Hart would later fly out to Paris to direct the ‘For Lovers’ video to accompany the single Pete was on the verge of releasing with Wolfman in the spring. Pete was still playing solo gigs, advertising them on his website a day or two before they took place. He’d already recorded ‘For Lovers’ and was desperate to record the B-side; it was a beautiful song and he was convinced it would be a hit. He’d also finished recording the debut Babyshambles single. But Pete and Carl still wanted to write together. They needed to collaborate and bond after the debacle of their trip to the Welsh valleys, and they had a second Libertines album to write. So they decided to head to Paris.

    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013

    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013 Published: November 28, 2013 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2013 published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD) outlines how the financialisation of New Zealand media intensified as News Limited pulled out of Sky TV, and as lenders took 100 percent control of MediaWorks. In 2013, controversy erupted when it was revealed that a journalist’s phone records had been handed to a ministerial inquiry without her consent. The move was condemned by over 300 journalists as the government’s invasion of privacy was seen as a threat to media freedom. The government also passed legislation giving extra surveillance powers to the Government Communication Security Bureau (GCSB). This represented an institutional threat to journalistic autonomy. The report also finds that the bloggers and blogosphere gained prominence and influence in relation to the commercially driven mainstream media. In October 2013, there were 280 ranked blogs in New Zealand, and the top political blogs recorded high visitor numbers. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media ownership Financial institutions take control of Sky TV and MediaWorks MediaWorks goes into receivership, keeps losing content rights Bauer media grows in influence, buys The Listener and other magazines Sky TV stirred, but not shaken by the Commerce Commission and new competitors Leading newspapers stall paywalls, local papers launch them APN and Fairfax newsrooms shrink, profit boosted by asset sales and job cuts This New Zealand Media Ownership Report is the third published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD).

    Be a Junkie. Be a Thief. but Must You Date Kate Moss?

    February 20, 2005 Be a Junkie. Be a Thief. But Must You Date Kate Moss? Yui Mok/European Pressphoto Agency Chaos before the storm: the singer and guitarist Pete Doherty performing with his band Babyshambles in London in January. By DOMINIC PATTEN VEN by the standards of the great rock-'n'-roll train wrecks, these have been rough times for Pete Doherty. Sure, the 25-year-old frontman of the band Babyshambles has had tremendous musical success. And sure, he has enjoyed the company - in parties and gossip columns - of the glamorous Kate Moss. But that was before he was arrested on Feb. 2 on charges of robbery and blackmail. After that he spent five very unglamorous days in the Pentonville Prison in London, suffering from a painful heroin withdrawal and wondering whether anyone could raise £150,000 (about $280,230) for his bail. No one could claim to be entirely surprised by his fall. After gaining some attention in his teens as a poet, Mr. Doherty formed the Libertines with Carl Barat. With their street-urchin image and dark thrashy tunes of urban squalor, the band was described as "Britpop meets Baudelaire," and the two songwriters were compared to Morrissey and Johnny Marr of the Smiths. Their first album, "Up the Bracket," debuted in the British Top 20 in late 2002, and soon went platinum. But in addition to his musical talent, Mr. Doherty demonstrated an effortless knack for getting himself in trouble. In June 2003 he entered the first of many stints in rehab, only to walk away days later.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by AUT Scholarly Commons Death of a Genre? 1 The Death of a Genre?: Television Current Affairs Programmes on New Zealand Public Television Sarah Baker School of Communication Studies, Auckland University of Technology Abstract “We need the angry buzz of current affairs programmes” (Professor Sylvia Harvey in Holland, 2006, p. iv) “In a public system, television producers acquire money to make programmes. In a commercial system they make programmes to acquire money” (Tracey, 1998, p.18). Television current affairs programmes have from their inception been a flagship genre in the schedules of public service broadcasters. As a television form they were to background, contextualise and examine in depth issues which may have appeared in the news. They clearly met the public broadcasters' brief to 'inform and educate' and contribute to the notional 'public sphere'. Over the past two decades policies of deregulation and the impact of new media technologies have arguably diminished the role of public broadcasting and profoundly affected the resources available for current or public affairs television with subsequent impacts on its forms and importance. This paper looks at the output of one public broadcaster, Television New Zealand (TVNZ), and examines its current affairs programming through this period of change Communications, Civics, Industry – ANZCA2007 Conference Proceedings Death of a Genre? 2 Introduction From their inception current affairs programmes have played an important part in the schedules of public broadcasters offering a platform for citizens to debate and assess issues of importance. They are part of the public sphere in which the audience is considered to be made up of thoughtful, participating citizens who use the media to help them learn about the world and debate their responses and reach informed decisions about what courses of action to adopt (Dahlgren & Sparks, 1991).

  • Babyshambles

    Babyshambles

    Babyshambles Incluso podríamos permitirnos el lujo de no hacer ninguna presentación porque de sobra son conocidos Pete Doherty y los suyos, Babyshambles. El nuevo rey de corazones de la prensa británica ha publicado recientemente su segundo álbum, \"Shotter\'s Nation\", trabajo en el que según su líder han dado en el clavo. Grabado en los estudios Olimpyc de Londres y producido por Stephen Street (Blur, The Smiths), las canciones muestran una amplitud que la banda siempre había insinuado pero nunca había plasmado en un disco. 12 temas en los que aparecen una amplia variedad de influencias, desde The Kinks al punk, pasando por Stone Roses, un toque de Soul 2 Soul, el indie de los 80, Madness, Blondie, la Tamla Motown o el brit pop. Destaca la última canción del disco, \"The lost art of murder\", interpretada en acústico y con la colaboración de Bert Jansch, una leyenda del folk británico y magnífico guitarrista, y donde Doherty se reafirma como uno de los grandes compositores y cantantes de los últimos 20 años. Los fans de Babyshambles ya pudieron catar un adelanto de lo que sería \"Shotter\'s Nation\" gracias a que en el 2006 la banda repartía gratis a través de Internet canciones en proceso de elaboración, algunas de las cuales, ya terminadas, están en el nuevo álbum. Pero Doherty lo tiene claro: \"No creo que las hayas oído nunca como suenan ahora\". Cada escucha de \"Shotter\'s Nation\" revela nuevas complejidades en los arreglos y hace olvidar las obsesiones de los medios de comunicación por el famoseo.
