ABSTRACT

    This research project examines the implications of news commercialization on management of broadcast Media in Nigeria with emphasis on NTA Enugu.
    Thus, the issue at stake on this topic is to find out what impact does news commercialization has on the Mass audiences even when media claims to be the watch dog of the society.  Therefore, media should be ready to accept the dangers posed by news commercialization and such dangers include media questions on objectivity, professionalism, and fairness now being undermined by limited access to news airtime.
    The educationist, sociologist, politicians, the Businessmen and even the religions minded are all interested in this debate.
    In this research I decided to use survey research method ascertain the validity of various hypothesis formulated.
    The result of this research will useful to students of Mass Communication Media experts, government and the society at large.
