Distinctiveness’ and the BBC
UK government-led consultations over the renewal of the BBC’s Charter, and the new 2017 Charter itself, have foregrounded the ‘distinctiveness’ of the BBC’s output, especially in popular entertainment television. Focusing on these debates and proposals, this article considers the value of distinctiveness when applied to BBC television, identifying definitions of the term and its history (or lack of it) in previous debates about the British broadc…
Broadcasting in the UK and the US in the 1950s

Popular television in authoritarian Europe
This collection brings together work on forms of popular television produced within the authoritarian regimes of Europe after World War II. Ten chapters based on new and original research examine approaches to programming and individual programmes in Spain, Greece, Czechoslovakia, Romania, the Soviet Union and the GDR at a time when they were governed as dictatorships or one-party states. Rather than foregrounding the political economy of televis…

Testing Models of Media Performance in Wartime
Debate over media coverage of foreign affairs has been dominated by a range of theoretical positions, here characterized as the ‘elite-driven,’‘independent’ and ‘oppositional’ models. In this article, we explore the relative cogency of these theoretical positions in the context of British media coverage of the 2003 Iraq War. We find that coverage generally conformed to the elite-driven model, reinforcing the coalition. Nevertheless, our analysis …
U.K. Media and Media Management During the 2003 Invasion of Iraq
Media's role in wartime has long been the subject of controversy, marked by claims that media promote, or indeed constrain, military action, and over the impact of patriotism and new technologies on wartime levels of media autonomy. Based on a detailed examination of U.K. press and television coverage of the 2003 invasion of Iraq and of the U.S./U.K. coalition's media briefings, this report summarizes initial findings concerning media management …
Patriotism meets plurality
In this article, the authors draw upon the results from a substantial content and framing analysis of the British media's treatment of the 2003 Iraq War to show how Britain's national press managed their coverage of the initial combat phase of the war against the background of substantial public and elite opposition. They show that reporting was dominated by coverage of the ongoing battle, that newspapers offered a similar subject agenda to one a…
Reporting Dissent in Wartime
A B S T R A C T ■ The 2003 Iraq War was highly controversial in the UK, generating domestic opposition and a widely supported anti-war movement, the Stop the War Coalition. This article assesses the extent to which anti-war protesters were successful at securing positive coverage in the British press immediately before and during the invasion of Iraq. The study shows that, although anti-war protesters received more favourable than unfavourable co…

The formation ofWorld in Action
This article examines the character of the British television current affairs series World in Actionfrom its first transmission in 1963 until 1965. Against the background of existing current affairs programming, it assesses the series' contribution to the development of distinctive rhetorical and visual forms appropriate for television current affairs journalism. The authors examine some of the specific intentions and practices, the guiding ideas…
Television news and the economy
This study looks at television coverage of the economy through analysis of the issue of inflation. A year-long corpus of material from the BBC and ITN is surveyed. The focus is on the way this medium handles explanations of the causes of inflation — and on the political implications that follow. The agenda that emerges is broadly based in political terms and reification of the economy is not found to be a common feature of the coverage. Explanati…
Augustine and the Amerindian in Seventeenth-Century New France
It may appear absurd to link a thinker of Christian antiquity with the peoples of early modern North America. The Bishop of Hippo (354-430) was not particularly interested in evangelization beyond the Mediterranean world. While he encouraged the proselytization of the tribes of North Africa, Augustine rejected the possibility of "New Worlds" as "on no grounds credible" for lack of scriptural warrant. His achievement, some thousand years before Co…
The Devil in New France
Historians and ethnologists assume that Jesuit missionaries deployed an active demonology, or belief in the real presence of the Devil, in their encounter with Algonquian and Iroquoian peoples in the first half of the seventeenth century. Missionaries, who are frequently depicted as medieval and crudely religious in their outlook, are said to have been convinced that the Devil intervened directly and frequently in the lives of these pagan sauvage…
Plague? Jesuit Accounts of Epidemic Disease in the Sixteenth Century
Since Alexander Yersin's discovery of the bacillus Yersinia pestis in Hong Kong in 1 894, bubonic plague has been recognized as the culprit behind the great pandemics of Eurasian history. Modern epidemiology has retrospectively established the "unholy Trinity" of Y. pestis, the rat flea and the black rat itself as agent of the bubo-producing and generally fatal disease known as the Atra mors or "Black Death." The plague caused the mortality of a …
