(10) The political context refers to the style of the market. My Plan  Intro:  MACRO.

LFTVD Question 3

Question 3 LFTVD part 4

'The differences in the codes and conventions of LFTVD reflect the different values, attitudes and beliefs of the audience that consumes them' How far do you agree with this statement? (30) The differences in codes and conventions of long form TV drama reflect the different values, attitudes and beliefs of the audience that consumes them as the products need to ensure that audiences can identify themselves in aspects of the TV drama in order for them to be engaged with the product.

DR is a public service broadcaster in Denmark therefore it needs to contain codes and conventions that reflect the values, attitudes and beliefs of its audiences as people there need to pay a Danish license fee of £291 per household for the service to run. If the audiences don't identify with the val
