  • Mobile Is Theme for AUT University Jeanz Conference JTO Raises
    Mobile is theme for AUT University Jeanz conference The Journalism Education Association of New Zealand annual conference will be held at AUT University, November 28-29, 2013. Conference theme: The Mobile Age or #journalism that won’t sit still. The ongoing disruption of ‘traditional’ journalism practice by digital technologies is encapsulated nowhere more succinctly than in the touch-screen mobile device still quaintly called a ‘telephone’. Growth in mobile consumption is strong as both consumers and journalists adjust to an age where no one needs to sit down for the news. Meanwhile, within the increasingly wireless network, participatory media continue to blur the lines around journalism. How should journalism educators respond? Presenters are invited to submit abstracts for either papers addressing the conference theme or non- themed papers by August 31, 2013. Papers requiring blind peer review must be with conference convenors by September 30, 2013. For all inquiries, please contact Greg Treadwell (gregory.treadwell@ aut.ac.nz) or Dr Allison Oosterman ([email protected]). Call for papers (PDF) Conference registration form: Word document or PDF Photo: The opening of AUT’s Sir Paul Reeves Building in March (Daniel Drageset/Pacific Media Centre) JTO raises concerns over media standards regulators The JTO has prepared a report analysing the Law Commission’s proposed reform of news media standards bodies. The JTO’s report identified three areas of concern: First, potential for rule cross-infection; ie tight restrictions that exist on some news media may be applied to all media. For instance, the BSA’s complex and rigid rules on privacy and children’s interests could be applied to other media.

  • Epochality, Temporality and Media-Communication Ownership in Aotearoa-New Zealand
    MEDIANZ VOL 17 NO 1 • 2017 https://DOI.org/10.11157/medianz-vol17iss1id179 - ARTICLE - Epochality, Temporality and Media-Communication Ownership in Aotearoa-New Zealand Wayne Hope Abstract Amidst academic policy debates over the proposed Fairfax-NZME and Sky-Vodafone mergers, the historical patterns of media-communication ownership received little mention. The purpose of this article is to explain, firstly, how the very possibility of such mergers eventuated and, secondly, why associated epochal reconfigurations in the political economy of New Zealand capitalism eluded public depiction. Initially I examine the repercussions which arose from: the restructuring of Radio New Zealand and Television New Zealand into State-Owned Enterprises (1987); the arrival of TV3 (1989); the formation of pay-subscription Sky Television (1990); and the abolition of all legal restrictions on foreign media ownership (1991). Together these events signalled the hollowing out of New Zealand’s media-communication system and the unfolding ownership patterns of conglomeration, transnationalisation and financialisation. Behind this critical narrative, I explore how the simultaneous restructuring of the national political economy, mediated public life and the vocabulary of economics obfuscated the epochal shift that was taking place. An ongoing lack of public awareness about this shift has debilitated normatively-grounded critiques of the contemporary media landscape and the ownership patterns which came to prevail. Prologue: From National to Transnational Media Ownership in Epochal Context In simple terms, an epoch is an identifiable period of history marked by special events. Natural-scientific conceptions of evolutionary epochal change can be distinguished from the idea that epochs are brought into historical being by manifestations of collective self- consciousness.

ADVERTISING AND THE MARKET ORIENTATION OF POLITICAL PARTIES CONTESTING THE 1999 AND 2002 NEW ZEALAND GENERAL ELECTION CAMPAIGNS A THESIS PRESENTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN POLITICS AT MASSEY UNIVERSITY, PALMERSTON NORTH, NEW ZEALAND. CLAIRE ELIZABETH ROBINSON 2006 i ABSTRACT This thesis proposes an alternative way of establishing a link between market orientation and electoral success, by focusing on market orientation as a message instead of as a management function. Using interpretive textual analysis the thesis examines the advertising messages of the highest polling political parties for evidence of voter orientation and competitor orientation in the 1999 and 2002 New Zealand general election campaigns. Relating manifest market orientation to a number of statistical indicators of electoral success the thesis looks for plausible associations between the visual manifestation of market orientation in political advertisements and parties’ achievement of their party vote goals in the 1999 and 2002 elections. It offers party-focused explanations for electoral outcomes to complement existing voter-centric explanations, and adds another level of scholarly understanding of recent electoral outcomes in New Zealand. While the thesis finds little association between demonstration ofcompetitor orientation in political advertisements and electoral success, it finds a plausible relationship between parties that demonstrated a voter orientation in their political advertisements and goal achievement.

