Abstract

In this interview, Des Freedman discusses his work as an activist in the Media Reform movement, as a critic of media policy, and as a theorist of media power. Freedman explains his approach to media power as a material and relational property, distinguishing it from liberal pluralist, cultural studies and political-economic approaches. Discussing media power in the context of the recent BBC charter review process and the earlier Leveson Inquiry into the ethics of the British press, Freedman clarifies his proposal for a research focus on ‘non-decisionmaking’ in the policy field. Ultimately, he explains how guiding principles, programmes of action, and an understanding of the contradictory nature of media power are all necessary to bring about revolutionary reform.
媒体政策、媒体改革与媒体权力:德斯·弗里德曼访谈录
在这次采访中,德斯·弗里德曼讨论了他作为媒体改革运动的积极分子、媒体政策的批评者和媒体权力理论家的工作。弗里德曼将他研究媒体权力的方法解释为一种物质和关系属性,将其与自由多元主义、文化研究和政治经济方法区分开来。在最近英国广播公司章程审查过程和早期对英国新闻界道德的莱韦森调查的背景下讨论媒体权力时,弗里德曼阐明了他对政策领域“非决策”研究的建议。最后,他解释了指导原则、行动计划以及对媒体权力矛盾性的理解,这些都是实现革命性改革所必需的。
