The Democratic Party’s decision to include Media Ownership, TV programming and heightened privacy protections in its platform could increase the probability those issues will show up on the congressional and regulatory radar screen next year, some political observers and Media association executives say. Whether it will lead to any new support for action or reflects a likelihood that was already pretty certain was less clear. “Is the era of deregulation over for broadcasters? The answer is yes,” said Dennis Wharton, executive VP of Media relations for the National Association of Broadcasters. “However, it was already pretty clear that the environment will change whether Barack Obama or John McCain becomes president.” “We will have to make an even stronger case that broadcasters are where Americans turn first for local news and information,” he added. The Ownership and programming language was part of the final draft of the platform released last week and due to be voted on by delegates to the Democratic National Convention, which begins Aug. 25 in Denver. Called “A Connected America,” the Media plank promises Democrats will work to boost the amount of minority-owned Media, increase children’s programming, “clarify” broadcasters’ public-interest obligations and work to improve the controls parents have to determine what their kids watch on TV. The platform plank also seems to put Democrats on record as supporting legislation or Fed ... Source: www.allamericanpatriots.com --- 14 days ago

Across the 15 largest Muslim Media systems, Ownership patterns vary in interesting ways. In many Western countries, there is less and less diversity in the Ownership of Media assets because these assets are being concentrated among fewer and fewer corporate actors. In some Muslim countries, Media assets are also concentrated, but among state actors such [...] ... Source: donovanaird.newsvine.com --- 38 days ago

Neatorama has put together some graphics that illustrate what large corporations control in the television Media.

Here’s the grphic that shows what [...] ... Source: www.telecomandtechnologylawblog.com --- 41 days ago
A study conducted in March and April 2008 by Pike & Fischer was released this week. The study surveyed 280 communications executives, engineers, and consultants in the cable, satellite, and technology industries asking about what they thought of the positions of each of the presidential candidates in relation to the communications industry and showed that 50.5% of communications executives are either "unfamiliar or unhappy with the telecommunications policies" of both presidential candidates. Additionally, 40% of the respondents said that they do not even know what the candidates' policies are. The survey showed that the industry professionals are "wary about the ability of any of the presidential candidates to develop sound policies on such issues as broadband availability and Media Ownership." However, even though industry executives and professionals may be unfamiliar with the respective views of Senators Obama (D-IL) and McCain (R-AZ) on important industry issues, in fact, both candidates have taken strong positions on major issues such as Media Ownership, net neutrality, intellectual property protection, and patent system reform. Senator Obama is strongly opposed to Media consolidation according to a statement published on the Senator's website, he "believes that the nation's rules ensuring diversity of Media Ownership are critical to the public interest." Obama adds he is also does not support the consolidation that has already ... Source: feedroom.businessweek.com --- 14 days ago

Julia Boorstin submits: The Olympics which kick off Friday are bringing in over $1 billion in revenue to NBC Universal, by some measures itself justifying GE's (GE) Ownership of the division.

Customers slowly trickled into the Manatee Avenue branch of the former First Priority Bank this morning, the first day the institution reopened under new Ownership after regulators shut it down Friday for being undercapitalized. The scene was calm, and nothing like the throngs of depositors waiting in line that have circulated in the Media following recent bank closures around the nation. "So far, they've scared the heck out me," said one man quietly waiting in his car Monday morning for the bank to open. "All my savings are tied up in there." The man asked not to be identified. First Priority is the first bank to fail in Florida since 2004. This year, a total of eight FDIC-insured institutions have been closed. ... Find more results for Media Ownership on RSSMicro.com |

Filed under: Nintendo DS , Nintendo Wii , E3 For Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive VP of sales and marketing, July's E3 Media briefing was the perfect opportunity to cast a new spell. With most of Wii's casual Ownership tuned out (c'mon, you think grandpop was glued to G4?), the press conference should have marked an effort to dazzle Nintendo's wavering "core." Allow the fans a whiff of another classic sequel, and all would have been right in their hearts. Instead, well ... you know what happened . "I would say the message is we were disappointed with our performance at E3. There were titles like Wario which we think will be really fun titles that we should have showcased," Cammie recently admitted to VGChartz , adding, "We were excited that Mr. Miyamoto made the commitment that Pikmin is coming. It would have been nice if we could have said that on stage." Points for honesty? Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments ...
