The Formation and Development of BBC Radio Text Box: The BBC was established as a private corporation in October 1922, funded through a broadcast receiving licence fee plus ten per cent of the revenue generated from the sale of radio receivers. The service was an immediate success, with over a million licences sold by the Post Office before regular daily transmissions began.

BBC News The BBC news is a British public broadcasting aimed to show the world the real truth and different types of news. It covers news on many areas of the technology world; topics range from internet security issues to gaming reviews, there is a lean toward coverage relevant to a UK audience, believing that all should have the right to know and share knowledge as this quote I took from the site: “The BBC sees its audience as citizens who have the right to independent and impartial information

It is broadcasted via several types of media including television, radio and newspapers, although news does get broadcasted through other means.

Review of BBC One, 6 O'clock News The BBC is a public broadcasting service, which has always been thought of as displaying and promoting views of the entire nation to the public, of which should always conform to the objectives of the institution (mainly educational).

productions. It will show how Gloucester ages and has similar problems as that of the King. In the first part of the play Gloucester receives a letter from Edmond, his bastard son, as the first plot towards the down fall of his father, Gloucester. In the BBC version Gloucester seems to be somewhere in his seventies, where in the PBS version Gloucester seems to be in his sixties a much younger man.

This essay will explain how the UK use Radio and Television Broadcasting as a Public Service opposed the US who dominate these services as a Private enterprise and will then determine which approach is better and why.

David Leans version was made in 1946 so it is shot in black and white. The BBC Version was made in 1997 and was in colour. Lean's version is very similar to the novel more than the B.B.C version.

Versions of Great Expectations By Charles Dickens David Lean's version of Great Expectations is in my opinion more effective at showing the fear and tension in Scene 1. David Leans version was made in 1946 so it is shot in black and white. The BBC Version was made in 1997 and was in colour. Lean's version is very similar to the novel more than the B.B.C version.

The growing economic and cultural significance of television for sport gradually became a pertinent issue in countries around the world.Clearly
terrestrial Channels, which include BBC 1 and 2, Independent Television ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5. Each of these is an example of an institution in the television industry with their own ethos, programme schedules and style. The television industry began with BBCTV which launched in 1936 to a minority audience and was part of the BBC’s then media monopoly.

I choose BBC as an example. According to “broad casting and youth”(Calouster, 1979) BBC mission was ‘inform, educate and entertainment’(Calouste Gulbenlian Foundation, 1979, p61) which is same as now “To enrich people 's lives with programs and services that inform, educate and entertain” in 2015(BBC report). In the book, he also mentions about how BBC managed to expand its contents to youth generation (Calouster, 1979). However why does BBC make a such a effort? Helen (2007)
Comparing the Opening and Witches Scenes in Macbeth We watched two different versions of Macbeth. One was the BBC Shakespeare and the other one was a production called Middle English! While both productions told the story of the original play by William Shakespeare they were different in a number of ways. The BBC Shakespeare presents a traditional version of Macbeth.
