    This website is a non commercial website because it doesn’t sell any products to the general public and instead gives valuable information such as the weather, news, sports news or educational information such as helping with studies like the BBC bite size website. The website might not be filled with bright colours or doesn’t look very nice but it is mostly used for the news or public information that it displays. BBCs aims might be a bit different to other commercial organisations because the BBCs is not focusing much on making profit through their website they are more focused and the quality and accuracy of their information. My research suggests that the BBCs biggest aim interims of the online audience is to make their company known worldwide and make it popular among…

    Moving on to the ‘BBC News’, despite having an independence from Ofcom the BBC have almost identical rules that must be followed. ‘The BBC News’ is probably one of the hardest programmes to keep within the rules, as its job is to get us the non-bias news, reporting on crime, offense, worldwide affairs, elections and lots more. ‘The BBC News’ has to be very careful with fairness, as stereotypes on the news can become an hegemonic belief if the viewers believe what’s being said, and through representation and editing feeling about different groups, genders, race and age are easy to create. An example of ‘The BBC News’ going against The BBC Trust’s fairness regulation was with…

    For the news assignment, I viewed the CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley. This aired on Tuesday, March 28, 2017 at 5:30 p.m. I am going to describe the top news story presented at the beginning of the segment. This story is about sexually abused female Olympic gymnasts. Two female gymnasts come forward to Congress and plead their story about their coach in the Olympics sexually abusing them in their hotel rooms when they were just teens. The women are much older now, but still come forth with their mournful story.…

    The ‘Peacock Report’ of 1986 suggested, in short, that commercialisation was key to the values of broadcasting. It was debated that in order to please the consumer you didn’t have to lower the standards of television. It was still possible to ‘educate, entertain and inform’ the viewer without sacrificing their ‘high standards’ or broadcasting. So it was a few years after the release of the Peacock report (which was later dismissed a high number of people due to the fact that the market didn’t develop as he predicted and that he didn’t frame the arguments about broadcasting in the correct way) that the BBC were forced to rethink PSB as the public were about to be given more choice as to what they watched than ever before. The Peacock Report didn’t convince the BBC to shift away from its public service broadcasting stance as such, but it helped. The factors were more to do with the competition brought from not being a complete monopoly any longer and the threats this brought to the BBC’s…

    The organisation I have chosen to carry out an analysis of the macro-environment is Sky. British Sky Broadcasting Group plc is a satellite broadcasting broadband and telephony services company headquartered in London, United Kingdom with operations in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. According to Manchester Evening news (2010) BSkyB was formed in 1990 when Sky Television and British Satellite Broadcasting merged together. BSkyB has over 10 million subscribers in the United Kingdom which makes it the largest pay TV broadcaster. The merger saved Sky financially as Sky had very little major advertisers compared to British Satellite Broadcasting who had the far superior advertising contracts and equipment, as a result when Sky inherited these it solved the financial problems. The advertising contracts generated vast amounts of revenue for the newly branded BSkyB this allowed BSkyB to take advantage of the growth of newer and improved satellite technology. This newer technology would allow Sky to reach larger audiences and provide a vastly improved channel selection. Eventually with the increase of the channels the quality and the popularity increased to new heights with this sky was able to expand and acquire lucrative licensing deals which would cement Sky’s place at the top of the broadcasting sector indefinitely. Sky has exclusive rights to programming but it has…
