    Forget polling voters, just ask the punters - Opinion - smh.com.au http://www.smh.com.au/news/opinion/forget-polling-voters-just-ask-the... Home » Opinion » Article Forget polling voters, just ask the punters John Garnaut February 9, 2007 THIS week three years ago, David Cox, Labor's slightly dishevelled member for the Adelaide seat of Kingston, stopped to contemplate his fortune in the parliamentary corridor. His party had surged to a 6 percentage point lead in the opinion polls, after years of wretched irrelevance. Publicly, Labor had been talking with caution and humility; privately it was a different story. Cox, a hard-headed economist and strategist, allowed a schoolboy grin to spread across his usually deadpan face. "It's amaaaaazing," he said. That was February 2004. Nine months later, voters threw Cox out of his seat and gave his party another thrashing. Now, Labor is led by a cautious workhorse with none of Mark Latham's fissile characteristics. John Howard has aged three years; and with Iraq, climate change and perhaps interest rates, the times that famously suited him appear to have shifted. Labor's opinion poll lead is now 10 points, not six. Yet there is none of the premature celebration that marked Labor three years ago, and only a hint of the panic that rippled through the Coalition. Chastened by their Latham exuberance, press gallery reporters are falling over themselves to show sagacious restraint and predict a Howard comeback. The pundits now know better than to be swept around by opinion polls. As economists such as Justin Wolfers and Andrew Leigh have shown, polls can have almost zero predictive value so far out from an election.

  • AN Smith Lecture by Michael Gawenda
    A N Smith Lecture in Journalism The University of Melbourne __________________________________________________________________ Do newspapers have a future? And how long is that future? Michael Gawenda Thank you all for coming and thank you Vice Chancellor Glyn Davis for asking me to give this lecture. I am in the company of some very distinguished people who have given the A.N. Smith lecture in the past. I hope I can be somewhere near as interesting and provocative as some of them were. I want to start with a couple of quotes from dead old white men, a demographic I am bound, sooner or later, to join. That’s my future taken care of. I state the obvious of course, but do so because how journalists and editors like me regard the future of newspapers depends on how much of a future we ourselves have--in newspapers and in life. Most these quotes come from books and articles I have not read. They are quotes I have found by using the Google search engine. The Google search engine has now become a widespread research tool in journalism. The effects are not always benign. Still, I have, at times, succumbed to its seductiveness. In 1961, the American playwright Arthur Miller said: `A good newspaper, I suppose, is a nation talking to itself.’ I think that with a small edit, the sort a sub- editor of a certain type could easily perform, this Miller attempt at wisdom about newspapers could have said something that would be as true today as it would have been almost a half century ago : `A bad newspaper, I suppose, is a newspaper talking to itself’.

  • A Few Tips for Opinion Piece Writers Andrew Leigh
    A Few Tips for Opinion Piece Writers Andrew Leigh Updated February 2008 In Australia, opinion pieces are more important than they probably should be. Lacking broad-based expert-written policy magazines like the New Republic, Atlantic Monthly or Spectator, much of the discussion about ideas in Australia occurs on our opinion pages.1 And there isn’t much space for it. We have five broadsheets in Australia: the Sydney Morning Herald, Age, Australian, Canberra Times and the Australian Financial Review (the last a tabloid-sized broadsheet). Given that most have their own regular columnists, this means only about five to ten places for new voices each day. There are two implications of this. First, if you have something to say that’s of interest to a generalist audience, it’s worth trying to write an opinion piece and get it placed. While academic articles are important, most will only be read by a few thousand people. The same goes for online journals. By contrast, the Age and Sydney Morning Herald have a circulation of over 200,000. Second, there is a lot of competition for Australia’s limited opinion page territory, so you will need to be persistent, and may need to send it to more than one paper before it gets a run. What follows was originally written as the basis for a training session that I conducted in 2004 for OzProspect fellows, a talented bunch of young Aussies who are working to get their ideas into the public domain. A couple of people afterwards expressed interest in a document that aimed to demystify the opinion piece game.

  • Intracellular Lipid Droplet Accumulation Occurs Early Following Viral Infection and Is Required for an Efficient Interferon Response
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24632-5 OPEN Intracellular lipid droplet accumulation occurs early following viral infection and is required for an efficient interferon response E. A. Monson 1, K. M. Crosse1, M. Duan2, W. Chen 2,R.D.O’Shea 1, L. M. Wakim3, J. M. Carr 4, ✉ D. R. Whelan2 & K. J. Helbig 1 1234567890():,; Lipid droplets (LDs) are increasingly recognized as critical organelles in signalling events, transient protein sequestration and inter-organelle interactions. However, the role LDs play in antiviral innate immune pathways remains unknown. Here we demonstrate that induction of LDs occurs as early as 2 h post-viral infection, is transient and returns to basal levels by 72 h. This phenomenon occurs following viral infections, both in vitro and in vivo. Virally driven in vitro LD induction is type-I interferon (IFN) independent, and dependent on Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) engagement, offering an alternate mechanism of LD induction in comparison to our traditional understanding of their biogenesis. Additionally, LD induction corresponds with enhanced cellular type-I and -III IFN production in infected cells, with enhanced LD accumulation decreasing viral replication of both Herpes Simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and Zika virus (ZIKV). Here, we demonstrate, that LDs play vital roles in facilitating the magnitude of the early antiviral immune response specifically through the enhanced modulation of IFN following viral infection, and control of viral replication. By identifying LDs as a critical signalling organelle, this data represents a paradigm shift in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms which coordinate an effective antiviral response.

