    Stephen Harrington Thesis

    PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE BEYOND JOURNALISM: INFOTAINMENT, SATIRE AND AUSTRALIAN TELEVISION STEPHEN HARRINGTON BCI(Media&Comm), BCI(Hons)(MediaSt) Submitted April, 2009 For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology, Australia 1 2 STATEMENT OF ORIGINAL AUTHORSHIP The work contained in this thesis has not been previously submitted to meet requirements for an award at this or any other higher education institution. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made. _____________________________________________ Stephen Matthew Harrington Date: 3 4 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the changing relationships between television, politics, audiences and the public sphere. Premised on the notion that mediated politics is now understood “in new ways by new voices” (Jones, 2005: 4), and appropriating what McNair (2003) calls a “chaos theory” of journalism sociology, this thesis explores how two different contemporary Australian political television programs (Sunrise and The Chaser’s War on Everything) are viewed, understood, and used by audiences. In analysing these programs from textual, industry and audience perspectives, this thesis argues that journalism has been largely thought about in overly simplistic binary terms which have failed to reflect the reality of audiences’ news consumption patterns. The findings of this thesis suggest that both ‘soft’ infotainment (Sunrise) and ‘frivolous’ satire (The Chaser’s War on Everything) are used by audiences in intricate ways as sources of political information, and thus these TV programs (and those like them) should be seen as legitimate and valuable forms of public knowledge production.

In truth, this is a useful starting point for any discussion of diversity within a nation, and the way that nation manages its diversity, because it forces us to think about the concept of the nation itself, and the very essence of national identity. That essence begins with the treaties of Westphalia. It is no exaggeration to say that the doctrines on which the nation state is built were born in those treaties. So, too, the nation state’s attendant mythologies. And here we must admit that in spite of whatever politicians might want to say, the nation state is a mythologized fiction that we keep alive through the way that we talk about it.
  • Ministerial Advisers in the Australian System of Responsible Government∗

    Ministerial Advisers in the Australian System of Responsible Government∗

    Between Law and Convention: Yee-Fui Ng Ministerial Advisers in the Australian System of Responsible Government∗ It is hard to feel sorry for politicians. Yet it is undeniable that a modern day minister has many different responsibilities, including managing policy, the media and political issues. Ministers also have to mediate with and appease various stakeholders, including constituents and interest groups. Within the political structure they have to work cooperatively with their prime minister, members of parliament and their political party. It is impossible for one person to shoulder all these tasks single-handedly. Newly elected ministers are faced with a vast and bewildering bureaucracy inherited from the previous government. Although the public service is supposed to be impartial, ministers may not be willing to trust the bureaucracy when a few moments ago it was serving their opponents. Understandably, ministers have the desire to have partisan advisers whom they trust to advise them. This has led to the rise of the ministerial adviser. Ministerial advisers are personally appointed by ministers and work out of the ministers’ private offices. In the last 40 years, ministerial advisers have become an integral part of the political landscape. It all started with the informal ‘kitchen cabinets’, where a small group of the minister’s trusted friends and advisers gathered around the kitchen table to discuss political strategies. This has since become formalised and institutionalised into the role of the partisan ministerial adviser as distinct from the impartial public service. The number of Commonwealth ministerial staff increased from 155 in 1972 to 423 in 2015—an increase of 173 per cent.
  • Tanner Dumps on PM

    Tanner Dumps on PM

    The Sunday Telegraph April 24, 2011 12:00AM Tanner dumps on PM JULIA Gillard is fortunate the next election is two years away. Policy quicksand is dragging the Labor Government down in every direction: asylum seekers, carbon tax, the national broadband network, defence reform and preparations for a killer budget. Disastrous Labor polling shows voters think the Government gets everything wrong. Senior press-gallery commentators are virtually writing off Ms Gillard's chances. And now, a former member of inner-Cabinet's "gang of four", Lindsay Tanner, has pole-axed Ms Gillard. In his upcoming memoir, Mr Tanner, who quit in Ms Gillard's first Question Time as Prime Minister last year, writes: "Whether I like it or not, I have spent much of my adult life in an entertainment industry. "My craft as a politician was swamped by such values. Modern politics now resembles a Hollywood blockbuster: all special effects and no plot." He takes veiled digs at ex-colleagues, in the guise of a critique of "shallow" media coverage: Julia Gillard dyes her hair red, Queensland Premier Anna Bligh has Botox, Kevin Rudd once nibbled his own ear-wax, Mark Latham had "man-boobs". This is a damaging book from a man who makes no secret of his bitterness. Mr Tanner has been at odds with Ms Gillard since their student days. He has publicly expressed distaste for modern Labor since 2003, when Mr Latham became leader. When Mr Rudd was rolled, Mr Tanner retired, leaving the Greens to take his seat of Melbourne. Now, as Ms Gillard grapples with the unwieldy Green-independent balance of power, Mr Tanner throws bombs from the sideline.
