Abstract This project explores the attitudes of universities and media organisations towards journalism curriculum renewal. In part, the project is inspired by an apparent schism that exists between some journalists and editors on the one hand, and journalism academics on the other regarding the role of journalism training and education, specifically, where it should most appropriately be taught – in-house, that is by the media organisation, within a university environment, or elsewhere.

  • Seven West Media Welcomes ACCC Approval of Sale of Pacific Magazines to Bauer Media
    Thursday, 26 March 2020 Seven West Media welcomes ACCC approval of sale of Pacific Magazines to Bauer Media Seven West Media (ASX: SWM) Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, James Warburton, today welcomed the decision by the ACCC to approve the sale of Pacific Magazines to Bauer Media.

  • ACCC Statement of Issues Regarding Sale of Pacific Magazines to Bauer Media
    Thursday, 19 December 2019 ACCC Statement of Issues regarding sale of Pacific Magazines to Bauer Media The ACCC has released a Statement of Issues today expressing concerns about some limited aspects of the proposed sale of Pacific Magazines to Bauer Media, specifically common ownership of New Idea and Woman's Day, and common ownership of That's Life and Take 5. Seven West Media (ASX: SWM) believes that the ACCC has taken an overly narrow view of the competitive dynamics and constraints at play for magazine publishers and has not properly taken into account the competitive constraints faced by magazine publishers from digital and social media platforms. James Warburton, SWM Managing Director and CEO, said: “Advertising spend on consumer magazines represents only 2% of total advertising spend in Australia, whereas internet advertising spend accounts for more than 46% of total advertising spend in Australia.1 “At a time when the ACCC itself is looking at the impact of digital platforms on traditional media businesses and in the face of proposed Government reforms to redress the imbalance between traditional media businesses and the dominant digital platforms, the concerns that have been expressed seem misplaced. “The transaction represents an opportunity to provide a stronger base for these titles to compete into the future against digital platforms.” SWM will continue to engage with the ACCC as its process continues.
