Introduction to The Operation of Media Companies |
Typical business entities serve one constituency, their customers. Major media companies must meet the needs of two separate constituencies. Without an audience, media companies have nothing to offer their advertisers. Without advertisers, media companies have no revenue. How media companies meet the needs of their two publics is the focus of this introductory class. Students will examine the structure and best practices of media such as television, newspapers, Internet, magazines, and radio. How do they operate today? How are they preparing for the future? Students will also examine the field of public relations and spend time exploring emerging media platforms. Industry veterans supply a wealth of real-world experience. This class will benefit individuals who are interested in how media operate as a for-profit business, or as an overview for those interested in pursuing a career in media.
