It has been more than 20 years since the first proposal of Televising Parliament. Due to many issues, the proposal has never been executed. Kuomintang, the ruling party regained its power in 2008 and has overwhelming share as 2/3 seats in Legislator elections. The DPP, the opposition party, being deeply unsuspicious to KMT' s dominant power so put the act on the table. Dramatically the act was approved and Legislator conference webcasting starts from February 2009. This research employs Evertt M. Roger's ''Diffusion of Innovations'' (1962) to analyze how the Legislative Yuan Televising Parliament act had been initiated, formed and executed. Findings are as follows: 1. The barrier of Legislative conference live broadcast is not the hardware or either technical problem. Even in early days when there are only wireless broadcast television stations, TTY, CTV and TVS, the direct broadcast technology has been in place. The TV channels were well sufficient too. The political consideration is the bottleneck. 2. The research results showed the UK, US, Germany, France and other democratic advanced countries also had against opinions coming from the Congress itself for the Televising Parliament. The Congress requests the broadcast has to well maintain Congress' prestige image. If there is any screenshot in conference may result in negative impact to the Congress' image and dignity, the broadcast is requested to avoid until the meeting get back to normal. 3. Although the technology required to support live broadcast, such as television, the Internet, are not new technology, and broadcast system in the world is not a new topic, but at the Republic of China, the Legislator conference goes live is the first broadcast applications. That is in line with Roger 's Innovation Diffusion Theory inference. The future of conference broadcast system will continue, or suspend due to political pressure, is also in line with the direction of the theory discussion. |
