Is Wales portrayed fairly on TV?

Three of Welsh television's most influential decision makers will examine whether Wales is portrayed fairly on TV, at a Cardiff University debate at the National Eisteddfod. BBC Cymru Wales's Head of Content Production Sian Gwynedd, Angharad Mair, Executive Director of Tinopolis Cymru and BAFTA Cymru chair, and S4C's Creative Content Director Amanda Rees will discuss whether the media in Wales properly reflects the nation. The School of Journalism, Media & Cultural Studies (JOMEC) debate, hosted by lecturer and broadcaster Sian Morgan Lloyd, takes place at the Cardiff University tent on Wednesday 9 August at 14:00. This annual media discussion, now a popular fixture in the National Eisteddfod programme, will include lively debate and an opportunity for the audience to put questions to senior figures in the industry. A rapidly changing industry. Lloyd said: "We at JOMEC, as part of Cardiff University, relish this annual opportunity at the National Eisteddfod to gather creatives and members of the Welsh language media together for debate. "There's no doubt the media is central to our political and cultural life in both languages in Wales but here, as in countries across the world, we are having to adapt daily to the rapid changes facing the industry.." The discussion comes at a time when broadcasters in Wales are adapting to a constantly changing media environment.
