•
1 like•203 views
This document discusses the effects of privatizing electronic media like radio and television. It examines the impacts through interviews with experts in mass communication, political science, and journalism. Privatization involves publicly owned companies being taken over by private interests. When applied to media, it has led to greater press freedom, more debate on political issues, and increased awareness of social problems. Privatized news channels face less government influence and can report more critically. Dramas on private channels have addressed moral lessons and social issues while film channels have helped develop the local film industry. The conclusion is that the media plays an important role in shaping public attitudes towards privatization through the information and perspectives they provide.

Propaganda model of Communication
The document discusses propaganda and the propaganda model of communication. The propaganda model explains how 5 filters - size and ownership of mass media, funding sources, reliance on specific news sources, threats of flak, and anti-communist ideology - shape the type of news that is disseminated in order to manipulate public opinion and support certain economic and political policies. These filters determine what is considered newsworthy and how events will be covered in order to favor the interests of large media corporations and their advertisers.
Development communication
Development communication involves the strategic use of communication to promote socially beneficial goals. It represents communication at a macro level to facilitate national development, while development support communication applies at a micro level to specific community development programs. Key aspects of development communication include using opinion leaders and various communication channels to raise awareness and influence attitudes in support of development initiatives, while also addressing factors like culture, education, and participation that can influence change. Planning development communication campaigns involves understanding cognitive, emotional and behavioral aspects as well as techniques like persuasion and addressing potential resistance to change.
Cultivation theory
According to cultivation theory, heavy television viewers are more likely to perceive social reality as portrayed on television. The theory proposes that extensive television exposure can influence viewers' beliefs about the world, such as exaggerating the prevalence of violence and danger. Cultivation analysis examines the long-term effects of repetitive television content on viewers' conceptions of social reality.
Propaganda model (Revisited)
The propaganda model proposed by Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky in 1988 describes how 5 filters shape media reporting: ownership, advertising, sourcing, flak, and anti-communist ideology. These filters skew coverage to favor government and corporate interests. For example, media ownership by large corporations prioritizes profit over objective reporting, while sourcing from official sources and think tanks limits the range of debate. Together these filters ensure the media serve as a propaganda system for the powerful.

Gatekeeping theory
What is gatekeeping Theory and Who presented it? Who used this Gatekeeping Theory in Mass Communication? what is the process and what are the main Features of Gatekeeping Theory?
Cultivation Theory
The document summarizes Cultivation Theory, which was developed by Professor George Gerbner to analyze the long-term effects of television viewing. Some key points:
- Cultivation Theory predicts that heavy television viewing shapes peoples' perceptions of the real world by cultivating exaggerated beliefs, such as that the world is a more violent place.
- Studies found heavy viewers overestimated statistics like crime rates compared to light viewers. This supported the theory's key concept of a "Mean World Syndrome" from extensive television exposure.
- The theory was later modified to include the concepts of "Mainstreaming," where heavy viewing converges viewpoints across groups, and "Resonance," where effects are stronger for vulnerable populations.

Media & media conglomerates
The document discusses various media conglomerates including their business activities and subsidiaries. It provides information on AT&T, Sony, Time Warner, and Viacom - four major media conglomerates that operate across different sectors like telecommunications, consumer electronics, entertainment, cable TV, broadcasting, publishing, movies and video games. The conglomerates own numerous brands and subsidiaries across these sectors.
Media and democracy
Media plays an important role in democracy by serving as the "fourth pillar" and acting as a watchdog over the government. It informs citizens about political decisions and events, helps generate public opinion, and reminds politicians of their promises by providing extensive election coverage. A free and unbiased media is essential for a healthy democracy, as it allows for open discussion and accountability. It educates people, especially illiterates, and exposes issues in the democratic system to help make governments more responsive. Overall, the document argues that democracy cannot function properly without an active media to facilitate information sharing between governments and their citizens.
Public sphere
Jürgen Habermas was a German philosopher and sociologist born in 1929 who studied at universities in Germany. He is known for his theory of the public sphere as a domain of social life where private citizens can gather to discuss matters of public concern freely and openly. Habermas argued that the 18th century saw the emergence of a bourgeois public sphere but that it has since transformed due to the influences of mass media, advertising, and public relations which have corrupted its independence. He remains skeptical of how mass media can be used to control public opinion and legitimize government policy.
Political Economy of Mass Media
This document discusses the political economy of mass media, which examines how media is produced, distributed, consumed, and how those aspects are related. It specifically looks at how media ownership, corporate advertising models, use of official sources, and ideological filters can shape media. Some key theories discussed include Noam Chomsky's propaganda model, manufacturing consent, and media hegemony, which look at how these factors influence media content and narratives.

In one case, it recommended police protect a journalist receiving threats after publishing critical reports until the related criminal case was resolved.
Normative/functionalist theories of press
Normative theories provide ideal views of how media should operate in terms of both structure and performance. The document discusses four main normative theories of the press: authoritarian, libertarian, social responsibility, and Soviet communist. The authoritarian theory views media as subordinate to state authority, while the libertarian theory advocates for media freedom from government control within a free market system. The social responsibility theory holds that media have obligations to society as well as rights of expression.

