Subscribers are entitled to display a seal of good practice signifying compliance with code standards.
The code is printed in booklet form and includes a preamble, section on advancement of education and culture, community

The recent Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications (CRTC) (2013c) 'Broadcasting Regulatory Policy on the Distribution of Canadian Category C national news speciality services' marks a new regulatory approach to distributing competitive news and sports programming in Canada. This policy is a response to Canadians' concerns over consumer choice due to program bundling and an inability to select news and sports programs on a stand-alone basis (CRTC, 2013c; CRTC, 2014). Based on the Commission's public notice on 'Regulatory Framework for Broadcasting Distribution Undertakings and Discretionary Programming Services', the new regulation demonstrates an effort to reduce national news and sports program regulations and to

The 1920s was an exciting time for broadcasting technology in the west; the possibilities of all that this era had to offer were infinite and with it came much needed regulatory policies. Radio and television broadcasting were at their infancy and no one knew how big this idea of instant, national connection would become. Soon after this, it became apparent that Canadians prominently turned their attention to American broadcasting and, in turn, overlooked their own. This piece of information sparked the birth of regulatory policies and the Canadian Broadcasting Act which would control percentages of original Canadian and foreign content to see to it that Canadians would not lose sight of their culture and that the Canadian broadcasting industries could stay in business. Then again, why should the government have say over what their people are allowed and not allowed to watch, listen to, or enjoy? As it is, times are changing and more and more people are able to download or stream movies to which the government has very little control over. Is the idea that the Canadian Broadcasting Act was originally implemented for, even still necessary? New media has taken over the world, social media is a constant, and even if attempted, people would not be able to get away from the hundreds of advertisements that they see each and every day. The essential control needed to keep Canadian content, culture, and industry thriving is found in the Canadian Broadcasting Act (CBA) to which
Opponents of the reallocation, mainly broadcasters argued that wireless carriers were not using the spectrum efficiently and they had alternatives to increase the capacity of the spectrum without reallocation. Gordon H Smith (President of The National Association of Broadcasters(NAB)) said that more investment in towers and infrastructure and receiving standards could maximize the large range of spectrum already allocated to them. They also did a study and released its findings that the FCC did not take into account all the various ways that wireless carriers could increase the capacity of the spectrum they already allocated. They pointed that increase use of femtocells, improved receiver standards and spectrum sharing will do the purpose. They were also concerned about the fact that the FCC could simply not renew the licenses for the broadcaster`s spectrum and they may just reallocate the spectrum for wireless broadband carriers. They were also concerned if they sue FCC, but the result may come only after a long time. Eventhough the spectrum offering by the broadcaster is voluntary, they think it may not the case in reality.

Together, the National Association of the Deaf (NAD) and the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf, Inc. (RID) have developed a Code of Professional Conduct (CPC) for professional interpreters.

TV network stations also faced changes thanks to TiVo’s innovative technology. The normal rules of placing shows on specific days at a certain time no longer applied since people could now record and watch any show at any time. On the other hand, this also led to networks being able to track how well a new show is doing before it even airs by looking at how many people were recording it.
Rating for the respective network is obtained by substituting the values in the above equation as follows
How industrial norms and conditions that matter to television content because they create specific textual outcomes, norms of each television era have made certain types of programs more likely and as the norms and conditions have changed so has the range of textual possibility. For example, the introduction of subscription supported channels led to programs that would not have been allowed on broadcast networks. Because channels that function under this economic model require programming that will is considered valuable enough to entice viewers to pay for their service and are not restricted by the same strict regulations as ad-supported networks, they must provide programs that views cannot find elsewhere, which leads them to push
The ‘Golden Age of Television’ is what many refer to as the period between the 1950s and 60s when the television began to establish itself as a prevalent medium in the United States. In 1947, the American Broadcasting Company (ABC), Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS), the National Broadcasting Company (NBC), and the Du Mont Network were the four main television networks that ran stations with regular programming taking place. (Television, 2003) While regular television programming was a new innovation, the television itself had been commercially available for over twenty years prior to the 50s. It was conceived by many worldly innovators and went through several testing stages before it was finally completed in the late twenties. The

For decades, National Public Radio has maintained a legacy as a successful worldwide news organization. However, the news produced tends to be consumed mainly by an older audience. It has a reputation among millennials as one of the less entertaining news outlets. It is essential for news to be exciting in order to capture the attention of this millennial audience, and NPR tends to lack the excitement value it needs to fully reach this massive demographic. In order for the station to better attract and maintain millennial readers, viewers and listeners, the organization needs to cater to their lifestyle habits and preferences. In a constantly changing and developing world, NPR needs to be ahead of the game in technological advancements.
