Question 46 of 50
46. Question
2 pointsRead the passage below and answer the questions that follow based on your understanding of the passage.
Producers respond to advertisersโ perceptions that churning deeply felt emotions will interrupt viewersโ receptivity to a commercial message. In this environment, programming should avoid controversy and always strive for the highest ratings. Producers โshould never forget that there is safety in numbersโ and โalways remember that comedy, adventure and escapism provide the best atmosphere for sellingโ. Programming that examines human complexity and social issues that do not yield to easy analysis or simple solutions create an uncomfortable dissonance with commercials for consumer products that promise those easy answers. Advertising values push public discussion and debate to the periphery of cultural space, while the dominant cultural conversation is restricted to talh about โdesire and fantasy, pleasure and comfortโ.
Print Journalism also grapples with advertising pressures that influence news gathering efforts. Historically, an ideal of independence in news gathering and reporting functions emerged symbolically as a โfire wallโ of separation between the editorial and business staffs of daily newspapers. The fire wall protected editorial decisions about what to print by insulating them from the knowledge of how news reporting affected advertisers and by extension the newspaperโs financial status. Historically this ideal has been more or less approximated in the face of policies to provide favorable coverage of prominent local advertisers and self censor unflattering stories that threaten the paperโs financial stability.
