MANswers Thursdays at 10pm – PART OF MEGA THURSDAYS CONTINUING AUSTRALIAN TV PREMIERE EPISODES How long can man survive on beer? Who has the biggest boobs in the world?

Tosh.0 Thursdays at 9pm – PART OF MEGA THURSDAYS CONTINUING AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE EPISODES TOSH.0 features the razor sharp humour and biting commentary from comedian Daniel Tosh and delves into all aspects of the Internet from the absolutely absurd to the incredibly ingenious in this weekly, topical series. In addition, the series features viral clips of the week and original videos created by and starring well-known actors and comedians. Each episode features the segment "Web Redemptions" which gives subjects of infamous viral videos - Afro Ninja and Miss Teen South Carolina a second chance to redeem them from the embarrassment with which they've become synonymous. The unusual mind of Daniel Tosh has earned him the admiration of his peers by winning over audiences with his unique brand of stand-up comedy that has made him one of the most requested headliners in the country. His casual style and sharp material are greatly appreciated by his audiences, young and old. Named one of Variety's 10 Comics to Watch in 2005, Tosh has performed on The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late, Late Show with Craig Kilborn, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Last Call with Carson Daly, VH1's Best Week Ever and MTV's Punk'd. On the film front, Tosh was featured in Mike Myers' 2008 release, The Love Guru. The Chaser’s War on Everything – Series 2 Thursdays at 8.30pm – PART OF MEGA THURSDAYS CONTINUING SUBSCRIPTION TV PREMIERE EPISODES As hilarious as it is controversial, and a runaway Australian TV success story, THE CHASER’S WAR ON EVERYTHING is little short of a phenomenon. The Chaser was founded in 1999 as a fortnightly satirical newspaper produced out of a spare bedroom by initial editors Charles Firth, Craig Reucassel, Julian Morrow, Dominic Knight, who were later joined by the far more talented Andrew Hansen, Chas Licciardello and Chris Taylor. Since those humble beginnings, the Chaser team has lost its humility and has produced Classic comedy in all media, including print, online, radio & television. Filmed in front of a studio audience, the Logie Award-winning team of both CNNNN and The Chaser Decides, do what they do best - confront and lampoon key players from the world of politics, business, religion, media and culture. These signature Chaser ambushes form the core of this "satirical anti-variety show’ - alongside news-of-the-week analysis, comedy sketches, their uniquely irreverent field experiments and often controversial stunts for which the team is well known. In 2007, the team infiltrated the APEC conference in Sydney, which made headlines around the world. George W. Bush 2 waged a war on terror, but only The Chaser has had the vision and courage to wage a WAR ON EVERYTHING! In Series 2 The Chaser team continue their war by going all the way testing out beds in a shopping centre and uncovering the secrets of The Secret. Mr 10 Questions disturbs Sophia Loren, the Citizens’ Infringement Officer issues tickets for bad haircuts, the guys find out exactly where you can take a tank, and the Surprise Spruiker turns up at Channel Nine for an Eddie McGuire clearance. Sons Of Tucson Saturdays at 7.30pm – PART OF SITCOMBO SATURDAY CONTINUING AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE EPISODES SONS OF TUCSON is a family comedy about three brothers who hire a charming, wayward schemer to stand in as their father when their real one goes to prison. But what begins as a business relationship evolves into something more complex and compelling: this is a family like no other. Starring Tyler Labine (Reaper, Boston Common) as Ron Snuffkin, the schemer hired by the boys, with a script filled with snappy dialogue and a tight ensemble cast of young actors making up the abandoned Gunderson family, it’s no wonder that SONS OF TUCSON comes from the team of executive producers (and MALCOLM actor “Reece”, Justin Berfield) of the runaway hit series MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE. SONS OF TUCSON is part of the biggest and best sitcom showcase on Australian television - SITCOMBO - which expands to weekends with a whole new line-up in SITCOMBO Saturday! Starting at 6.30pm with EVERYBODY HATES CHRIS based on comedian Chris Rock’s formative years, and followed at 7pm by the ever-popular comedy MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE.

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

  • 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.

  • Julian Morrow
    Julian Morrow Co-founder of The Chaser; Entertaining MC and speaker Julian Morrow is a comedian and television producer and is best known for being a member of the satirical team The Chaser. Julian has made a career of public nuisance in various forms, co-founding satirical media empire The Chaser and joke company Giant Dwarf, as well as making TV shows including The Election Chaser, CNNNN, The Chaser’s War on Everything, The Hamster Wheel and The Checkout. His work has been nominated, unsuccessfully, for many awards, and prosecuted successfully in many courts. More about Julian Morrow: In recent years, he was taken to claiming credit for the work of others as Executive Producer of Lawrence Leung’s series Choose Your Own Adventure and Unbelievable, Eliza and Hannah Reilly’s Growing Up Gracefully and Sarah Scheller & Alison Bell’s The Letdown (which on the 2018 AACTA Award for Best TV Comedy). In 2012 and 2013 he lowered standards at ABC Radio National as host of Friday Drive, a program which led to huge career opportunities for its Monday-Thursday host, Waleed Aly. In 2015, Julian founded Giant Dwarf theatre at 199 Cleveland Street Redfern, a venue which has been described as “absolutely hilarious” by his accountant. Over the years, Julian has interviewed countless people whose cache he tries to cash in on in his CV including Edward Snowden, Christopher Hitchens, Sting, Nobel Peace Prize winner Leymah Gbowee, Marc Newsome and the curator of TED Chris Anderson. Due to the unavailability of several respected media commentators, in 2009 Julian was invited to give the Andrew Olle Media Lecture, an honour he later demeaned by creating The Annual Inaugural Chaser Lecture.
