THE CASE FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING

E

very so often, the merits and funding of public broadcasting are debated before Congress.

Frequently the deliberation suggests public broadcasting is an ideological relic that is no longer relevant. In other instances, the suggestion is that public broadcasting is nice to have but hardly a necessity. In the 112th Congress, it appears as though the debate may focus on both arguments.

The origins of public broadcast funding can be summarized as follows. In 1967, President Johnson signed the Public Broadcasting Act to, among other things, “help ensure that all citizens of the United States have access to public telecommunications services through all appropriate available telecommunications distribution technologies.” The act established the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) while making clear CPB would “not be an agency or establishment of the United States Government.” The CPB was to be an independent agency that would make grants to public broadcasting stations while insulating those stations from the legislators who approved the funding.

Flash forward to 2011 and diversity of voices and ownership has all but been eliminated from radio and television, even though the number of choices has increased infinitely. Today a handful of corporations own the vast majority of media outlets leaving citizens with virtually no direct access to those who select the programs that are broadcast on their local stations.

Except, of course, for public broadcasting, where more than 1,000 independent radio and TV stations across the nation select programs from a variety of producers that are considered to be of the highest value and interest to local audiences. The stations select these programs based on community feedback and a history of involvement at the local level. Programming can be received for free with the least expensive equipment and without the necessity of a subscription. In some cases, like WSIU, the stations also provide experiential learning opportunities for college students.

For all of this, the federal government invests less than $1.50 per citizen, which is matched more than three-to-one by local citizens, local corporations, and state and local government who contribute $1.3-billion of support for their local public broadcast stations.

For a nation founded, among other things, on the premises of free speech and a free press, this seems like a small investment for something so significant.

celebrating 50 Years of excellence, 1961-2011

T

he year 1961 was a monumental one in American history. Among the year’s biggest stories, John F. Kennedy became the 35th President of the United States, Roger Jason Thomas <jthomas@ Maris of the New York midwest.net> Yankees broke Babe Ruth’s 34-year-old home run record, Joseph Heller published his classic novel Catch-22, and Alan Shepherd became the first American in space.

No, we didn’t break a world record or send an astronaut into space.

But, thanks to two visionary men, SIU President Delyte Morris and Radio-Television professor Buren C. Robbins, on November 6, 1961 we launched a brand new television signal – WSIU-TV Channel 8 – and a powerful relationship between the University and the region was born. Through public television, SIU could expand learning opportunities for students studying the broadcast industry while providing rural communities with access to many of the educational and cultural benefits of higher education.

Although WSIU’s A iintentions were grand, oour beginnings were ffar more humble. WSIU Radio, which signed R oon the air three years eearlier than WSIU-TV, iinitially broadcast from a Quonset hut on campus Q tthat had at one time bbeen a chicken hatchery and a tire repair shop.

When WSIU-TV joined the airwaves, we did so with only 55 hours of programming, 21 of which were devoted to instructional programs for area teachers. Today we broadcast programming from every genre around the clock on three digital TV channels. We also offer some local and PBS broadcasts on demand at wsiu.org.

Your financial support over the past 50 years has enabled WSIU to develop into a robust media enterprise that continues to inspire personal growth, community engagement, and a love for learning in people of all ages. To celebrate the many successes we’ve achieved together, we dedicate 2011 – our 50th TV anniversary year – to you.

Look for special messages on the air, in print, and online, along with news about special events WSIU will host throughout the year.

INSPIRED BY THE MUPPETS: NEW SCHOLASTIC HI-Q HOST HAS BIG DREAMS Scholastic Hi-Q airs Sundays at 5:30pm | repeats Sundays at 9:30am Article by Jenna Richardson, senior in Ag Communications from Cisne, Ill., and Katrina Stackhouse, graduate student in Professional Media & Media Management from Vernon Hills, Ill.

eet Ryan Dosier, a sophomore studying Cinema & Photography at SIUC, a muppet expert, and the new face of Scholastic Hi-Q. As the quiz show’s program host, Dosier attempts to stump top students from area school scholar bowl teams as they try to answer questions from a variety of disciplines, such as art, science, history, literature, math, and music.

A Southern Illinois native and Carbondale Community High School graduate, Dosier has long been acquainted with Scholastic Hi-Q. “I was on my high school’s scholar bowl team, but when I say ‘on the team,’ I mean I was there for comic relief,” he shares.

Dosier didn’t appear on the air, but watched his classmates from the green room while the show was being taped.

