Effects of Market Competition on Taiwan Newspaper Diversity

This study investigates effects of market competition on newspaper diversity in Taiwan. Using Simpson's D, this study found that overall newspaper market diversity increased after a new daily newspaper entered the market. Although overall diversity increased, the traditional newspapers decreased their content diversity. The new newspaper offered a higher level of content diversity than traditional newspapers, which differentiated themselves by becoming more specialized.     

解析中国未来的报业市场结构

从产业结构分析,我国报业供过于求,处于过度竞争的态势。在一些区域性市场上,部分报纸已经淘汰出局。这缘于“发行螺旋”的规律在起作用,发行量最大的报纸所占的广告份额超出它的发行份额,而发行量较少的几家报纸的广告份额低于它们的发行份额。大量广告流向在发行市场上处于优势地位的报纸,从而加剧弱势报纸的经营困难。网络的冲击,加速了弱势报纸退出市场的过程。可以预见,在三到五年的时间内,为数不少的二线报纸将在市场上消失。     

中日两国日报发行市场集中度比较

通过比较发现,中日两国日报发行市场集中度存在明显差异。我国日报发行市场集中度较低,近年来变化幅度不大,属于分散竞争型市场结构;而日本日报发行市场集中度很高,近年来呈下降趋势,属于寡占型市场结构。造成这种差异的主要原因在于管理体制、市场经营行为和市场绩效等方面。今后需要有针对性地调整报业管理体制,借鉴日本先进的发行方法,改进我国日报发行工作,适度提高日报发行市场集中度,做大做强报纸产业。     

Market Competition for Cable Television: Reexamining Its Horizontal Mergers and Industry Concentration

This article reviews the recent mergers among multiple-system operators (MSOs), investigates their impact on market concentration, and examines cable multiple ownership rules as well as antitrust applications. The implication of telephone company (telco) entry is then discussed. It was concluded that the exhibition stage of the cable industry is currently moderately concentrated but has reached its highest degree in 20 years. The wave of mergers shifted from the high profile telco-MSO strategic alliances to the major MSOs' consolidations aimed at building efficient market clusters. The trend of market concentration is expected to continue given the current economic and regulatory climate.     

报料新闻:广州报业竞争的一大"主战场"

拥有三大报业集团的广州报业向来以竞争激烈而闻名全国。近年来,随着经济社会的发展以及读者阅读兴趣的转移,广州报业竞争的“主战场”也较以往有了一些新的变化: 首先,主流新闻的地位愈显突出。所谓主流新闻,是指各级领导重视、群众广为关注的重大时事政治、经济新闻。且不说《南方日报》、《广州日报》这两家机关报,就连一向偏重社会新闻的《羊城晚     

当前报业市场竞争现状、问题及对策

市场竞争是商品进入买方市场之后的必然结果,报业市场亦然。所谓报业市场竞争,本应泛指其一切产品的市场竞争,而本文仅取其狭义的概念,即专指报业的主打产品——报纸——的市场竞争。     

报业、广播电视业与证券资本市场

资本市场是社会经济各主体之间进行资本融通的各种形式及与之相伴的各种交易关系的总和;既包括证券资本市场,又包括金融资本市场,还包括产权交易关系,并且要受到财政资本的影响与制约。当前,新闻传播媒介经营管理的实务界与理论界议论得最多的,实际上是新闻传播媒介介入证券资本市     

Circulations,Revenues, and Profits in a Newspaper Market with Fixed Advertising Costs

This article investigates a model in which 2 newspapers compete between them for readers with differentiated preferences and advertise new products at a cost per reader that decreases as the circulation increases. The model can account for the empirical regularity that the revenues from advertising and the profits of the newspapers increase more than proportionally with the circulation. A complementary finding is that a larger number of potential advertisers lowers the profits of both newspapers.     

Intermedia Competition for Advertising in Small Daily Markets

A survey of 131 advertisers in the markets of six small daily newspapers revealed that the majority of advertisers were unknowledgeable about advertising conditions in their markets and that the majority of advertisers believed small dailies compete with other media for their advertising dollars. Unlike run-of-press (ROP) and local advertisers, insert and national advertisers tended to be knowledgeable about advertising. ROP advertisers cited both broadcast and other forms of print as competitors to dailies. Insert advertisers cited only other delivery vehicles as competitors.     

