NDM News: Globalisation
1) Is our news influenced by American cultural imperialism? Give some examples arguing for or against this perspective.
To a certain extent i do think that British news is influenced by American cultural imperialism, however it does depend on the type of medium that the news is being shown on. For instance the recent prrsidiential election saw a massive increase in the broadcasts by the british media, moreover the british media also interviewed president obama on saying that Britain should stay in the eu.
2) Has the increased globalisation of news improved the audience experience? How? Why?
Yes because news is much more available to the people and now people can views news from outside of their local and national area as technology now allows audiences to view news live from almost everywhere on the planet and this overall improves the experience for audiences.
3) Has globalisation benefited or damaged major news institutions? How? Why?
some would argue that it has damaged it as large instituitons like time warner and murdochs empire dominate the market as they own most smaller institutions which may benefit them but not other companies.