“As I watched the host running the show, I thought to myself, ‘Well, surely I could do that’,” Dosier says. Little did he know that his words would prove to be prophetic. At the end of SIUC’s Spring 2010 semester, Dosier saw a call for host auditions in the Communications Building. “I went in for the audition and apparently impressed them with my ability to correctly pronounce words, and the rest is history!” he says.

Dosier’s favorite part about being host of the show is interacting with the scholar bowl teams, challenging himself to learn the material, and having the opportunity to get professional development and experience on camera. “I feel like I actually learn something while I host,” Dosier says. “There are so many great reasons to get involved with

WSIU while you’re a student. Not only is there an unbelievable amount of experience to be gained, but the people you meet are all fantastic. I’ve learned so much about television production just by being the host.

For students in Radio-Television, there’s absolutely no reason not to be involved with WSIU’s student-produced programs like Scholastic Hi-Q, River Region Evening Edition, Studio A, or alt.news.”

For students

I’ve been quoted on the back of two different Muppet Comic Book Collections, and they even wished the blog a happy birthday via their official Twitter account,” Dosier says.

“Sesame Workshop is great, as well, providing me with all sorts of resources, and The Jim Henson Company, although not as large as its counterparts, is still extremely supportive.”

Dosier says his dream job is to work for Disney and The Muppets Studio either “writing, producing, or doing laundry… whatever they want me to do!”

In his spare time, involved in RT, Dosier is also an there’s…no reason expert on The Muppet Show and “I hope to someday be not to be involved Sesame Street. He completely in charge of The with WSIU’s studentcurrently publishes Muppets and make all the head produced programs. his own blog called creative decisions. I would also The Muppet Mindset be thrilled to work for Sesame where he shares his Workshop in some capacity. The love of Muppet trivia. The blog can be found mantra I live my life by is from The Muppet at themuppetmindset.blogspot.com.

Movie, ‘Life’s like a movie, write your own ending. Keep believing, keep pretending.’ And “When I was 14, my interest in the Muppets that’s exactly what I plan to do!” and Sesame Street was rekindled for no specific reason,” says Dosier. “Eventually, I discovered the online Muppet community and became engrossed in it. Fast forward five years, and I was incredibly dissatisfied with the lack of Muppet news and the content being brought to the masses, so I started my blog.”

The Muppet Mindset has been live since 2009 and contains close to 400 posts about Sesame Street and Jim Henson projects such as The Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock, along with interviews with Muppet performers, writers, and artists. Surprisingly, Dosier didn’t have to seek permission from The Jim Henson Company, Sesame Workshop, or Disney’s The Muppets Studio to start his blog. “I just jumped right in and almost overnight I was accepted by the Muppet fan community and the companies,” he says.

The Muppets Studio has been one of the blog’s biggest supporters. “Through them,

Gartner Returns to Roots on River Region Evening Edition

had to develop new skills in order to bring my stories to life. I had to learn to shoot my own stand-ups, write the story, and edit the story – all while making it relatable to the public. The River Region was instrumental in helping me gain confidence in my journalistic abilities. It taught me how to be a professional before I was a professional.”

T

his year a familiar face returned to the River Region newsroom as WSIU and the College of Mass Communication & Media Arts welcomed back one of their own. Once a student in practice, now a seasoned professional, Rachel Gartner returns to her SIUC roots as the news director for the award-winning studentproduced news program River Region Evening Edition (RREE).

Gartner has a long history in Southern Illinois.

She attended high school in the area, and then earned a bachelor’s degree from SIUC in electronic media marketing & management in 2005. While enrolled at SIUC, Gartner worked with the RREE as the assistant news director and as a graduate assistant from 2005 to 2007.

As news director for the student-produced news program, Gartner has many ideas about how to refresh the River Region.

This spring the show will ease into several changes, which will include updating onscreen graphics, launching a program website, and broadcasting the program in a wide-screen format.

“Some of the changes we’re most excited about are being able to broadcast in 16 x 9 framing, which allows us to accommodate wide-screen monitors,” Gartner shares.

The River Region taught me how to be a professional before I was a professional.

After 2007, Gartner took the opportunity to gain more professional experience by working as a senior reporter and fillin anchor at WSIL-TV 3, the region’s ABC affiliate. Gartner also worked as an assistant producer, photographer, and as a multi-media journalist.

“Working at WSIL-TV and River Region helped me learn about every aspect of the industry,” says Gartner. “Early on I was put in a position where I really

“We also are eager to increase our online presence with the launch of a new RREE website that will feature our students’ work portfolios.

This will be extremely helpful to them when they begin looking for jobs after graduation.”

Currently, Gartner is continuing her work towards a Master’s degree in the College of Mass Communication & Media Arts. In addition to her responsibilities as news director, Gartner teaches an undergraduate news writing class for the SIUC RadioTelevision department.

