Established on October 24, 1980, it is the responsibility of SBS's television division and is available nationally. In 2018, SBS's share of the audience was 7.9%. History Origins SBS began test broadcasts in April 1979 as SBS Ethnic Television when it showed various foreign language programs on ABV-2 Melbourne and ABN-2 Sydney on Sunday mornings.

Bruce Gyngell, who introduced television to Australia back in 1956, was tasked with introducing the first batch of programs on the new station. The first program shown was a documentary about multiculturalism entitled Who are we? which was organized, produced and directed by renowned Australian journalist Peter Luck. When the show starts during the night, the opening ad will be as follows with Fanfare for the common man Aaron Copeland playing in the background: Welcome to Channel 0/28 multicultural television, Sydney and Melbourne.

In June, SBS expanded to Brisbane, Adelaide, Newcastle, Wollongong and the Gold Coast. On January 5, 1986, SBS stopped broadcasting at VHF0. Although many Australians at the time did not have a UHF antenna, the license The VHF was already for a year at this stage, and not all antennas worked well with the low-frequency channel 0 either. After that, on 16 March 1986, SBS began broadcasting in Perth, Mount Gambier, Loxton-Renmark, Port Pirie, Broken Hill, Toowoomba, Townsville, Bendigo, Ballarat, Traralgon and Hobart.

ADVERTISEMENT By Bill Collins, University of Newcastle + COMMENT 1 New South Wales is the only major state in Australia that does not have energy security. Its reliance on Victorian and Queensland gas, paired with the vital role gas plays in its homes and industries, have put it in a precarious position. To put it bluntly, the state is heading for a major energy crisis in the next three or four years, and that will severely affect its future living standards and economic growth. The recently released independent report on coal seam gas (CSG) – written by NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer, Professor Mary O’Kane – recommends the government commit to a strong regulatory and monitoring system within the CSG industry, and highlights the need for world-class engineering practice. Though the report recommends this commitment and champions further research on environmental impacts, we need to move quickly.

RVN‐2 refers to the broadcast license call sign of the station, “2” being the channel number of the frequency. However, RVN‐2 was also the name and reference attributed to the station and the channel for many decades amongst viewers, and up to today, those who experienced RVN‐2 sometimes still refer to the channel as that. RVN‐2 was more than just a television service. Its identity on air and its Kooringal Studio facility became local institutions equivalent to that of a landmark. The station was a major local industry, at one time employing 150 local people in various roles from production to technical to clerical, as well as providing an introduction and training ground for young television employees.

  • 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.

  • The Voice of China: Interactive Television and Participatory Audiences in Mainland China
    The Voice of China: Interactive Television and Participatory Audiences in Mainland China Xin Yao Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies March 2017 ©This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived there from, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Abstract In 2012, the most popular reality TV show in China was The Voice of China (TVoC). It is an adaptation of The Voice of Holland, the format of which has been traded to many countries. Unlike its international versions, audiences cannot vote in TVoC due to government regulations. This research focuses on audience engagement with TVoC (2012), in light of this crucial difference. To investigate how audiences engage and make meanings with the show, this thesis is the first study approaches audience engagement in China by examining the tensions between government media policies, industry strategies and audience reception. Building on existing literature on media convergence and participatory culture in the West, this thesis argues that Internet technologies alongside social media enable and stimulate individual critical thinking and creativities which resist structural constraints such as censorship and commercialisation. Although direct online political participation is censored in China, audiences express and negotiate power as ways to construct political values. These online engagements bring new perspectives to understand participatory culture and ‘empowerment’ of audiences. Using political economy frameworks, this thesis highlights the power of government media policies in shaping TV industry and media content.

  • Item 9.2 Secretary General's Report
    Item 9.2 Secretary General’s Report By Tom Dielen - 20 July 2017 Dear World Archery President, Executive Board Members, Secretary General, Congress delegates and friends in Archery, World Archery has had a very successful period since the Copenhagen Congress. We have, again, done our best to enhance the impact of our Sport in the Archery and Olympic/Paralympic Family. We continue to be a federation that is often used as an example of how things should be done but we need to keep ourselves challenged and be ready to change. We were very proud to welcome Mr Thomas BACH, IOC President at two of our events since the last Congress. No other sports has had so many visits since his election in 2013. The IOC President has mentioned at several public interviews: “Change or be changed” This is very important and although we have been frontrunners in many areas, other federations have done a lot of catching up or copied us. We have to continue to innovate in many areas. We have focused on increasing the strategic planning of our member associations, working on good governance at all levels, assisting our members in adopting a national coaching programs, improving our media presence especially in social media and TV and the finalisation of our World Archery Excellence Centre To begin with, I want to list the key events since the last Congress. The idea of this list is not to be complete as this would be impossible and we have already listed most in the 2015 and 2016 annual reports.
