Local TV, Localism, and Service Agreements

Danilo Yanich

Journal of Media Economics, 2015, vol. 28, issue 3, 162-180

Abstract: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) uses three principles to regulate the broadcast industry in the United States: competition, diversity, and localism. The least studied of which is localism. As the management and ownership of local TV stations becomes more consolidated, the author examines what effect, if any, that consolidation has on the presentation of local content on television newscasts.
