Download or read book Television written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Administration Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This inquiry was prompted by requests from broadcasters, including BBC and ITV, for a review of the rules of broadcasting coverage of Parliament. The rules were framed from the start in a restrictive way on the basis that it would be easier to relax them than to introduce restrictions once broadcasting had become a part of the parliamentary landscape. The Committee's recommendations include: simplification of the rules setting out guidelines on picture direction, so that more is left to the judgment of the director in the control room; split screen shots remain unnecessary and should remain forbidden, but the existing rules on panning shots and zoom shots seem redundant and can be removed; a small-scale trial (on a non-sitting day using staff or the Youth Parliament) with a camera mounted on the Table of the House to allow more natural shots of front-bench speakers, with introduction into the House if the results are acceptable. The proposals would make small, practical changes to the way in which Parliament is broadcast on television but which could make coverage a little more relaxed, while retaining the central and essential principle that the broadcasts accurately portray proceedings fully and transparently for public information and the record.

Download or read book Televising Democracies written by Bob Franklin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1992, this was the first book to assess the impact of television broadcasting on the House of Commons and its Member’s behaviour. It looks at the implications for political journalism as well as broader questions concerning the role of media in a democracy. Bringing together contributions from senior broadcasters, politicians from various parties and academics and researchers, the book approaches the issues from a range of different perspectives. The first section of the book focuses on broadcasters’ accounts of the difficulties involved in establishing the structure and organisation of Parliamentary broadcasting, while the second section gives politicians’ own assessments of the consequences of the admission of cameras to the House. The third section looks at the findings of research studies assessing the type of materials broadcast, the impact on political journalism, and audience responses. The fourth section draws comparison with the American, German and European experience of televising democracy.

Download or read book Independent Television in Britain written by P. Bonner and published by Springer. This book was released on 1998-07-13 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stimulating treatment of an area of public life which is a subject of continuing debate and controversy. This volume covers the years in which ITV faced more challenges than at any time in its history and its regulator, the IBA, was subject to political pressures so extreme that they brought about its abolition and rebirth as the Independent Television Commission. The book gives detailed accounts, based on documents not previously available and interviews with over sixty senior figures in the industry, of the changes and controversies of the period. Highlights include: the conflict with government over the programme Death on the Rock , the battle with the BBC for possession of the rights to Dallas , the financial crisis at ITN, the impact of the Peacock Committee Report and the 1990 White Paper on Broadcasting, as well as detailed accounts of the broadcasters' and the regulator's battle with the government over the Broadcasting Bill and the subsequent 'auction' of ITV licences.
