  • Campaign Monitoring Process 1. Dispatch Creative Audio to Networks
    Campaign Monitoring Process 1. Dispatch Creative Audio to Networks: All material for monitoring must be dispatched to networks via AudioNET for Key Number identification in the AirCheck system. Dispatch can be processed by the creative agency, media agency or the client themselves. (Charges apply) 2. Export Campaign from SMD. AudioNET currently relies on a .csv file from SMD to match campaign bookings with airplay. 3. Email the SMD export, Material Instructions and the Media Plan to [email protected]. • Keep AudioNET updated with all changes to campaign bookings, including Upweight campaigns, dropped spots, key number changes, spot volume changes as they occur to avoid delays in receiving your reports. 4. Subscribe to reports: From the list of Reporting Options below, nominate reports required, weekly, monthly or at the end of campaign. Report packages can be decided on a client-by-client basis and altered at any time. All reports are available in PDF and/or excel format. 5. Auditing Process: Your designated account manager will audit your client’s activity weekly, a week in arrears. Standard weekly reports are emailed through on any day between Tuesday to Thursday as the auditors work through each of their client’s radio campaign activities. The time to complete an audit and provide files is variant, dependent on the size and complexity of the campaign. A prompt delivery of weekly reports is also dependent on the accuracy of the campaign booking information provided to us (SMD & Material Instructions), whilst we compare these with how each station has aired your booked campaign. When booking discrepancies do arise, our auditors then start the manual process of reconciling ‘where has the error occurred’.

There are many different ways to stay informed about bushfires and other emergencies: • CFS website: www.cfs.sa.gov.au • Bushfire Information Hotline: 1800 362 361 (TTY 133 677) • Facebook: countryfireservice and cfsupdates • Twitter: @cfsalerts and @cfstalk • RSS feeds • Email subscription service for CFS bushfire advice and warning messages • TV and radio emergency broadcast partners such as ABC Local Radio • CFS booklets, brochures and fact sheets • CFS community engagement programs • Friends, family and neighbours We recommend you keep a battery powered or wind-up radio ready in case the power fails during an emergency or your phone signal is lost. Sometimes your own senses provide the best warning. Stay alert to your surroundings during the Fire Danger Season. Where to hear warnings The CFS partners with a number of media outlets who broadcast vital warning information to communities during emergencies. People living in, or travelling through, bushfire risk areas during the Fire Danger Season need to stay aware of weather conditions and listen out for CFS warnings.

  • Aap Submission to the Senate Inquiry on Media Diversity
    AAP SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON MEDIA DIVERSITY AAP thanks the Senate for the opportunity to make a submission on the Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia. What is a newswire A newswire is essentially a wholesaler of fact-based news content (text, pictures and video). It reports on politics, business, courts, sport and other news and provides this to other media outlets such as newspapers, radio and TV news. Often the newswire provides the only reporting on a subject and hence its decisions as to what to report play a very important role in informing Australians about matters of public interest. It is essential democratic infrastructure. A newswire often partners with other global newswire agencies to bring international stories to a domestic audience and also to take domestic stories out to a global audience. Newswires provided by news agencies have traditionally served as the backbone of the news supply of their respective countries. Due to their business model they contribute strongly to the diversity of media. In general there is a price for a defined number of circulation – be it printed papers, recipients of TV or radio broadcasters or digital recipients. The bigger the circulation, the higher the price thus making the same newswire accessible for small media with less purchasing power as well as for large media conglomerates with strong financial resources.1 ​ This co-operative business model has been practically accepted world-wide since the founding of the Associated Press (AP) in the USA in the mid-19th century. Newswire agencies are “among the oldest ​ media institutions to survive the evolution of media production from the age of the telegraph to the age of 2 platform technologies”.

  • Australian Associated Press Submission to the Senate Inquiry on the Treasury Laws Amendment (News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code) Bill 2020
    AUSTRALIAN ASSOCIATED PRESS SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON THE TREASURY LAWS AMENDMENT (NEWS MEDIA AND DIGITAL PLATFORMS MANDATORY BARGAINING CODE) BILL 2020 Australian Associated Press (AAP) thanks the Senate for an opportunity to comment on the Treasury Laws Amendment (News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code) Bill 2020 (the Bill). ​ ​ The Treasurer has stated that “[t]he News Media and Digital Platforms Mandatory Bargaining Code is ​ ​ a world-leading initiative. It is designed to level the playing field and to ensure a sustainable and viable Australian media landscape. It's a key part of the government's strategy to ensure that the Australian economy is able to take full advantage of the benefits of digital technology, supported by appropriate regulation to protect key elements of Australian society. One such key element is a strong and sustainable Australian news media landscape.”1 ​ AAP supports the Bill in its current form as it assists ‘retail’ media, that is, news media who have a direct-to-consumer “News Source” (as defined in the Bill), at a time when the industry is in a state of deep and prolonged crisis. However whilst the Bill helps AAP’s retail media customers, it does not contemplate a critical pillar of competition and media diversity in the news media industry in Australia - namely wholesale providers of news. One of the most important wholesale suppliers of news content in nearly every country is the national newswire. In Australia, this independent wholesale newswire service is fulfilled by AAP, which has been covering the news continuously for over 85 years.

    BLACKWOOD CHURCH OF CHRIST BUSHFIRE PROTECTION POLICY BACKGROUND The Country Fire Service (CFS) has advised bushfire safety measures for the 2010/2011 summer season. The CFS website www.cfs.sa.gov.au contains detailed information about fire safety awareness, preparedness and actions. The Mount Lofty Ranges (including Blackwood and surrounding hills suburbs) are considered to be an area of SA of high risk due to the large number of people and high fuel load that exist here, and the fire danger season for this area is 1st December to 30th April. The CFS has developed a hierarchy of places that can offer relative safety from bushfire. They are broken down into three categories: o Safer Settlement – This is a place of first resort for people who have decided to leave their home early on a bad fire day. The Adelaide metropolitan area is nominated as a safer settlement with the closest suburbs to the Blackwood area being Clovelly Park, Edwardstown, Hawthorn, Marion, Mitchell Park and Sturt. There are no nominated safer settlements in the Blackwood hills area. o Bushfire Safer Precinct – This is also a place of first resort for people who have decided to leave their home early on a bad fire day. The Blackwood District Centre area has been nominated as a bushfire safer precinct – the area bounded by Waite Street, Gulfview Road, Station Avenue and Shepherds Hill Road, thus including the Blackwood Church of Christ property. It is defined as an area of relative safety as it is some distance from bushland. Other nearest areas are the suburbs of Clovelly Park, Edwardstown, Hawthorn, Marion, Mitchell Park and Sturt.
