    CM202 Mass Media and Broadcasting Unit 5 Discussion Board

    Yes, I think the internet hurts more than helps artist. Before the Internet, artists were selling their CD’s and everything was fine. Since the Internet, many problems arrived. Ten years ago, the biggest record labels were worried about online piracy. Fearing piracy and seeing the fall in the CD sales, they decided to license their records to new online services. The idea was to use a new technology, share music while collecting small fees and discourage fans from stealing music online. But it didn't work as most of the listeners hear free music online because it is much cheaper than purchasing music. Nevertheless, many people (like myself) are aware of the fact that these artists make a living off their album so if they really like it they will decide to buy it on iTunes. I believe that some artist may have difference in opinion simply because they actually understand that not everyone will have $9.99 to purchase their album. Most of the artist that I listen to have a "rags to riches" story and can empathize with lower income individuals. I recently purchased some of the artist J. Cole's songs via iTunes and in one of his songs entitled "Note to Self" basically said, he did not care if only two people bought the album, he just felt proud of himself as an artist. It is not all about money to some (very few actually) of these artist. To that artist that is more after the money, I guess they would take the position that technology does in fact hinder them, however to someone like J. Cole, he would say. it has no barring.…

    Edward Murrow and the Birth of Broadcast Journalism Summary

    Bob Edwards’ Edward Murrow and the Birth of Broadcast Journalism is a short biography about the man that established and revolutionized broadcast journalism. Bob Edwards has ample experience in broadcast journalism as a radio news and talk show host for over 30 years (Biography.com). It is no surprise that Edwards takes a particular interest in writing about Edward Murrow since he certainly influenced Edwards’ career in radio news. While he conducted most of his research through secondary sources, he relied heavily on books by close co-workers of Murrow. With that said, Edward Murrow and the Birth of Broadcast Journalism is a great streamlined tale of Murrow’s journey from a logger, to an education advocate, to broadcast journalism.…

    Bcom/275 Demonstrative Communication Research Paper

    “Verbal communication is the spoken word and includes actual words, intended and inferred meanings, tone and inflection.”(Lee, Duck, McMahan, & Lambert, 2011) Verbal communication is what most people use as communication everyday. Many companies start their business day verbally communicating with every employee. This is usually when the daily game plan is gone over. Everyone states what their “to do list” is for the day and if there are adjustments to be made then, this is the time it is done. This kind of communication lets everyone feel that they are part of the larger goal.…

    Provision of Television Broadcasting in the Modern Age

    I start with the second question and consider whether broadcasting policy should be directed to “give the public what it wants”? In the UK, the tone of the debate about public service broadcasting was set in the earlier radio era. John Reith, the first Director General of the BBC, wrote,3 “the preservation of a high moral tone is obviously of paramount importance.” And “[t]here is no harm in trivial things; in themselves they may even be unquestionably beneficial, for they may assist the more serious work by providing the measure of salt which seasons.” Coase (1950, page 177) remarked that…

    Regulations of Broadcasting over the Air Waves

    Freedom of speech is something that every person should be allowed to have. It is a right given by the constitution. That is how this country was created; every man deserves the chance to say what he thinks. But that right can also be misused; people shouldn't be allowed to broadcast on the radio or on the television everything that they want because of the consequences. It could lead children to violence. Because of this, there should be control over the airwaves, but it should be limited. It should be controlled by an organization that would decide what would be ok to broadcast and what not.…

    Essay - Big Fish

    Essay - Big Fish

    Typical of Tim Burton films, Big Fish is full of interesting elements of fantasy, exaggerated reality, and other time periods or worlds. Most interesting is how Tim Burton seems to always use such separate elements and weave them into films with great continuity, the same is true for Big Fish. Through creative use of narrative advancement, period costuming, and two complete casts of characters (one playing the younger versions and one playing the older versions of people) Burton is able to tell the story of Ed Bloom and his crazy life which is chock full of tall tales and interesting people he met along the way. While there was no shortage of bright colors and oddball characters typical of Burton-esque mise en scene (Danny Devito as a werewolf for example), there was more of a story to Big Fish than found in other films by this director. In an article from 2004 critiquing what was at the time the newest in the Tim Burton library of films, author Beth Deters stated “With Big Fish, curiously enough, the opposite holds true — story prevails over images. The narrative proves far richer than the visual style that depicts it.” (Beth Deters, Worldpress). Honestly, viewing the film twice might not be enough to understand every…

    The United States have adapted television into presidential elections since the 1960s. However the influence on America is not necessarily positive. The negative influence of television on the United States can be conveyed though the necessity of perfect image by candidates, sharing of too personal facts, and the brutality of the television debate.…

    1980s Broadcasting History

    The origin and history of local broadcasting is a dense, intriguing one that leads down many a rabbit hole. Starting with the development and utilization of coaxial cables in the 1980s, which began a new era where cable television reigned. The laying of these cables allowed for easier access to cable television across the country, that led to new forms of broadcasting, especially in the area of local television. Many cities around the country began to form their own independent operated-and-owned television stations where they created their own content and/or aired programs made by it’s citizens. This type of locally made, free-for-all content was called public access television. The 1980’s was an era where public access emerged and thrived, people from anywhere with any idea could buy air and studio time to make whatever show they wanted. There were also really no rules or regulations to what people could put on the air. For example, if someone wanted to make a show were there was blatant nudity it would be aired. However, not every public access program was akin to an LSD trip or displayed a naked couple in their jacuzzi. Many of these public access programs opened up a medium in which to discuss relevant, hot button topics. One such program was the Hot Seat with host Wally George, which was a talk show that aired in the 1980s Mondays through Fridays at 3:30 p.m on Orange County’s KDOC TV, channel 56.…
