Recommended: Affects of telecommunications on society

Telecommunications is the commercial and non-profit organization involved in development, production, distribution, and exhibition of entertainment and information to the public by electronic means. Recently, interactive media has began to interest many consumers. Of the four media functions, the distribution section is most effected by any changes made in the industry.
Because changes like these are always being made, media businesses must be prepared, so they can continue to produce revenue and profit. Distribution receives the most attention because it is necessary to learn the consumer demand for interactive media, and what will be the most effective way to distribute this service. This change also impacts distribution because they must do research on the audience. And, after doing this, they'll know and respond to the interests and needs of the consumer.

Case Study #2

Telecommunications is characterized as an industry of technology and innovation. Business includes the use of cameras, computers, transmitters and many more technical devices. Because of this, telecommunication managers must have a basic technical understanding of this business.
Technical skills in a manager are important because, one must be able to supervise employees, and operate facilities. Every year there are new developments in modern technology. These technological changes present serious challenges to media management. They have to continuously make decisions on what new equipment to buy for the company, and what will be needed to stay on top.
Basically, understanding radio waves, computer operations, recording systems etc… will allow the media manager to make wise purchases, expansions and employee decisions in a constantly changing, high-tech industry.

Case Study #3

The product-life cycle theory marks the stages of industrial development from innovation to growth, maturity and decline. Many of the major media businesses are in the mature stage. Unfortunately, a few businesses are in decline. In order to stay in business, many of these companies must reposition themselves for an information-based economy.
In order to stay on top during this changing economy, businesses have to concentrate on the way the new products are delivered to consumers. In the innovative stage of the Product-Life Cycle, producers need to spend most of the time in research and development (making and refining the product), and in marketing (convincing consumers to buy). The goal is to influence consumers to sample a product by impressing them by its value.
Competition is a big part of the Growth Stage.

    When horrific crimes occur in large cities, many of them can be chalked up to gang violence or to the larger population of that specific city. But when horrific crimes happen in small cities like Lincoln, Nebraska, people begin to ask questions like who did this and why. In 1958, a nineteen year old man named Charles Starkweather put the entire state of Nebraska and possibly the entire nation in a state of terror. With his murder spree taking only three days, Starkweather had collected a body count of ten bodies, including two teenagers and a young child. Understanding Starkweather’s past and state of mind begins to answer the second question of why.

    Case introduction: A 19 year-old gentlemen, SS, presented to station 20N through the emergency department, following what was described by friends and family as “bizarre behavior.” SS had recently begun college at a local liberal arts school. He had done well during the first semester, but began to struggle academically during the second semester. Family attributed the decline in academic success to an increase in class size, which made SS uncomfortable. Several weeks prior to hospital admission, SS became increasingly isolated, spending the majority of his time in the dorm room and less time in class. Friends and roommates reported that SS was exhibiting bizarre behavior, often confiding in friends that he was being “spied on” by others and that people around him could “read his thoughts.” SS also endorsed a strange delusion in which those around him would blink simultaneously as a form of communication. All of the aforementioned events became overly distressing to SS and his family, so they sought medical help. SS had a limited psychiatric history for which he had seen a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist had put him on an anti-psychotic medication some months prior, but SS self-discontinued the medication after just a several week trial. As a result of the above, and a lack of explanation regarding the past psychiatric referral, the events were described as “first-episode psychosis.” Discussion regarding the diagnostic work-up followed.
