1. BBC stands for British Broadcasting Corporation.
2. A conundrum in public service broadcasting is how to ensure that a publicly- funded broadcast can remain independent from political control. It ensures that it is British people who pay for the BBC, not the government.
3. BBC's famous mission statement is to inform, educate and entertain.
4. BBC has a remit to be the bbc's most popular channel and attract high viewing figures.
5. BBC news at 6 fits into the remit as it is shown at the start of prime time when a lot of people are watching TV.
Presenters-
1. The presenters are Sophie Raworth and George Alagiah.
2.The presenters of BBC News wear very smart casual clothes for example Sophie Raworth wears dresses to show that she is smart and George Alagiah wears a suit with a tie which shows that he is smart and to show to the audience that he's taking it serious/ mature.
3.The TV News programme might use many presenters to make sure the viewers do not listen to just one presenter throughout the whole of the 28 minutes which will entertain the audience.
4.Other reporters or presenters are used in the TV news programme to present different news stories because the audience could get bored of watching one presenter throughout the whole news programme presenting each story to the viewers.
5.There is a balanced male and female presenters as they have one female and one male that is always seen on the show which makes it easy and shows to the audience that they are a diverse company and programme.

1) The first shot is the graphics of the name of the news show.
2) The opening sequence includes graphics as it has graphics in the first few shots of the BBC news title and a moving screen which continuously shows moving animations.
3) Music is used in the opening sequence as it is used as the theme song of the BBC news title.
4) The audience are told the several stories that will be shown throughout the programme and all of the titles of the stories are introduced to them so that they know what they are going to be watching in that episode.
Studio mise-en-scène-
1) The audience can see the cameras that are set in place to record the programme as well as the desks, the lights, the screen behind that the news is presented on as well as the studio.
2) The presenters are behind desks and I think this is because they have scripts or newspapers behind them to read everything that they need to say. Also, it looks more professional therefore it appeals to the audience,
3) Journalists and technology such as the cameras are visible to the audience and this shows them how everything done so that it feels more realistic to the viewers.
4) The studio is red as a background and has 4 main colours; black, white, red and grey.

Institution

2) Ofcom has a set of rules which is called the Broadcasting code and they make sure that the TV news is fair and accurate by letting viewers call and complain about what they have seen so that OFCOM can review it.
3) I agree with the accusation that the news is dumbed down because in one of the shows they put a down arrow on an animated receipt when it clearly said decrease beside it.
