The study is based on previous research focusing on three main areas of scholarship, drawn from a wider range of international theatres. These three bodies of work focus on: (1) factors affecting the selection, construction and presentation of international news; (2) how news editors and news directors function as gatekeepers of international news within newsrooms, and how they prioritise international news; and (3) whether cultural training occurs in Australian newsrooms, and if so, how it influences the gatekeeper’s news selection process, and through it, world news coverage in the Australian news media. This study partially replicated research completed by Australian media scholar Peter Putnis in 1996 (Putnis 1996), and extended it to three Brisbane news bulletins: a commercial television bulletin, a public radio news bulletin, and a commercial online portal. The data obtained from the news bulletins were gathered during a constructed week to analyse whether the selection and framing around the presentation of international news in Australia had changed since Putnis’ seminal work. In addition to the aforementioned qualitative analysis of media content, a number of news editors and media experts across Australia were interviewed to determine their self-perception of gatekeeping responsibilities; and assess their degree of agency as gatekeepers in conjunction with institutional news priorities and directions. Within this framework, the gatekeepers were asked how important cultural training was for them and how they believed such training changed the reporting outcomes. These interviews were then used to develop a radio documentary that was broadcast on the national community radio network. Using these interviews as both data for qualitative research and source content for a media production demonstrates 2 Australian Foreign News Coverage in the Global News Environment how such information-gathering methodologies are shared and used in both journalism studies research and journalism production. The argument proposed in this study is that international news is not prioritised in Australian journalism; and that a lack of world news coverage persists because Australian news editors believe international news is not important to their audiences —even though Australia is a multicultural country. It then argues, based on interviews with news editors and news directors, that cultural training is needed to create awareness about events happening outside Australia. These research aims are demonstrated through both the series of radio documentaries, and the exegetical component of this work. 3 Australian Foreign News Coverage in the Global News Environment Statement of originality and ethical clearance This work has not previously been submitted for a degree or diploma in any university.

  • Dear Ms Kleinig I Refer to Your Recent Phone Call to My Office And
    From: Gerard Henderson Sent: Tuesday, 14 May 2013 4:33 PM To: Xanthe Kleinig Cc: Mark Scott; Richard Finlayson; Michael Millett Subject: RE: query from Media Watch Dear Ms Kleinig I refer to your recent phone call to my office and subsequent email to me (dated 9 May 2013) advising that the ABC 1 Media Watch program “is interested in the declarations or otherwise of expert commentators from institutes and think tanks who contribute frequently to the public conversation, especially in the media”. I watched the Media Watch credits last night. I noted that Media Watch presenter Jonathan Holmes has three journalists/researchers and four librarians in addition to a production team of around ten (not including studio/camera/editing crew). In view of Media Watch’s substantial research staff, I am surprised that you do not seem to be aware of the aims and practices of The Sydney Institute. The Sydney Institute is not a think tank. Rather, it is a policy forum for debate and discussion. The Sydney Institute has no policies, does no lobbying and does not advocate causes. Speakers at the Institute, over the past six months, include Senator Christine Milne, Anthony Albanese, Tony Abbott, Senator Bob Carr and Senator George Brandis. As you should be aware, speakers address the Institute for about 30 minutes and engage in questions/discussion for a further 30 minutes. All talks delivered are published in full (subject to only stylistic editing and/or the rare elimination of defamatory material) in The Sydney Papers Online and downloaded on the Institute’s podcast.

  • 14. Forgetting PNG? Australian Media Coverage of Papua New Guinea
    MEDIA FREEDOM IN MELANESIA 14. Forgetting PNG? Australian media coverage of Papua New Guinea Abstract: Coverage of Papua New Guinea (PNG) in Australian media has been a source of resentment and dissatisfaction among academic writers and journalists within PNG and in Australia, and PNG activists and politi- cal leaders since the former Territory’s independence in 1975. A survey of Australian media coverage during 2007-11 found there was a low volume of coverage and much of the content was negative. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) provided an exception by maintaining a Port Moresby correspondent. The present study finds the volume of coverage has increased slightly with indications of more positive approaches in reporting on the country. It contrasts disinterest in PNG among established Australian press and commercial television, with the ongoing contribution of ABC, and the ‘new media’ Guardian Australia making a targeted and well-serviced entry into the field. Keywords: Australian Broadcasting Corporation, coverage, foreign correspondence, Papua New Guinea, political journalism, Radio Australia, The Guardian, The Sydney Morning Herald LEE DUFFIELD Independent researcher, Brisbane Introduction AS Papua New Guinea (PNG) forgotten by Australia after independ- ence in 1975? That is a conclusion which could be drawn from the Wvery limited coverage of the former Territory which occurred in Australian mass media. It was an omission marked by some exasperation, re- sentment and dissatisfaction among academics, journalists and political lead- ers within PNG, noted by non-PNG observers such as those cited here. Thirty years post-independence, the question was addressed in a research collabora- tion based on monitoring and assessment of actual levels of coverage.

    2011 ANNUAL REPORT THE INSTITUTE BUILDING OUR NEW HOME In July 2011, the United States Studies Centre took up residence in its new home in the Institute Building. With the recent rapid growth in the Centre’s staff and activities, and plans for future expansion in our research, education, and analysis activities, we had stretched beyond the capacity of the historic John Woolley offices. The Institute Building sits on the other side of the University of Sydney campus and dates from the Victorian era, when it was Australia’s first school for the hearing impaired. It provides us with more than twice the space we had previously and is designed specifically for our requirements, including being equipped with the latest in IT and audio-visual technology. For the first time the Centre includes a dedicated tutorial room for the growing number of students enrolling in our undergraduate and postgraduate courses. We also have additional office space for academic and administrative staff, enabling us to accommodate our expanding research and events programs.
