The paper attempts to outline the Polish National Broadcasting Council’s establishing and evaluating its activities. The author observes that after 1989, one of the most essential achievements of the Polish media market was the creation of the National Broadcasting Council (Krajowa Rada Radiofonii i Telewizji KRRiT), that laid the foundations for a new media landscape in Poland. In a broader perspective, despite being criticized, the National Broadcasting Council is to meet high expectations for the electronic media regulation, its impact on state policy in implementing cultural and educational tasks by the Polish community broadcasters. Concurrently, making mistakes and handling criticism was partly caused by the Council politicization bias, a large executive subordination that doesn’t comply both with the Law “On Television and Radio Broadcasting” and European practice. Notable, the success of community broadcasters, who value interaction with viewers and listeners, should be a model for audiovisual sector to emulate.

Consumer and military interest in biofeedback and neurofeedback services has increased. BCIA-accredited didactic training programs report greater enrollment. BCIA's applications for our three certification programs (biofeedback, neurofeedback, and pelvic muscle dysfunction biofeedback) are 20% higher than 2010. This is the time to redouble your marketing efforts to take advantage of our field's rising popularity. Although new media services offer unprecedented opportunities to communicate with your audience, they also carry unparalleled risks.

What is journalism’s future? ‘Digital: after the deluge’ considers the ‘new media’ services—blogs, Google, Twitter, Facebook—that have transformed the way that people gather, edit, access, and consume news, but that also have had severe consequences for the news industry. The argument was that this new information ecology, or ‘fifth estate’, would inform people reliably, promote debate, and hold power to account. Journalism can only do this if it is trusted, and it will only be trusted if it embraces a discipline of verification. The activities of Matt Drudge, the American West Coast blogger, Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, and the secret service leaker, Edward Snowden, are also discussed.
