ABSTRACT
This research studies that impact of media ownership and control on television broadcast content with CRBC Calabar as a case study.
The project reviews the origin of the broadcast media as well as the impact of media ownership on broadcast content. It also reviews media control in Nigeria and finally how ownership influence affects the Broadcast station.
Survey methodology was used to collect data from respondents through questionnaire and these data were analyzed using simple percentage and table.
The data collected revealed that owners interfere greatly in broadcast contents. This has led to the lack of interest by the public which can only be solved if there is objectivity and fairness that is balanced in broadcast contents.
After the research, it was found out that the broadcast media owned by government is controlled by its owners. This is viewed on the ownership pattern and government to a large extent, interferes in the package and presentation of programmes.
