Dear Skymedia,

Type of broadcaster (TV/radio/both): Radio
Abbreviation (if one):

We would be interested in discussing about radio with the NationStates Broadcasting Union, and possible franchising of our station brands to other corporations, which are:
Note: Where a brand has alternate names these are indicated in brackets ()
Chiltern FM (Chiltern Radio)
SGR FM (SGR Citynamehere)

XFM


Our company would be interested in helping spread our brands globally, and WestmareGlobal would be open to some talks with other broadcasters, including yourself, on this.

Application
Name of Broadcaster: Savedlish Broadcasting Company
Type of broadcaster (TV/radio/both): both
Abbreviation (if one): SBC
Country: Savedland
The United Federated Districts of Hevora. Or Savedland, as it is often hideously anglicized...

We are a large, free, powerful and beautiful country with a very long history that stretches back thousands upon thousands of years.

We are a union of many nations and cultures. The most dominant and shared by almost everyone is that of the Hevoran (Savedlish) People. It has its roots lying in an ancient creole culture that emerged from extensive contact between a bronze age hellenic and norse civilization which evolved convergeantly on an fictional, alternate universe Earth.

Bit weird, I know. But we're a lovely culture if you care enough to get to know us! :D

The NSBU is honoured that a company as large and prestigious as yours seeks to obtain a deal such as this when we are only coming out of the infant stages of business. On behalf of the board we would be happy to enter a partnership with you as it will allow your customers to access the shows and services offered by NSBU members and it shall also (hopefully) help our company access wider audiences. We hope that this deal shall last into the distant future and that it shall produce long-lasting positive results for both our companies.

Also, we shall update the list of members once you have accepted as we understand that 'jque' joining the NSBU was part of the agreement once accepted.


Of course we are able to confirm this.
Classical liberal.
  • My nation is called the Dangish Empire, officially
  • The population is circa 500 million
  • It is an imperial federation
  • The term Dungeyland while only technically referring to one colony can be used for the entire Empire (think Holland)
  • The Dangish Empire is a constitutional monarchy, our monarch is Queen Ellen I

To Kington Langley:
OOC: Any station submitted as WestmareGroupName Radio etc. is a parody of real-life British radio groups.
Is it acceptable for my country to make multiple applications from various groups?

BTW, I would like to see this union have some RP's - would be good fun!

Savedland: It doesn't mean that government-owned or state broadcasters are banned, it simply means that your company doesn't have to be one so you can keep your state broadcaster in the NSBU if you wish. I will also wait for your response before adding the broadcasters you submitted to take SBC's place.

Oh. Very well then. Please accept my apologies. SBC would like to remain.
Also, if you had the kindness to add the other broadcasters, as well, please do.

OOC: Excellent idea, I was planning on beginning an RP discussion now that we have a moderate number of members. I am however going on holiday tomorrow so I will get around to making a thread for RPing ideas in about 3 weeks time, please feel free to submit ideas below if you wish and I apologise in advance for the delay.

I suggest that we do something to get us used to the idea of RPing as news teams. We should do a thread where we are all controling news teams, but we optionally control other people as well, getting used to how a news team would operate, though complications could come up. I still think it may work, still keeping some of the dynamic nature, with controlling other aspects and characters of the covered event being an option.
