  • 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.

    Statement of Charles Mathias Associate Chief, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau Federal Communications Commission Before the United States Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation Hearing on Passenger Rail Safety: Accident Prevention and On‐Going Efforts to Implement Train Control Technology June 10, 2015 Chairman Thune, Ranking Member Nelson, and distinguished members of the Committee, thank you for inviting me to testify before the Committee today. Like the rest of the nation, we at the FCC are deeply saddened by the tragic Amtrak derailment in Philadelphia. We send our condolences to the families of those who lost their loved ones and our gratitude to the first responders for their efforts. I want to assure you that the FCC is doing – and will continue to do – its part to facilitate the implementation of Positive Train Control, or PTC. Promoting the safety of life and property through the use of wire and radio communication is a top FCC priority. Since passage of the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (Act), we have worked directly with freight, passenger, and commuter rails to help them obtain spectrum licenses and complete statutorily‐ required historic preservation and environmental reviews prior to deploying infrastructure to implement PTC. We have also worked closely with existing spectrum licensees, our federal partners, including the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and the Department of Transportation’s Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), as well as Tribal Nations and state officials to facilitate the implementation of Positive Train Control. THE FCC’S ROLE IN PTC As the nation’s expert agency on communications, the FCC helps facilitate spectrum acquisition by freight and passenger railroads.

CONCLUSION ............................................ 276 R The dominant scholarly consensus holds that the Fair Housing Act of 1968 was “toothless” and devoid of enforcement; in the words of the pre-eminent scholars of U.S. housing segregation, it was “intentionally designed so that it would not and could not work.” This Article demonstrates that this consensus is wrong, and that in fact the Fair Housing Act contained ample enforcement mechanisms. Moreover, it reveals the “secret history” of the Fair Housing Act, namely, that it passed in 1968 not through congressional perfidy, but rather through a classic political deal between President Lyndon Johnson and Senate Republican Leader Everett Dirksen, in which a weakened Dirksen agreed to support fair housing to preserve his leadership position and very probably his Senate seat.
