	ITV
		Independent Television (ITV) is the name given to the original network of British commercial television broadcasters, set up to provide competition to the BBC.
		The "Independent Television" service, so-called because of its independence from the BBC (which previously had held a monopoly on broadcasting in the UK), was to be made up of regions, with each region run by different companies.
		The Independent Broadcasting Authority was abolished, and was replaced by two new "light-touch" regulators: Independent Television Commission (otherwise known as the ITC) and the Radio Authority.

		Welsh television is currently comprised of BBC-1 Wales and BBC-2 Wales, the independent television (ITV) commercial franchise holder, Harlech Television (HTV Wales), and Sianel Pedwar Cymru ([S4C] Channel Four Wales), the Welsh equivalent of Britain's commercial Channel Four.
		From the outset of television in Wales, the mountainous topography of the country presented broadcasters with transmission problems; despite the construction of new and more powerful transmitters, there were gaps in service as late as the 1980s.
		South Wales did not receive ITV until Television Wales West (TWW) was awarded a franchise in 1958 and opened a transmitter in the South which also served the South-west of England.

		The televising of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth in June 1953 was an important landmark for British television with an estimated 20 million people watching the event on sets owned by neighbours and friends and on large screens erected in public venues for the occasion.
		Thereafter, television crime series became more diverse in their representations of the police and less wary of showing them as vulnerable to corruption than in the days when society had required them to be either paternalistic and parochial, like Dixon, or glorified social workers, like the police in Z Cars.
		Not that all television was as bland as Heartbeat in the nineties.

		This particular start up was shown twice or three times daily for only three months during a special interim service provided between the premature end of former contractor TWW in early March and the official opening of the new Harlech Television in late May of 1968.
		This stunning piece (‘Widespread World’ by John Dankworth) was probably the most successful special musical commission in the history of the ITV startup genre, and actually appeared as a daily ‘blip’ in the TAM television ratings of the day, as people tuned in early to catch it.
		The advent of this new television era saw station presentation technique begin to explore the potential of logos in colour, clever processing tricks, new styles of graphic design and rainbow gimmicks.

		While every American I know was glued to the TV (or plugged in to the net) yesterday for the Superbowl - in case you didn't know, the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Seattle Seahawks 21-10 - there was some fantsatic rugby going on in Europe throughout the weekend.
		Just as mainstream print media is getting into new media channels like blogs to fully engage with their readership, so mainstream broadcast media is now beginning to embrace ways of reaching their audiences in ways that appeal to those audiences.
		I think what's more valuable is that both blogs do provide a means for anyone to contribute comment, however poorly implemented it is at the moment, and represent a big step forward for the media in embracing blogging and raising its profile (CNN are highlighting their blog in their broadcast TV coverage of the DNC).
