The case studies cover a six-month period in 1999 and draw on all media over that period. The three case studies are: the violence in East TImor at the time ofthe 1999 independence ballot, the imprisonment in Yugoslavia of Prall and Wallace, two employees of CARE Australia, and the floods in Mozambique. While the three case studies collectively exhibit many ofthe standard characteristics ofmedia coverage ofhumanitarian issues, individually they dif­ fer significantly in the scale andorientation ofcoverage. Wesug­ gest that a significantfactor in these differences was the relation­ ship between the sources for the stories and the journalists, which in turn depended on other factors. We review the adequa­ cy of the Hall and Ericson positions on the source-journalist relationship in explaining these differences, and suggest that a field analysis derivedfrom Bourdieu is helpful in explaining the involvement ofsources from the political, economic and military fields, which in turn impacted on the relationship ofthe media to the stories. Introduction On December 27, 2003, while many people in the Western world were enjoying their Christmas holidays, more than 40,000 Iranians were killed in an earthquake in the ancient city of Bam.

The debate was continuing at the end of the 12 months under review, for the Productivity Commission was inquiring into media ownership rules, content regulations, licence fees and the impending switch from analogue to digital technologies. Some media proprietors were suggesting the new technologies were making the old laws obsolete. At John Fairfax Holdings, another year, another chief executive. Bob Muscat became the third Fairfax CEO in three years to resign. Editor John Lyons departed sacked or otherwise, depending on your source. And there was an exodus of other key Fairfax editorial personnel to The Bulletin in the wake of Max Walshs departure to become editor-in-chief. The major shareholder, Brierley Investments Ltd, sold its 24.4 percent stake in Fairfax, leaving the ownership of Fairfax almost as indistinct as the Herald and Weekly Times Ltd was before News Ltd took over the group. The Australian Broadcasting Authority found that the interests held by Brian Powers (chairman) and Kerry Packer did not breach cross-media ownership rules. It could be loosely said that during the year Rupert Murdoch buried his first wife, divorced his second and married his third. This raised complicated questions of dynastic succession that had previously seemed to be fairly straightforward. Lachlan Murdoch also married.

Murdoch, a third-generation member of the Murdoch media dy- nasty, was 26 when he replaced the 62-year-old Ken Cowley as News Corp’s Australian chief executive. Lachlan is shaping up as the successor to his father, Rupert Murdoch, in running the group’s global news and entertainment empire.
