About Us
What is today known as the National Beholder was, in truth, one of the first companies to be established under the new rules dictated following the approval of the Popular Constitution of 1913. Given the necessity of establishing companies only through cooperative methods in order to ensure the equal distribution of riches from economic benefit obtained by the company, the then Britannic Journal was established by 217 partners, each of which provided a substantial initial quota for the start-up. Given the restructuring of the Britannic economy at the time in order to transition to a socialist system, there was extensive competition amongst different companies attempting to become key players in the field of journalism and media.
Britannic Journal enjoyed incredible success, quickly becoming one of the most versatile media outlets in the country. By 1950, it had become the most popular news outlet in the country, operating both in print, on the radio, and on live television throughout the country. In the 1963 Workers’ Assembly in December, it was decided that the name of the company should be changed to its currently incumbent one: National Beholder (officially inscribed as Reich Betracter, S.C.)
National Beholder today boasts a number of television services, including Difusión a Diario, or “Broadcast Daily”, a 24-hour news program that outlines the most important events occurring both in Britannia and around the world; it also has Series Popular, or “Popular Series”, which broadcasts popular shows, movies and documentaries produced both domestic (including such elements produced by National Beholder itself) and foreign. Furthermore, it works with a number of radio networks, providing everything from news to music to podcasts and more. Digitally, it also provides all services available on radio and television as well as updates on sports (matches, events, previews, etc.), weather, and a massive archive of news dating back to the start of the Britannic Journal as well as news from other outlets for certain important articles.
As a cooperative company, all remaining proceeds at the end of each fiscal year —after paying taxes and budgeting expansion projects for the following year— are equally distributed amongst all partners of the company. In order to join the company as a journalist, an individual must become a partner in the company, which implies paying an initial quota. Afterwards, most of its income comes from advertising, premium level content, and newspaper and magazine sales.
The budget and expenditure for the 2019 fiscal year superseded £5 billion for the first time, a record-high expenditure for the company. However, it was also the year of a record-high revenue for the company, bringing in over £7,4 billion after taxes. As such, the average dividend given to workers at the end of the fiscal year came in at just under £20.000 per worker. Given this high income, the investments being made into the future of the company are extremely notable, especially with regards to its projects for expansion into other countries.
