Senators Subsidize Thier Own Television Advertising Time
On March 21, by a vote of 70 to 30, the Senate adopted an amendment to the Campaign Finance Overhaul bill (S 27), requiring broadcasters, during the final two months of an election campaign, to charge political candidates the lowest rates offered throughout the year for television ads.

Robert Torricelli (D.-N.J.) proposed the amendment in an effort to reduce the burden of campaign expenses on political candidates, since for most candidates television advertising represents their highest campaign cost and recent studies, Torricelli said, showed that candidates tend to pay abnormally high rates for advertisements during the final months of a campaign.

Torricelli said that if Congress is going to restrict campaign funds in the campaign finance legislation, Congress must also take steps to "complement the reduction in fundraising.

Advertising on Television

THE TIME OF TELEVISION: A stunning documentary on television and the way that it has affected peoples' thinking, the shape of their days and nights, and the manner in which they absorb information.

The film goes into the changes that have taken place in the nature of television's images-growing sophistication, subtler messages, more careful and eloquent language (visual and verbal), and generally the reshaping of the public through viewing, which has only risen during the period covered, from the beginning of the 1950's thru the mid-1960's.

Research on Children and Television Advertising in Scandinavia: Outline

advertising, beliefs, Scandinavia, Consumer.

In Norway and Sweden, advertising to children is prohibited or severely restricted.

Even so, there are many calls in Scandinavia for broader, more sweeping restrictions.

When research fails to support these beliefs, such as Bjurström's (1994) review, officials claim that the research does not matter, that advertising restrictions can be used to convey social values to children.

According to the Swedish Board for Consumer Policies (1994), research is not necessarily 'of crucial significance for decision makers where TV advertising for children is concerned...'

This places them outside the debate about the influence of advertising, its appeal to youth, and its role in society.

A Survey Of Russian Television

television, stations, Russian, networks.

Since the break-up of the Soviet Union in 1991, the television industry in Russia has experienced remarkable changes.

Only two channels had completely national reach, and only between two and five channels (depending on geographic locale) were available to most viewers.

Market research into viewer preference and habit did not exist.

There are at least six non-governmental networks trying to develop a national audience, all of them broadcasting to their affiliate stations via satellite.

Television advertising revenue overall is estimated at between $421 million and $1 billion for 1995, and may have grown as much as 50% in 1996.

The current contours of the Russian television industry would have been difficult to imagine in 1991.

Is Television Advertising Annoying?
http://www.zonalatina.com/Zldata105.htm

television, television commercials, television advertising, attitude.

In most countries in the world, broadcast television is available for free to anyone who has a television set.

Obviously, nothing is ever really for free.

So in return for receiving free entertainment and information over the airwaves, television viewers have to watch television commercials coming from the people who sponsor those programs.

Some people would believe that television advertising is evil in the sense that the advertising industry bombards the viewers with thousands of images every day, all to persuade them to consume and consume, to the neglect of the higher things in life such as education, social awareness and personal relationships.
