Canada lives here : the case for public broadcasting / by Rowland, Wade,1944-author.;

Includes bibliographical references and index."Canada Lives Here tells the tumultuous story of public broadcasting in Canada, from its inception in 1933 to the CBC's current, controversial attempts to adapt to collapsing revenues and new technologies. It explores in detail the struggle to preserve public space and foster community in an environment devoted to profit-making, arguing that the ideals of public service broadcasting are more relevant now than ever. Rowland, author of the influential Saving the CBC: Balancing Profit and Public Service (2013), identifies the issues crucial to the CBC's survival and proposes carefully considered policy options. This is a book for everyone who wants to understand what's really at stake with the threatened eclipse of the nation's most important cultural institution."--

The CBC : how Canada's public broadcaster lost its voice (and how to get it back) / by Cayley, David,author.;

Conceived as an institution that would embody Canada as a whole, the CBC now struggles in a fractured media landscape. Its narrow programming choices, dogmatic politics, and politically correct hosts cater to ever shrinking audiences. The once proud broadcaster has alienated so many viewers and listeners that Canada's Conservative Party now sees a winning strategy in promising to defund it. Author and producer David Cayley, who for three decades made radio documentaries for CBC Radio's Ideas, goes back to the CBC's roots to examine how it lost its way and to ask searching questions about the nature of media and the "public" in the twenty-first century. He calls for a bold new vision-a CBC that transcends its recent past and rebuilds as a unifying force, championing curiosity, dialogue, and a pluralistic Canadian identity.