  • Sydney Is Singularly Fortunate in That, Unlike Other Australian Cities, Its Newspaper History Has Been Well Documented
    Two hundred years of Sydney newspapers: A SHORT HISTORY By Victor Isaacs and Rod Kirkpatrick 1 This booklet, Two Hundreds Years of Sydney Newspapers: A Short History, has been produced to mark the bicentenary of publication of the first Australian newspaper, the Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser, on 5 March 1803 and to provide a souvenir for those attending the Australian Newspaper Press Bicentenary Symposium at the State Library of New South Wales, Sydney, on 1 March 2003. The Australian Newspaper History Group convened the symposium and records it gratitude to the following sponsors: • John Fairfax Holdings Ltd, publisher of Australia’s oldest newspaper, the Sydney Morning Herald • Paper World Pty Ltd, of Melbourne, suppliers of original newspapers from the past • RMIT University’s School of Applied Communication, Melbourne • The Printing Industries Association of Australia • The Graphic Arts Merchants Association of Australia • Rural Press Ltd, the major publisher of regional newspapers throughout Australia • The State Library of New South Wales Printed in February 2003 by Rural Press Ltd, North Richmond, New South Wales, with the assistance of the Printing Industries Association of Australia. 2 Introduction Sydney is singularly fortunate in that, unlike other Australian cities, its newspaper history has been well documented. Hence, most of this short history of Sydney’s newspapers is derived from secondary sources, not from original research. Through the comprehensive listing of relevant books at the end of this booklet, grateful acknowledgement is made to the writers, and especially to Robin Walker, Gavin Souter and Bridget Griffen-Foley whose work has been used extensively.

  • 65 Watching Television in Australia: a Story of Innocence and Experience
    Watching Television in Australia: A Story of Innocence and Experience Susan Bye School of Communication, Arts and Critical Enquiry La Trobe University Abstract The excitement and naiveté of early viewers have become central to narratives of the Australian viewing past. These stories are of simpler times when the pleasure of watching television was unmediated by modern self-consciousness and cynicism. This popular way of ‘remembering’ television seems both natural and inevitable, but its role as a discursive strategy is highlighted by the alacrity with which TV columnists sought to bestow a sense of experience on fledgling Sydney viewers. In this paper, I focus on the way that the regular TV column worked to stitch readers into the daily business of television. Moreover, from the beginning of regular broadcasting, TV columnists challenged the idea that watching television was an identity- subsuming process and invited their readers to assume an active connection with television and its culture. Keywords: Audiences, Australian Television, Everyday Life, TV Columns Introduction The construction of television viewing history as progressive or developmental is not peculiar to the Australian context but, in the Australian situation, the popular association of early television with the fifties has allowed it and its audience to be collapsed into the ‘fifties story’. Imagined simultaneously as a time of innocence and a period of narrow-mindedness, the dominant narrative of Australia in the fifties involves a perception of a simple and insular people readily committing to family life in the suburbs (White 1983). This monochromatic understanding of suburban life in fifties Australia has effortlessly intersected with a similarly tidy conception of the relationship of early TV viewers to the new technology of television.

    Article No. 7595 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Thursday, 24 May 2018 It’s official: Most Australians now visit news or newspaper websites SMH is top for men and news.com.au for women. Daily Mail & Buzzfeed top news websites for Gen Z. Nearly 15.7 million Australians aged 14+ now access news or newspaper websites in an average four weeks according to the latest Roy Morgan research – that’s almost 78%. E News is an essential part of the vast majority of Australians’ media menu. When used in conjunction with Roy Morgan’s Single Source wide and deep selection of consumption, behavioural and attitudinal information, the news websites visitation data can be applied to inform both broad and niche communication strategies. Australia’s most popular news website is news.com.au which is visited by nearly 5.9 million Australians in an average four week period, ahead of the Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) on 5.3 million visitors and ABC News website on just over 5 million visitors. Analysing these results on a gender basis shows marginally more women visit news websites in an average four weeks (7.9 million) than men (7.8 million). And the top two news websites are reversed in order with the top news website for women being news.com.au and top for men is SMH. Australia’s Top 20 News websites – visitation in an average four weeks over 12 months to March 2018 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEAS Source: Roy Morgan Single Source: April 2017 – March 2018, n = 50,014 Australians aged 14+.

  • Submission by the Media Entertainment and Arts
    SUBMISSION BY THE MEDIA ENTERTAINMENT AND ARTS ALLIANCE TO THE PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION REVIEW OF BROADCASTING LEGISLATION JUNE 1999 MEAA SUBMISSION TO PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION INQUIRY INTO BROADCASTING 2 The Alliance welcomes the opportunity to participate in the Productivity Commission’s Inquiry into Australia’s broadcasting services. Established in 1992 following the amalgamation of the Australian Journalists Association, Actors Equity and the Australian Theatrical and Amusement Employees Association, the Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance is the industrial and professional organisation representing the people who work in Australia’s media and entertainment industries. Our membership includes journalists, artists, photographers, performers, film and television technicians. This submission focuses on the Broadcasting Services Act’s cross media and foreign ownership rules, Australian content regulation and the role of public broadcasters. We refer the Commission to the Alliance’s most recent detailed submissions on these areas and will provide copies on request 1. CROSS MEDIA RULES In 1997, the Federal Government abandoned its plan to amend the Broadcasting Services Act’s cross media ownership rules in the face of widespread community opposition. In an open letter to Prime Minister John Howard, published in ‘The Australian’ on May 5 1997, former Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser was joined by over 100 prominent Australians from across the community in declaring that, ‘we share a common belief that Australia’s media will serve this country best by being as diverse and independent as possible. Whatever difficulties these rules [the cross rules] present, they have worked as a minimum guarantee of diversity in Australia.’ Communications Minister Alston was unable to persuade his parliamentary colleagues of the need for reform.
