    Radio In The 1940's

    • 3 Pages

    Since the beginning of radio’s “golden age” in the 1940’s, this form of mass media has experienced many changes from different programming, to advertising, to broadcast laws, etc. Beginning when the first radio station, KDKA, signed on in 1920 , it was quickly being picked up as a new emerging form of mass media. By the mid-20’s radios themselves were better and easier to use, and by 1930, were being purchased by the millions. Radio not only survived but thrived through the great depression. This would only be the beginning of its journey of change. Radio, like many other mass media, has continued to evolve to meet the constantly changing wants and needs of society.…

    Today the world in which we live in can be seen as a vastly media integrated way of life. Whether it is film, television or advertising, these forms of media constantly surround us, influencing and changing the way we live. But what about radio? Some say that radio is dying, that its use has become useless, that it was only an aid of assistance during the early and mid 1900’s. But the way I see it, I think that radio is more relevant and significant today than it ever was, especially for the diverse Australian youth cultures. Their lifestyle, education, political views and social aspects come under a large role due to what they listen to over the radio. So how do radio stations maintain and attract their listeners? What sort of impacts does radio have on the Australian youth today? Who still listens to radio, what do they listen to and why?…

    The Enormous Radio

    • 647 Words
    • 3 Pages

    In the short story by John Cheever called "The Enormous Radio" it begins with Jim and Irene Westcotts appearing like the perfect American family. Cheever describes them as "the kind of people who seem to strike that satisfactory average of income, endeavor, and respectability" (Cheever 1). What is ironic about this story is the Westcotts are far from being the perfect family and the community they try to conform to is just as imperfect as the Westcotts themselves. A way the Westcotts try to live up to their society is by keeping secret the fact that they listen to the radio and attend musical events. This is because these activities were not something members of their community did. For example, Cheever says the "Westcotts differed from their friends, their classmates, and their neighbors only in an interest in music. They went to a great many concerts although they never mentioned this to anyone" (1). In the rest of the story Irene Westcott has an addiction to an eavesdropping radio that reveals the personalities and business of her friends and neighbors.…

    The first decades of television in India revolved around Doordarshan since it was the only television channel. As private channels became more visible and viewership increased the picture changed dramatically. These channels took away more and more of the audiences with glossy programs and slickly presented news. With complacence setting in, Doordarshan sometimes telecasted shoddy programs in terms of content and technical presentation. One major factor in compounding the problem was Doordarshan was made a part of the autonomous corporation called Prasar Bharati. In the last quarter of 1999 Mckinsey made a study of the condition of public service broadcasters around the world and how they were faring in the midst of the plethora of emerging private channels. They concluded that public channels were shaping audience preferences. However, Doordarshan was not even considered among the PSBs they studied worldwide. Problem What is the audience perception of doordarshan as a channel? How does it fare among the budding private channels in the urban sector? Will it regain its name and fame through an extensive process of rebranding /repositioning? Put yourself in the shoes of a marketer and help to resurrect the brand with innovative methodologies. Background DOORDARSHAN (Prasar Bharati) is the National Public Service TV Broadcaster of India. It is the only terrestrial television broadcasting in the country.

    Radio Stations like all other Mass Media Organisations, have one means through which they manifest the plans and agenda the station articulated for the audience. That means is the message, which can be conceived as an instrument. An instrument is a powerful tool in the hands of the wielder. That perhaps may explain the rationale for the regime of regulations foisted on the broadcast industry all over the world, of which the print media are relatively exempted.…
