												Nine Response to Mr Anthony Klan
30 March 2021 Mr Nicholas Craft Standing Committee on Environment and Communications Department of the Senate PO Box 6100 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 Attention: Nicholas Craft By email: [email protected] Private & Confidential Dear Mr Craft Re: Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia We refer to your email dated 16 March 2021 which attached Anthony Klan’s submission on Media Diversity in Australia. Nine denies the allegations contained in Mr Klan’s submissions, and in particular, Nine vehemently denies any allegation that Nine receives payment in return for favourable coverage or conversely payment for protecting individuals or companies from damaging media coverage. Nine maintains strong editorial independence across all of its platforms. Nine’s news, whether it be delivered by television, radio, print or online, is subject to the following standards which require editorial independence, disclosure of commercial arrangements, impartiality and accuracy: - Commercial Television Industry Code of Practice; - Commercial Radio Code of Practice; and - Australian Press Council Standards of Practice When Nine acquired the Fairfax publications (The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, The Australian Financial Review, The Brisbane Times, WA Today), Nine agreed to commit to the Fairfax Media Charter of Editorial Independence at a Nine Board and Management level. This was confirmed in the materials publicly released by Fairfax as part of the scheme of arrangement under which Nine acquired Fairfax in 2018. There is no physical document which needs to be signed, to establish this commitment. This is something which I am instructed we have communicated to Mr Klan previously, and which he has failed to disclose in his submissions. -

												Ap2 Final 16.2.17
PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation. -

												Questions & Answers & Tweets
Questions & Answers & Tweets Jock Given & Natalia Radywyl Abstract This article reports on the integration of Twitter messages into the live television broadcast of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s (ABC) weekly public affairs discussion program, Q&A. The program first went to air in May 2008; Twitter integration began two years later. Twitter integration is an evolving example of ‘participation television’, but not one that involves the kind of remote- control/set-top-box interactivity that digital television promised. Q&A integrates broadcast and online content in a way the program makers thought would serve the animating purpose of the television program: to increase public engagement in politics. It is an attempt to use the internet to make television better rather than to concede its eclipse, by marrying brief fragments of online speech with the one-way, single-channel authority of a television program broadcast live across a nation by a public service broadcaster. The research draws on data about Twitter use supplied by the ABC and its contractor TweeVee TV, OzTAM television ratings data, interviews and email correspondence with ABC staff and others conducted by the two authors between June and October 2011, and observations on the making of the episode of the show in Sydney on 29 May 2011. Keywords: digital television, public service broadcasting, social media, television, Twitter Here’s what we’ll be looking for as we dip into the #QandA stream— • tweets that are concise (short), timely and on topic • tweets that are witty and entertaining • tweets that add a fresh perspective to the debate • tweets that make a point without getting too personal (ABC 2011a) Introduction In May 2010, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) began to display Twitter ‘tweets’ on-screen in the broadcast of the hour-long, weekly current affairs discussion program, Q&A.1 In each hour-long episode, around 80–100 tweets using the hashtag #qanda are selected for display in the broadcast program. -