试论报业大战中的"最佳收益点"

近几年来,报业战此起彼伏,在某些城市尤其剧烈.它可以调整报业结构,优化报业资源,起一定的积极作用,但要看到它是把双刃剑,也带来不少负面影响,况且一家报社选择降价措施究竟能有多大收益,很让人怀疑.首先根据一些学者的看法,要通过销售量的增加来弥补降价造成的利润亏空,则价格弹性系数至少必须是4:1,即价格每下降一个百分点,必须对应四个百分点的销售增长.现实生活中价格弹性系数很少有超过2:1的.其次,价格优势通常是不长久的,通过降价达到的销售量的增加,如果没有其他有效的后续措施,会因为竞争对手采取同样的降价手段,毕竟降价很容易效仿,销售量会重新降低,回到原来的水平,市场份额将保持原状,只不过整个市场平均价格水平降低.第二,人们对一项产品或服务的最低价格水平最为关注,会把这一价格作为日常衡量同一产品或者服务的标准,有时甚至成为人们一生的心理参考价位,报业战会扭曲读者对报纸的心理价位.

报纸需求弹性与报纸定价研究

本文研究了长沙市几种主要报纸的需求弹性，通过调查分析，得出了以下几个主要结论：1、报纸需求的弹性系数较低，报纸需求量受外界因素影响较小，决定报纸需求量最主要的因素是报纸质量；2、专业报的需求价格弹性系数低于综合报的需求价格弹性系数；3、报纸需求价格弹性系数是专业报价格确定的一个重要因素；4、对于综合报来说，低价竞争是其迅速扩大发行量的重要手段，但低价竞争的作用有限；5、报纸需求的价格弹性系数是度量报纸忠诚度及蔓誉度的一个较为科学的指标。     

Market Competition and Programming Diversity: A Study on the TV Market in Taiwan

This article investigates the issue of the relation between market competition and programming diversity in Taiwan's TV market. For more than 20 years, Taiwan's TV market had an oligopolistic structure with 3 networks dominating the market. With the popularity of satellite TV during the 1990s, the oligopoly rapidly ended. This study examines how programming diversity was affected by the changing TV market structure in Taiwan. Programming diversity was measured by 3 methods using program data from the 3 networks operating in Taiwan: vertical programming diversity, horizontal programming diversity, and prime-time programming strategies. The results indicate a negative relation between market competition and programming diversity. Although the market competition increased from 1986 to 1996, this study discovered that the degree of programming diversity was reduced year by year.     

Local Ownership and Radio Market Structure

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 changed the nature of radio markets. Recent policy recommendations from the Federal Communications Commission and the U.S. Congress have led to questions about localism in local radio markets. This study analyzes station ownership, the number of clusters, radio programming, and audience data from 32 radio markets and compares the information for the years 2000, 2004, 2007, and 2010. The results suggested a degree of stability for the types and size of radio owners, the market power of local radio clusters, and the number and type of formats.     

文化地理、党报与城市形象

本文以媒介建构主义对符号现实的建构机制为理论依据,通过分析三份中央党报<人民日报>(包括<海外版>)、<光明日报>和<中国青年报>对全国31个主要城市的新闻报道为例,来研究分析中国城市媒介形象的建构机制.研究发现,我国的新闻生产很大程度上受制于我国强大的"政治-经济-社会"的文化地理模式,这种模式不仅决定了重要的新闻流向分布呈以"北京"和"上海"为中心向全国扩散的饼状结构;而且也直接影响了我国主要城市在报纸媒介中的形象不是行政形象就是经济形象.这种单一的城市媒介形象在当前国际化的市场竞争环境下,与个性化城市形象的塑造目标是格格不入的,这是我们需要思考的下一个重要课题.     

管理软件行业市场结构及市场策略分析

根据赛迪顾问的市场调研结果,2002年中国管理软件市场销售总额与2001年同比增长52.6%。管理软件市场之所以能够保持高速增长,主要在于管理软件市场供需双方总量在2001年都保持迅猛增长:一方面,国家“以信息化带动工业化”战略的不断推进与中国加入WTO等利好因素,使得企业用户对全方位企业解决方案的需求快速增长,特别是ERP、CRM等新的管理理念的提出,使企业对管理软件的需求更加情有独钟;另一方面,由于国内外各类软件厂商纷纷抢滩管理软件市场,日趋激烈的竞争环境使得该市场的供给能力与供给总量均有提高。一、管理软件市场结构分析1.管…
