Description:
The broadcast flag is supposed to protect digital broadcast content from unauthorized distribution. This paper critically examines the broadcast flag as a security mechanism in the context of digital content control. A threat model analysis from the computer security field is presented as a framework for evaluating the flag. The model identifies stated and potential goals of the flag's proponents and evaluates how well the flag protects these goals from diverse attacks. The paper finds that the flag does not adequately protect content from Internet redistribution and highlights a new intellectual property paradigm that the broadcast flag does protect. ... Read more

Good information, terribly written
First, this book is tiny. Only 77 pages, including 10 for the glossary. And those pages are only about 5.25 x 7.75 inches. Use Amazon's Look Inside feature to get a feel for the wide spacing on those pages. I've had larger user manuals.

Second, the writing and presentation are so bad that they are a huge distraction. The first word of the book is misspelled. The first illustration is a grainy screenshot with arrows childishly drawn in. It's hard to find a page not marked with typos and grammar that is awkward at best.

Third, the book is partly a promotion tool for the author's web site. There are repeated references to what the author can do to help startup stations, and some discussion of fees.

But down deep, there are signs of an author who might really know how this really works. He lays out what pieces are necessary for a satellite TV station as well as alternatives in cable, over-the-air, and internet broadcasting. He also includes ballpark price estimates for each of these pieces. And he even adds bits of wisdom, such as choosing a satellite that already has direct-to-home viewers so your new station will have a larger initial potential audience.

For the quality of presentation, this book is terribly overpriced. But if that information is worth the money to you, it's available. Just be sure to use Look Inside so you'll know what you're getting.

It was Good for a General Overview
Amazon review of TV startup book : this book helped me go from a dream/vision to and actual plan . I agree with the author there's no way to tell you everything but this is a good resource guide . it gives you a general idea and really it's the only resource guide like it out there .so I enjoyed the book and wanted to give my opinion no one perfect as far as grammatical errors the only perfect book is the bible .

Useful Information
I found this book to be very useful and detailed. Though there was a lot of misspelled words, I still was able to get the knowledge I needed from it. I wish there were more books related to starting a network and all the projects covered in this book. I am implementing some of the procedures as I write this.

Great Book
Great book. It had all the information I was looking for. Those who write a negative review should read the title of the book. This book covers subjects such as technical know how, and cost to start a tv station.

This was a peace of joke
Don't wast that amount of money because I have been recharging TV Station and TV Shows and this didn't help me at all just the amount you spend over again and I would take it and through it an my trash can I don't have hatred to the author but he is a good writer but I don't think he knows any thing about this subject and it is to bad that the Internet doesn't offer more information I have been wanting start a TV Station for all my life and have a TV Show I've emailed all the people off of the website of TV Station and they don't write me back!

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! An online newspaper, also known as a web newspaper, is a newspaper that exists on the World Wide Web or Internet, either separately or as an online version of a printed periodical. Going online created more opportunities for newspapers, such as competing with broadcast journalism in presenting breaking news in a more timely manner. The credibility and strong brand recognition of well-established newspapers, and the close relationships they have with advertisers, are also seen by many in the newspaper industry as strengthening their chances of survival. The movement away from the printing process can also help decrease costs. Professional journalists have some advantages over blogs, as editors are normally aware of the potential for legal problems. Online newspapers are much like hard-copy newspapers and have the same legal boundaries, such as laws regarding libel, privacy and copyright, also apply to online publications in most countries, like in the UK. Also in the UK the Data Protection Act applies to online newspapers and news pages. ... Read more

Great for Extreme Journalists
This book seemed to be speaking mostly to war correspondents or extreme journalists.Much of the information was not helpful to a small town journalist who is just looking for tips on how to interview and ethics.

Most of the book consisted of examples of great writing. All you have to do is pick up the front page of any large newspaper and you will get high quality examples of journalism. I thought this was completely unnecessary.Not what I expected.

Behind the Scenes of a Story
The "Associated Press Reporting Handbook" is not so much a how-to handbook as it is a series of glimpses behind the scenes to see how reporters work and what it takes to create the magic that makes it into print.

Rather than acting as an all-knowing instructor, Jerry Schwartz treats the reader as a fellow journalist who might be able to learn from the other reporters he introduces.The majority of the book reads like a collection of human interest stories in which the subjects are the reporters and specific examples of the stories they produced.Every chapter begins with an AP article and is followed by the story behind the story as told by the journalists themselves.This makes the book both enjoyable and incredibly informative because it gives real world examples of what it takes to be a good journalist, what goes into a great story and many of the factors and circumstances a non-journalist would never even consider.

Schwartz does a good job of covering different types of stories and situations (overseas reporting, investigative journalism, etc) so just about every journalist should be able to find something useful.

Those considering a career in journalism will probably benefit most from this book as will those new journalists just learning the ropes or trying to find their niche.Seasoned pros may enjoy reading the experiences of other journalists and may even pick up some ideas, but I think those who will benefit most from this book will be the rookies. ...
