The author examines three types of value that are essential for establishing the social value and impact of Public Service Media in contemporary market-based and –driven societies: intrinsic, exchange and use. These three, taken together, are the crux of PSM’s social value. Social value and impact are treated as strategic issues, the reality of which is linked with stakeholder theory to advance an inclusionary and relationship-centered approach. The author highlights seven practical implications of the theory discussion for PSM executive managers and closes with four complications in achieving added value by the PSM enterprise in the media ecology of networked communications. The substance of this article was an invited intellectual contribution independent from but relevant to a current project undertaken by the European Broadcasting Union to develop social impact indicators for PSM assessment.
