ABSTRACT
In several quarters, there have been allegation
making round, that state governments use their state Broadcast media as
propaganda machinery. The focus is to investigate such allegation
using Enugu State Broadcasting Service (ESBS)
radio/TV as a case study. The study was based on critical theory by
staurt Hall. The theory views the means by which the “haves of society
gain the willing support of the “have nots” to maintain the status quo. The
study uses empirical method observing the five chapters structural arrangement,
with each chapter assigned a specific role to play for the overall success of
producing a reliable result. The researcher consulted relevant
literature to raise secondary data while survey method was used to generate
primary data for analysis. The data generated using questionnaire
techniques were tested using chi-share goodness of fit test formular.
Data were presented in tables and extensively discussed to enable the
researcher draw his conclusion and make some recommendations. The
researcher though did not find Enugu state government using it’s broadcast
outfits as propaganda machinery, but strongly recommends that the management of
the broadcast stations should overhaul it’s programmes in order to drop those
perceived by the media audiences as sycophantic, wherein presenters use them to
sing praises for the state government unnecessarily.