  • Miriama Kamo
    Miriama Kamo Twitter Award winning journalist Miriama Kamo grew up in South Brighton, Christchurch. Of Ngai Tahu and Ngati Mutunga descent (from her father) and Scottish/Irish (from her mother) - she grew up with a love of story-telling which steered her towards journalism. This saw her enroll in a three-year journalism course at the NZ Broadcasting School in Christchurch. Shortly after graduating, she promptly landed her first job in television as a reporter and presenter on Get Real - a science and discovery show for children. A year later she moved to Wellington, and began work as a reporter on TV3's Sunday with Mike Hosking (later to become Backch@t with Bill Ralston). Miriama stayed on with Backch@t for almost three years. Australia's sunny shores called to Miri, who then moved to Sydney - taking a short break from television. After disastrous experiences working as a receptionist at an advertising agency, a trainee typesetter and a waitress - she returned home, accepting a presenter role on TVNZ's Sunday. During her three year stint, she won the prestigious Best Current Affairs Reporter gong at the Qantas Media Awards in 2005. Miriama then spent an impressive six years manning the hull of TVNZ's popular current affairs show 20/20, before eventually returning to TVNZ’s Sunday as a correspondent and anchor. She has also presented for current affairs programme Marae and lifestyle show Kiwi Living. As an MC Miriama’s natural warmth, professionalism and poise shines through allowing guests and organisers to relax and enjoy any event. She's bubbly and engaging, with an infectious and ready smile.

  • 1 NZBS Celebrates 20Th Birthday in Style New Maori Media Course At
    NZBS celebrates 20th birthday in style Congratulations to colleagues at the New Zealand Broadcasting School at CPIT, who celebrated the School's 20th anniversary with a conference and gala dinner in late March. The event coincided with NZBS's largest graduation ceremony: 52 former students received their Bachelor of Broadcasting Communications degree in person, with 25 others in absentia. The photo shows the graduands, along with journalism tutor Yvonne Densem (2nd from right), preparing to march to Christchurch Town Hall. The conference, 'Back to the future', heard an address from Broadcasting Minister Steve Maharey, with responses from Ian Fraser, CEO of TVNZ, and Brent Impey, CEO of CanWest NZ. 'Getting Ahead - Looking Ahead' was a panel discussion where former students spoke of their experiences at the school and the realities of the industry. Another debate asked, 'Has news gone too far towards infotainment, celebrities and trivia?'. This featured Bill Ralston (TVNZ), Joe Atkinson (Auckland University), Mark Jennings (3News) and Judy McGregor (Human Rights Commission). It led to a heated discussion about the role of the BSA and, inevitably, Corngate. (YD, AL) New Maori Media course at WITT The WITT School of Journalism in New Plymouth has employed former Hawera Star editor Bonita Bigham to lead a new course in Applied Maori Media aimed at people wanting to work in both Maori and mainstream media. Bonita, who is Nga Ruahine of South Taranaki, is a graduate of the WITT course (1999) who worked for the Bay News and Bay of Plenty Times before taking over the Hawera Star. Her new course will start in July and lead graduates into a new study pathway at WITT.

  • 3. the Pervasive Power of Man-Made News
    CONTEMPORARY GENDER ISSUES 3. The pervasive power of man-made news ABSTRACT Since the first woman was appointed as editor of a major newspaper in New Zealand in the mid 1980s, what has been the progress of women to top editorships? And what is the status of women at governance, manage- ment and staff journalist levels? These questions examine gender equality issues and are important given the power and ubiquity of the news media in modern society. The article analyses participation of women in the news media against the so-called ‘feminisation’ of pre-entry journalism train- ing. The findings show that little progress has been made at editorship level, while there is more progress for senior women just below editorship level. Further, there is a difference in the status of women in governance of public service versus privately-owned broadcasting. The article is criti- cal of the data available to monitor participation by gender and ethnicity in New Zealand journalism over time. Strategies to help break down the pervasive power of ‘man-made news’ are proposed. These include female shareholder activism at the governance level of media companies, and a greater commitment by the New Zealand Journalism Training Organisa- tion to regular monitoring of women’s newsroom participation. Without it the status of women in New Zealand journalism remains invisible. JUDY McGREGOR Equal Employment Opportunities Commissioner, NZ Introduction N THE mid 1980s I became the first female to edit a major newspaper in Australasia, the big-selling tabloid Sunday News in New Zealand. The Inewspaper was then owned by Independent Newspapers Ltd, a company with a sizeable News Ltd shareholding.

The Commercial Imperative in Broadcasting News: TVNZ from 1985 to 1990 A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD in Human Resource Management at Massey University Margaret Ann Comrie 1996 i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like first to thank my supervisors. Associate Professor Frank Sligo set me on the path and encouraged me throughout, and Associate Professor Ruth Butterworth's wide knowledge of the field and fresh perspective were extremely valuable. I am grateful to Professor Philip Dewe, who spent hours helping with the data analysis. Thanks too to Professor Judy McGregor for her support, especially with decisions on the structure of the report and in giving me the final push to finish. Colleagues throughout the Department of Human Resource Management provided a listening ear and helpful suggestions. Lunchtime sessions with Marianne Tremaine, in particular, helped me keep the study in perspective. Christine Smith's assistance with layout of text and tables is especially appreciated. Alan Cocker, at Auckland University, shared his knowledge and resources. Also I wish to acknowledge those who talked about their experiences at BCNZ and TVNZ, not all of whom could be named in the report. They gave their time generously, and for some the interview meant coming to terms with painful memories. I owe a special debt to Arne Evans for insights into the processes of television, for proofreading, and for his constant support.
