The conference will explore the changing relationship between Broadcast News and Citizenship. These trends challenge traditional notions of citizenship and the role of broadcasters. While enabling exploration of a broad range of topics related to these phenomena, we seek to develop insights, in particular, into how the major news broadcasters of the UK - at the local and national levels - adapt to an increasingly active, engaged, and demanding public. The cost of the conference (including lunch and wine reception) is ?25. The reduced fee for students/unwaged is ?10.
