New and Digital Media: News case study introduction

Non-Commercial news institution: BBC is a key example of a non-commercial news institution which is otherwise known as a public service broadcaster which refers to TV programmes that are broadcasted for the public benefit rather than for purely commercial purposes. These programs would include news coverage, arts and cultural programs and also religious broadcasts. Now you may ask how an international media outlet is getting funded and how it gets it's money for rights and other stuff. They are funded by public subscription in the form of a licence fee which makes the BBC the most extensive and best funded public service broadcaster in the world.  Commercial news institution: Contrary to the BBC, ITV are not a public service broadcaster, it doesn't receive funding from a license fee.

NDM: The Decline of the newspaper industry

1) I see eye to eye with the view that people result into using any digital device they have whilst getting the information they want by searching it up. Newspapers are at their dying medium as hardly in today’s day and age they are surviving due to the impact from digital devices. This outlines a major cause for concern for newspapers as the only way they can survive is through advertising. When Rupert Murdoch states that newspapers are a river of gold then takes it back to Rivers dry up, it can confirm that newspapers are not people’s preferences in society today. We receive the same information and news through our mobile phones regardless whether it is the same, we can now view it visually alongside assisted videos or traditional reading which is produced by journalists with information and stories that they have published. 2) The article believes that the newspaper industry will be in decline; looking at the Ofcom reports, the reach of newspapers has reduced by 27% past 2005 and
