  • Leila Mckinnon
    Leila McKinnon Television personality, MC & event host Leila McKinnon has reported for Network Nine’s A Current Affair and was co-host of the Today Show on Saturday and Sunday mornings. An accomplished journalist and presenter, she is intelligent and friendly – the perfect host for a corporate event or celebration. Leila McKinnon has interviewed a myriad of prominent figures in Australian and international life – from former Prime Minister Julia Gillard to former Wiggle Geoff Page and singing star Delta Goodrem to Tom Hanks, Beyonce and Pierce Brosnan. She famously scolded bad boy Cory Worthington on A Current Affair in an interview that went viral and became a YouTube sensation. Unafraid to tackle hardline issues, Leila McKinnon has extensively reported on topics that include increasing gang problems, drug issues, and the controversial Gordon Wood trial. As a foreign correspondent for the Nine Network, based in Los Angeles, she was the first journalist to track down and confront the notorious doctor Jayant Patel, who was later extradited to Australia to face charges of negligence due to deaths in a McKay hospital. She also reported extensively from Guantanamo Bay on the David Hicks affair. Leila McKinnon’s career in the media began with the completion of her journalism degree in Queensland and her first role on television in Rockhampton in 1993 with WIN television. She moved to Cairns to work with the WIN network in 1995. In early 1996 Leila moved to the Nine Network to report and present the weather for the newly created Nine Gold Coast News. She went on to report for A Current Affair and read the National Nine News with Karl Stefanovic in Brisbane before moving to Sydney in 2001 and returning to the news department.

  • News Media Chronicle, July 1995 to June 1996
    Australian Studies in Journalism 5: 1996: 265-311 265 News media chronicle, July 1995 to June 1996 Geoff Turner T 30 June, 1996, it appeared that the most significant me- dia event of the preceding 12 months was likely to be the Aelection on 2 March of a Liberal-National coalition fed - eral government, the first for 13 years. Coalition policy promised a review of cross-media and foreign-ownership rules for the me- dia, which most commentators expected would lead to a loosen- ing of these restrictions. The new Communications Minister, Richard Alston, promised an inquiry to report by the end of cal- endar 1996 and possibly headed by an “eminent citizen”. Coali- tion policy also promised to retain existing levels of funding for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, but this promise looked less likely to be kept. While most of the detail was un- likely to emerge before the August 20 Budget, it was already clear that the Australian news media would be significantly dif- ferent under the new government. In other significant develop- ments during the year the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance released its long-awaited draft new code of ethics; the coverage of a Tasmanian massacre in which 35 people were killed raised several important questions about journalistic prac- tice; Kerry Packer started devolving power to son James at Pub- lishing and Broadcasting Ltd; there was turmoil at the top at Fairfax, which had three chief executive officers within 12 months; the major pay TV operators, Foxtel and Optus Vision, started their services; Australian Information Media, a joint pay TV venture of the ABC, Fairfax and a United States company, collapsed ignominiously; and the sudden death of Andrew Olle 266 Australian Studies in Journalism stunned the journalistic community and brought extraordinary outpourings of public grief for the death of a journalist.

AGGREGATION AND REGIONAL TELEVISION A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY from UNIVERSITY OF WOLLONGONG by NERYL EAST, MA Graduate School of Journalism 1998 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Assistance and co-operation was received from many organisations and individuals in the preparation of this thesis. In particular, I would like to thank the management of WTN Television who allowed me access to their news library and various other company information. I would also like to acknowledge those who gave me formal interviews as part of my research. Their frank views on the subject added greatly to the store of information collected. My thanks also to the many staff currently working in television newsrooms around Australia who provided me with invaluable background information. I also wish to acknowledge my supervisor, Professor Clem Lloyd, who encouraged my research in a largely undocumented area. Finally I would like to thank my husband, Robert East, for sharing his vast television experience with me, contributing ideas and suggestions on my research, and supporting me throughout this lengthy process. 11 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the implementation into regional Australian television of the policy known as equalisation.
