This result suggests that CNN is a more global-oriented news network and is mainly operated by the market-driven business control mechanism, whereas Korean news networks are more national-oriented organizations and thereby focus on maintaining a good relationship with the government, selecting and reporting of news stories.</p> <p>Another major finding is that there are high similarities in the international news selection processes and content between the KBS and SBS news networks. It arises from the homogeneous profiles of Korean television journalists and highly uniform newsroom editorial procedures and news sources.</p> 1994 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1173981693 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1173981693 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
