While the public broadcaster remains the dominant national player - in terms of reach - in both radio and television, commercial broadcasters have introduced a substantial level of diversity in the industry. Public broadcasting faces serious competition from the numerous private and independent broadcasters, especially in and around the capital Kampala and major urban centres. In fact, the private/commercial sector clearly dominates the industry in most respects, notably productivity and profitability. The public broadcaster, which enjoys wider geographical coverage, faces the challenge of trying to fulfill a broad mandate with little funding. This makes it difficult for UBC to compete with the more nimble operators in the commercial/private sector. Overall, there appears to be a healthy degree of pluralism and diversity in terms of ownership. 410 0$aPublic broadcasting in Africa series. 517 1 $aOn air, Uganda 606 $aPublic broadcasting$xGovernment policy$zZimbabwe 606 $aBroadcasting policy$zZimbabwe 615 0$aPublic broadcasting$xGovernment policy 615 0$aBroadcasting policy 676 $a384.54065 701 $aLugalambi$b George W$01097554 712 02$aAfriMAP. 712 02$aOpen Society Initiative for Southern Africa. 712 02$aOpen Society Institute.$bMedia Programme. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524880703321 996 $aUganda$94202547 997 $aUNINA
