  • Intention and Diverging Interpretings of Implicature in the ''Uncovered Meat'
    Intention and diverging interpretings of implicature in the ‘‘uncovered meat’’ sermon MICHAEL HAUGH Abstract The standard model of communication in linguistic pragmatics is founded on the assumption that ‘‘successful’’ communication involves the addressee making inferences about the intentions of the speaker. Miscommunication of implicatures thus presumably arises when the addressee does not cor- rectly infer the speaker’s intention. In this paper, however, it is argued that this view of the (mis)communication of implicatures does not adequately account for the manner in which intentions may become the subject of dis- cursive dispute in interaction thereby giving rise to diverging interpretings of implicatures. Drawing from an analysis of the ‘‘uncovered meat’’ com- ments made by Sheik Taj Din al-Hilali and the ensuing controversy over what was implied by them, it is argued that to label such an incident as sim- ply a misunderstanding of the speaker’s intentions is misleading. Instead, it is suggested that the way in which Hilali’s comments were shifted from a specific audience in the Muslim community to wider Australian society by the media engendered discursive dispute over Hilali’s intentions, and thus gave rise to the co-constitution of diverging interpretings of what was im- plied by Hilali. Building a model of the communication of implicatures must therefore move beyond the received view that it involves ‘‘correctly’’ inferring the intentions of speakers to encompass a broader view where both converging and diverging interpretings of implicatures emerge through their conjoint co-constitution in interaction. 1. Introduction One of the key assumptions underlying the field of pragmatics is that what is communicated, in particular, meaning beyond what is said, cru- cially involves the intentions of speakers.

  • Australian Feminist Approaches to Mass Awareness Campaigns: Celanthropy, Celebrity Feminism and Online Activism
    Australian Feminist Approaches to Mass Awareness Campaigns: Celanthropy, Celebrity Feminism and Online Activism Author Casey, Sarah Jane Published 2015 Thesis Type Thesis (PhD Doctorate) School School of Humanities DOI https://doi.org/10.25904/1912/2528 Copyright Statement The author owns the copyright in this thesis, unless stated otherwise. Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/366513 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au Australian Feminist Approaches to Mass Awareness Campaigns: Celanthropy, Celebrity Feminism and Online Activism Sarah Jane Casey B.A. B.A. (Hons 1) School of Humanities Arts, Education and Law Group Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2014 1 ii Abstract This research asks which methods can successfully promote mainstream recognition for an issue, and if the success of such methods translates to a stronger feminist movement in Australia in the twenty-first century Western zeitgeist. These questions are important because broader-scale feminist consciousness-raising is critical at a time when the dominant discourses of neoliberalism and postfeminism often mean a reduced focus on collective campaigning for issues such as the awareness of gender-based violence, and there has arguably been an evacuation of substantive feminist politics in some areas. My original contribution lies in the testing and analysis of campaign methods and pathways for the information of Australian feminists who want to take women’s rights issues to more central mainstream spaces in feminist mass awareness campaigning. This research explores the deployment of what I call the twenty-first century’s ‘Tools of the Zeitgeist’.

  • Handsome, Intelligent and Very, Very Cheeky, the Today Show's Karl
    SAMPLESSTRAIGHT MATE Current Affairs Cowboy Handsome, intelligent and very, very cheeky, The Today Show’s Karl Stefanovic gets Freudian and frisky with Matthew Myers about “long and stabby” things. DNA: Congratulations on 30 years of The Today Show. Has there been a standout story or moment for you? Karl Stefanovic: Looking back on 30 years, it’s pretty hard to zero in on one because there have been very big news events over that time, on top of the entertainment side of what we do. For me personally it would be covering the Brisbane floods. It was a significant story and so personal for me because I come from Brisbane. With the threat and pressure that the people there were under, it was important to me to do as well as I possibly could up there. I’d have to say that was the moment that I’ve relished the most. You also interviewed Bill Clinton on, of all days, 11 September 2001. To be honest with you, it was bizarre more than anything. My grandmother got me up to answer a call and I literally had the phone to my ear when I watched the second plane fly into the building. Then I was told that Bill Clinton was in Port Douglas and to try and interview him. But then the whole of Cairns went into lockdown and there were planes going everywhere and they flew the Hercules in from the States to pick up Clinton and his entourage. The interview was very short. It was such a bizarre day.

  • Annual Report to Shareholders
    ANNUAL REPORT 2018 CONTENTS CHAIRMAN'S ADDRESS 2 DIRECTORS’ REPORT 24 CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S ADDRESS 4 REMUNERATION REPORT 30 OPERATIONAL REVIEW 6 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW 49 GOVERNANCE 18 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 53 NINE CARES 20 SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION 113 BOARD OF DIRECTORS 22 CORPORATE DIRECTORY 115 YEAR IN BRIEF During FY18, the strong operating performance of traditional linear television has enabled Nine to step up the focus on, and commitment to, the long-term growth of the overall business. Positive ratings momentum combined with Nine’s focus on the 25-54 demographic is translating to improved revenue share in Free To Air (FTA) television. In Digital, 9Now is experiencing strong revenue and profit growth as the business continues to mature and the Digital Publishing business has reported accelerating growth in revenues and EBITDA, driven by video- led content and based around the key verticals of News, Sport, Entertainment and Lifestyle. Stan has passed through the milestone of 1 million subscribers and remains focussed on building a long term competitive and profitable SVOD business. During the year, Nine has challenged the paradigm – trialling new content, investing in new distribution platforms and creating new ways to engage with its audiences and advertisers. The progress has been tangible. RESULT IN BRIEF In FY18, NEC reported Group EBITDA of $257 million, up 25% on FY17, driven by a 6% increase in Group revenues. Nine increased its share of a Free To Air market which returned to growth over the year, underpinning the result. Importantly for the future of the business, Nine’s FTA growth was augmented by strong growth in 9Now and Digital Publishing.
