Description: "Television and Public Policy: Change and Continuity in an Era of Global Liberalization is a book about public policy and its approach to the television sector and how policy approaches to television have changed in the past 20 years with the rise of a policy paradigm of liberalization, so-called consumer choice and deregulation that has come to dominate the manner in which governments today approach the broadcast media. It provides a map of how the traditional television industries have changed and have also, in some cases, retained the features of the past."--Jacket.
