broadcasting - or the storage of text items on computer, using the ASCII standard). However, when used in reference to the mass media, the term has a more specific, and one could say complex, meaning. The development of new forms of digital communications technology, leveraging ever more powerful computing resources, is leading to what is termed the "information age""
