Public Service Broadcasting
Public service broadcasting is the idea that
media is broadcasted to the public from the government. This can be funded via
various sources such as licence fees, public financing and governmental
contributions. BBC are publicly funded by the licence payers, but they also
outsource their work to other countries, and they also sell products such as
DVDs.
Private Owned Broadcasting
Privately owned companies would be funded by
their products. Production companies such as Sky television are privately owned
and receive money from such things as subscription fees and advertising.
Hybrid Owned Broadcasting
Some companies are owned
partly by private organisations and partly by public owned. This can help in
creating revenue whilst also giving some creative control. Film Four has had
many issues with its funding, but at one point was part publicly owned and part
privately owned.
Independent
Independently owned companies would freelance
their work to other organisations. This gives complete freedom with creativity
and means that they are not tied to specific boundaries.
Funding
These companies are funded in various ways:
·
License Fee
·
Subscription
·
Sponsorship
·
Advertising