When Gartner isn’t making magic happen in the newsroom she likes to watch her students’ newscasts, as well as Masterpiece Mystery, and WSIU-TV’s weekly local series WSIU InFocus.

HANK YOU to everyone who completed our WSIU Previews/ TV Viewing Survey either online or by mail. We received 117 surveys and look forward to more submissions in the months to come.

If you were unable to complete the survey, which was stapled in the center of your September/October 2010 issue of Previews, it’s not too late to participate. Just complete and mail the print version to us (mailing address provided on the survey) or take the survey online at wsiu.org/survey. If you no longer have the Previews guide issue in which the survey was included, call (618) 453-6160 to request a copy be mailed to you.

Overview of Survey Results We were pleased to learn that most of you enjoy Previews and find it valuable in many ways.

Positive feedback is always good to hear. It’s encouraging to know what we are doing right!

We also appreciate your honesty about certain aspects of the guide that frustrate you. The most frequently cited issues of concern include “TBA” listings (some station members do not have home computers or have slow Internet connections, so our online schedule isn’t helpful), inaccurate program listings (making it difficult to plan your viewing schedule), and incomplete digital channel schedules.

Although publishing Previews six times per year has been more cost-effective than printing and mailing it monthly, this arrangement poses unique problems, primarily the lack of adequate space for the programming details we would like to include. It is an ongoing challenge to try to fit two month’s worth of programming for three digital channels into the same amount of space that once featured one month’s schedule for only one channel.

The “TBA” listings some of you mentioned are a source of frustration for us, as well.

Because Previews is printed bimonthly, our programming staff is working to complete the second month’s listings before PBS has finalized that month’s schedule, which means program changes are often posted after Previews goes to press.

To alleviate some of the aggravation caused by last-minute programming changes, we update our online listings at wsiu.org. But, we understand that this action offers only a partial solution – and it is not helpful to those who cannot access our online schedule.

Other reasons that contribute to programming inaccuracies and “TBA” listings are production delays by a producer or distributor, incomplete pledge schedules at press time, and program changes made by PBS in response to current news events.

To address the inherent programming “holes” and inaccuracies that occur with bimonthly publications, we are considering the possibility of creating a smaller monthly guide that would include one month of program listings, expanded digital schedule grids, and a scaled-down section of programming and station news. We also may add the WSIU Radio broadcast schedule. Many of the other articles you usually see in Previews can be moved to quarterly newsletters, which could be included in established membership mailings. If adopted, these changes would go into effect at the start of the new fiscal year – July 1, 2011.

WSIU’s senior staff are discussing these options and other ideas using your Previews/ TV Viewing Survey responses as a guide. Please know that we will do all that we can to incorporate as many of the changes you recommended, so that we can serve you better.

Thank you again for sharing your insights with us. WSIU is truly Powered by You®!

SIU will soon benefit from a digital overhaul of its TV production facilities, thanks to a $749,000 Public Television Digital Transition Grant from the Rural Utilities Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

“This grant is critical to WSIU’s future,” says Greg Petrowich, Executive Director of WSIU Public Broadcasting. “With so many citizens watching us for free, over-the-air, we must maintain the highest quality in our digital signal.”

The funds will enable WSIU to replace failing analog equipment in its television production facilities with new digital studio cameras and lenses, camera pedestals, teleprompters, and camera control units. New digital switching, routing, and monitoring equipment will complete the upgrade, which could begin in the fall of 2011.

Providing locally-relevant programming to the region is a critical component of WSIU’s public service mission, which is why the stations devote more than 190 hours per year to local productions, including election programming and the weekly public affairs magazine series WSIU InFocus. Updating the TV production area will ensure that WSIU can produce local programming that meets today’s technical standards, which in turn will improve overall quality.

“Throughout rural Southern Illinois, our viewers depend on WSIU for programs that address issues of local importance,” says Petrowich. “This long-overdue modernization of our television production facilities will enable us to continue to produce locally-relevant content that meets the needs of the communities we serve.”

An added benefit of the digital renovation is the opportunity for students in the SIUC College of Mass Communication and Media Arts to gain professional experience with cuttingedge equipment they will likely be using in their careers after graduation.

“We’re thrilled to receive this USDA grant,” says Gary Kolb, Dean of the College of Mass Communication and Media Arts.

“It will allow us to introduce truly state of the art equipment into our production workflow at WSIU, which will benefit the stations, faculty, staff, and students. WSIU continues to be an integral part of our academic programs in the College and what benefits them directly impacts the education we deliver in our classrooms, as well as our research projects.”
