2. You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
You may find yourself in another part of the world
You may find yourself behind the wheel of a large
automobile
You may find yourself in a beautiful house with a beautiful
wife
You may ask yourself, well, how did I get here?

3. In The Creation Of
The Media, Paul
Starr writes
that our present
arrangements are
the result of
choice and not
chance.
4. Which works
better:
Public or Private
?
A constitutive choice is one that sets the
conditions for future development of media
institutions.
11. Public and regulated versus private and
deregulated :
A Constitutive Choice
Public service media /
regulation
… is based on the
principles of
universality, diversity/
provision for minority
audiences, sustaining
an informed electorate,
and cultural and
educational
enrichment, and relies
on government or
charity funding.
Commercial media /
deregulation
… is based on the
principles of removing
or loosening
government
restrictions on the
ownership and
operation of media,
and relies on free
markets, advertising,
and consumer choice.
