"It will inspire the scientific debate in the wake of the recent reform of the Broadcasting Communication.' - Wouter Pieke, Head of Unit State aid to Media, European Commission 'Governments across Europe are revisiting the appropriate level of public sector intervention in digital media markets, provoking a lively debate about the necessary regulatory toolkit. Karen Donders has pioneered academic study in this very topical area.' - Ross Biggam, Director General Association of Commercial Television in Europe."
"'Karen Donders investigates the transition from public service broadcasting to public service media, focusing especially on multi-stakeholder negotiations between the European Commission and the EU Member States. Her evaluation of the impact of State aid policy on public service broadcasting finds that the European Commission's positions have fostered accountability and responsiveness to the requirements of a digital era. She concludes that the Commission has a holistic view of public service media and is not overly driven by competition policy and market failure arguments. This is a major contribution providing insight into the dynamics of change in a controversial policy area. This book will spark a productive debate among scholars and policy makers.' - Robin Mansell, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK 'Public service media are key to the European democratic project.-"
"Good public service is based on editorial independence, high ethical standards, sustainable funding and the freedom to adapt the organization and its editorial services to the audience's needs in a digital world. Karen Donders stresses the need for a coherent EU policy and legal framework to enable public service broadcasters to evolve in the digital age. Only within such a context can there be a true dual system, comprising public service and commercial broadcasting, which is the cornerstone of the European media landscape.' - Ingrid Deltenre, Director General European Broadcasting Union 'I welcome this thorough research on State aid for public broadcasting.-"
