examples for each media area.

This is 'Global News' from the internet.

This is the bar on the website, this shows that there is 'Global news' and local news for your area. This helps the communication through countries, and broaden peoples veiws on the world.

Television (TV) is the most widely used telecommunication medium for transmitting and receiving moving images. "Television" may also refer specifically to a television set, television programming or television transmission.

The weakest link is also 'Global media', due to it being viewed all over the world.

X-Factor is another example of 'Global media' and how television programmes are shown in different countries, for example america. The X Factor is a British television singing competition contested by aspiring singers drawn from public auditions, which started in September 2004. It is the originator of the international X Factor franchise. The seven series of the show to date have been broadcast from August/September through to December. The show is produced by FremantleMedia's TalkbackThames and Simon Cowell's production company SYCOtv. The "X Factor" of the title refers to the undefinable "something" that makes for star quality. The show is broadcast on the ITV network in the United Kingdom and on TV3 in Ireland, with spin-off behind-the-scenes shows The Xtra Factor and The X Factor 24/7 screened on ITV2 and TV3. The X Factor was devised as a replacement for the highly successful Pop Idol, which was put on indefinite hiatus after its second series, largely because Cowell wished to launch a show to which he owned the television rights. The perceived similarity between the shows later became the subject of a legal dispute.

 

 Global television and hybrid programming

It is important to resist the idea that media used to be a notional and now it is global, as though this were a neat, linear, historical development. In fact, as Hartley reminds us, 'Globalisation is as old as the media themselves', and what has really happened is that we have begun to realise how cross-culture media have always been, and we have given a name to this - Globalisation. Clearly, whether or not it is a new thing we can see that there are disadvantages and advantages to the global distribution of television, represented here is a basic list.

Pros;

1. Cheaper hardware (televisions) 

2. Ability to consume TV from elsewhere 

3. Ability to compare own nations television with the other TV

4. More choice?

Cons; 

1. Erosion of national culture

2. Cultural dominance of the USA

3. Market forces funding

4. Less choice? 

 The pros are partly economic and partly cultural. Companies like Sony compete in the global marketplace and the price of technology reduces far more than it would if we had nationalised industries at a fixed price.
