  • Dear Ms Kleinig I Refer to Your Recent Phone Call to My Office And
    From: Gerard Henderson Sent: Tuesday, 14 May 2013 4:33 PM To: Xanthe Kleinig Cc: Mark Scott; Richard Finlayson; Michael Millett Subject: RE: query from Media Watch Dear Ms Kleinig I refer to your recent phone call to my office and subsequent email to me (dated 9 May 2013) advising that the ABC 1 Media Watch program “is interested in the declarations or otherwise of expert commentators from institutes and think tanks who contribute frequently to the public conversation, especially in the media”. I watched the Media Watch credits last night. I noted that Media Watch presenter Jonathan Holmes has three journalists/researchers and four librarians in addition to a production team of around ten (not including studio/camera/editing crew). In view of Media Watch’s substantial research staff, I am surprised that you do not seem to be aware of the aims and practices of The Sydney Institute. The Sydney Institute is not a think tank. Rather, it is a policy forum for debate and discussion. The Sydney Institute has no policies, does no lobbying and does not advocate causes. Speakers at the Institute, over the past six months, include Senator Christine Milne, Anthony Albanese, Tony Abbott, Senator Bob Carr and Senator George Brandis. As you should be aware, speakers address the Institute for about 30 minutes and engage in questions/discussion for a further 30 minutes. All talks delivered are published in full (subject to only stylistic editing and/or the rare elimination of defamatory material) in The Sydney Papers Online and downloaded on the Institute’s podcast.

  • The Sydney Morning Herald's Linton Besser and the Incomparable
    Exposed: Obeids' secret harbour deal Date May 19, 2012 Linton Besser, Kate McClymont The former ALP powerbroker Eddie Obeid hid his interests in a lucrative cafe strip. Moses Obeid. Photo: Kate Geraghty FORMER minister Eddie Obeid's family has controlled some of Circular Quay's most prominent publicly-owned properties by hiding its interests behind a front company. A Herald investigation has confirmed that Mr Obeid and his family secured the three prime cafes in 2003 and that for his last nine years in the upper house he failed to inform Parliament about his family's interest in these lucrative government leases. Quay Eatery, Wharf 5. Photo: Mick Tsikas For the first time, senior officials and former cabinet ministers Carl Scully and Eric Roozendaal have confirmed Mr Obeid's intervention in the lease negotiations for the quay properties, including seeking favourable conditions for the cafes, which the Herald can now reveal he then secretly acquired. Crucially, when the former NSW treasurer Michael Costa had charge of the waterfront, he put a stop to a public tender scheduled for 2005 that might have threatened the Obeids' control over two of the properties. Mr Obeid was the most powerful player inside the NSW Labor Party for the past two decades, and was described in 2009 by the deposed premier Nathan Rees as the party's puppet-master. Eddie Obeid. Photo: Jon Reid The Arc Cafe, Quay Eatery and Sorrentino, which are located in blue-ribbon positions on or next to the bustling ferry wharves at the quay, are all run by a $1 company called Circular Quay Restaurants Pty Ltd.

Gli Italiani nel New South Wales: scelte politiche a Griffith 1947-1984 Jim Hagan University of Wollongong La città di Griffith, nello Stato del New South Wales (Australia), si trova nel centro del Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area (MIA), distante circa 500 km da Sydney. Alla fine degli anni sessanta c’erano a Griffith più residenti nati in Italia, pro capite di popolazione, che in qualsiasi altro luogo dello Stato. Come si spiega questa concentrazione? E quali circostanze, riguardo al loro insediamento, hanno influenzato il loro adattamento al nuovo paese e le loro scelte politiche? La prassi con la quale fu stabilito il MIA può fornire, in parte, una possibile risposta a tale domanda. Dopo un lungo periodo di disastrosa siccità all’inizio del ventesimo secolo, il governo cominciò a mettere in atto un grande progetto di irrigazione e lottizzazione lungo il fiume Murrumbidgee, e nel 1913 i primi ‘blocks’ (appezzamenti) erano pronti.

The study is based on previous research focusing on three main areas of scholarship, drawn from a wider range of international theatres. These three bodies of work focus on: (1) factors affecting the selection, construction and presentation of international news; (2) how news editors and news directors function as gatekeepers of international news within newsrooms, and how they prioritise international news; and (3) whether cultural training occurs in Australian newsrooms, and if so, how it influences the gatekeeper’s news selection process, and through it, world news coverage in the Australian news media.
