Think the summary may have dropped off, attached. From: Media, Communications & Cultural Studies Association (MeCCSA) - Policy Network [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Steven Barnett Sent: 19 January 2012 14:20 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: TV news study For those who missed our enthralling presentation of the results of our TV news study at the annual conference last week, I attach both the Executive Summary and the full report. Our conclusions about the implications for policy are spelled out at the end. The study was funded by the Leverhulme Trust and extends the work we published in 2000 (From Callaghan to Kosovo). Our analysis now stretches back 35 years and is Britain's most comprehensive longitudinal study of television news output to date. We hope at some stage to make the full database available for further analysis. Please forward to anyone you think may be interested.