More Media, Less Democratisation of Public Access and Participation: A Concep...
In Nigeria, the public broadcast media system was originally designed to be in the forefront of promoting human development, democracy, peaceful coexistence, transparency, rule of law and serving as mediators of the public sphere. However, the public broadcast media in the country have not been successful in playing these roles fully when compared to the print media, for example. Apart from being in predominantly urban areas, public broadcast media in Nigeria are largely elitist and heavily commercialised in their programming and content. Hence, factors such as deregulation, liberalisation and commercialisation of the broadcast media industry have impacted negatively on how public broadcast media are perceived by the audience and other players in the industry. This paper seeks to analyse the effect of deregulation and commercialisation of the broadcast media in Nigeria since 1992 on public broadcast media’s accessibility and public participation for a broad range of segments in society, the rich, the poor, marginalised groups and women. Using critical discourse analysis approach, extant literature was critically reviewed, and a theoretical framework was conceptualised for adoption in future research. Recommendation for future research is given at the end of the paper.

This document summarizes a journal article that examines how the Bureau of Public Enterprises (BPE) in Nigeria utilizes media and the uses and gratification theory during privatization efforts. The study aims to determine how BPE applies uses and gratification concepts in its public relations practices, how messages are crafted, what factors influence media selection, and how audiences make media choices. The document provides background on BPE and privatization in Nigeria. It also reviews literature on uses and gratification theory and discusses how BPE's audiences and messaging may limit which audiences are reached. The review suggests BPE could better understand its audiences' motivations for media exposure when developing communication strategies.

The social media, as interactive online platforms, can play important roles in raising awareness of microfinance opportunities and monitoring the activities of these banks. The document suggests a two-step approach, using both web-based social media and traditional community groups, to inform potential microfinance clients about how to access these services.
The Role of Social Media in Modern Journalism
2. Mass communication encompasses the study and practice of how information is disseminated to large audiences, encompassing various forms of media including television, radio, newspapers, magazines, and the internet.
Muzak pitch ppt.
The document proposes establishing a neutral task force to mediate between journalists, government, and citizens on social media use. Such a task force, like the UN, could help balance the positive effects of social media like consumer empowerment and spreading awareness, with the negative effects like encouraging riots without research or consideration of needs. The task force aims to make social media use more thoughtful and collaborative.

Communication has purposes other than those related to the realm of the media industry; it also educates and alleviates people from ignorance of the events and issues in society. “ICT is a major development agenda in the Philippines because different forms of media have become part of practically all facets of Philippine society.”
Communication practitioners and journalists may find areas of work in private or public institutions, depending on the level of influence or contribution they want to make to their community.
As advanced by Stuart Hall, encoding and decoding presuppose that the decoders actively make sense of the message based on their individual social context or reality, and later on send feedback or collectively change the message.

This document provides an overview and summary of a World Economic Forum report on the implications of digital media for society. It finds that digital media is fundamentally changing how people interact, work, learn and engage in civic life. While digital media provides many opportunities, it also poses some risks if its negative impacts are not addressed. The report is based on research from five countries and aims to raise awareness of these issues and stimulate discussion and action among stakeholders. It calls for public-private collaboration to maximize the benefits of digital media while mitigating the risks.
impacts social media.pptx
Social media has become integral to daily life and has multifaceted impacts on society. It enhances communication and information sharing but also enables misinformation spread and cyberbullying. While social media strengthens some relationships, excessive use can strain personal connections. It also shapes political opinions and discourse while raising privacy concerns. Both positive and negative influences will likely continue as social media and society co-evolve.

STUDY ON THE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY OF HUZHOU TOURISM
STUDY ON THE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY OF HUZHOU TOURISM
THE EFFECTS OF PRIVATIZATION OF THE ELECTRONIC MEDIA
- 1. By MUHAMMAD SHAKEEL THE EFFECTS OF PRIVATIZATION OF THE ELECTRONIC MEDIA MASS COMMUNICATION
- 2. INTRODUCTION This study is aimed at finding out the effects of privatization of electronic media i.e. Radio and Television, through library research method and direct interview survey method, targeting experts in Mass Communication, political scientists, practicing journalists, undergraduate, students of mass communication etc.
- 3. Privatization & Privatization Media The process in which a publicly-traded company is taken over by a few people is also called privatization. Perhaps even more dramatic than the changes to broadcasting have been the trends in privatizations of telecommunications infrastructures and the convergence of mass media and telecommunications infrastructure ownership. In the past 20 years, many governments around the world have privatized their postal, telegraph, and telephone companies (PTTs), resulting in numerous subsequent mergers with and acquisitions by larger foreign companies.
- 4. Effects after Privatization NEWS CHANNELS User experience DRAMAS FILM CHANNELS
- 5. NEWS CHANNELS All sectors are settings to be free i.e broadcasting, reporting etc. Freedom of talk. Debate of different politicians. Negative images of government . Awareness of social issues . Ratings.
- 6. DRAMA ❖ Pakistan electronic media regulatory Authority PEMRA ❖ Moral Lessons ❖ Negative effect of drama FILM CHANNEL ❖ Rise of Film industry ❖ Islamic channels
- 7. Effects of Privatization of Electronic Media ➢ This work took its course on the effects of privatization of electronic media in Nigeria and India and the public in general which is the listening and viewing audience. ➢ It is aimed at finding out the reactions of the listening and viewing audience in the eyes of experts in mass communication and related disciplines and in other towards the privatisation of electronic media. ➢ To carry out this work, We relied heavily on libraries, related journals, and experts' opinions in all related disciplines particularly Mass Communication Scholars, political scientists and practicing journalists for the theoretical and research framework of the study.
- 8. CONCLUSION In a nutshell, the role of mass media in the information campaign on privatization is that of being: a greater source of information; creating of awareness on privatization to an above average extent; influencing the attitude of the public towards the programme, and attracting its participation through influencing the purchase of shares of privatized public enterprises. The role of the media includes shaping the attitude of the public towards privatization by the direction of their publicity. The implication is that if the information in the media is negative to a programme, the attitude of the public will be negative, vice versa.
