The significant changes that have swept the television industry
over the last two decades, most notably a shift to deregulation in
broadcast media, prompt a discussion on how to ensure that
meaningful content is available to the viewer. "Television and
Public Policy" analyzes the current state of television systems in
a selected group of countries by exploring the political, economic,
and technological factors that have shaped the sector in such a
short span of time. Consequently, by positioning the television
sector within issues of media policy and the regulatory framework,
the book questions what these trends mean for television, and the
historical, political, and cultural role in our societies.
