'Leading Involves Cruel Choices... Peta Credlin Must Do Her Patriotic Duty 'Leading involves cruel choices... Peta Credlin must do her patriotic duty and resign': Murdoch calls for scalp of PM's chief adviser over 'Knightmare' fiasco - but top Libs say she's going nowhere Rupert Murdoch says Peta Credlin 'must do her patriotic duty and resign' News Corp columnist Miranda Devine blamed her for Prince Philip gaffe Mr Abbott today said Ms Credlin had nothing to do with the decision MPs have complained about her tight control on the PM's office The News Corp Australia chairman recently met Julie Bishop By DANIEL PIOTROWSKI FOR DAILY MAIL AUSTRALIA PUBLISHED: 12:55 EST, 28 January 2015 | UPDATED: 19:59 EST, 28 January 2015 Media mogul Rupert Murdoch has fired his second broadside at Prime Minister Tony Abbott in just two days, urging him to sack his chief of staff Peta Credlin. In a series of social media posts, Murdoch wrote that Mr Abbott's controversial top adviser 'must do her patriotic duty and resign' if he doesn't sack her. The demand came after the billionaire branded Mr Abbott's decision to knight Prince Philip a 'joke and embarrassment' and a News Corp columnist said Credlin should be sacrificed. Murdoch tweeted: 'Forget fairness. This change only way to recover team work and achieve so much possible for Australia. Leading involves cruel choices'. He later justified his message by praising Credlin's character. '(She's) a good person. Just appealing to her proven patriotism.' Following public ridicule and dissension in his own ranks, the prime minister today said he stood by his decision to knight the Duke of Edinburgh. But he told reporters in Melbourne he accepted people were upset by it. 'I respect their right to be critical... and I take it on the chin, I take it on the chin.' +12 Mr Abbott has insisted his decision was a 'captain's pick' and that he did not consult with Ms Credlin. 'There does need to be wider consultation around these awards in the future'. Ms Credlin has been the subject of internal dissent within the Liberal Party over the past year. Several unnamed MPs have told the press they are chafing under her tight direction of the Prime Minister's Office, or PMO. Prime Minister Tony Abbott has stridently defended his top political operator, telling the ABC in December: 'Do you really think my chief of staff would be under this kind of criticism if her name was Peter as opposed to Peta?' The remarks came after a frontbencher reportedly told The Australian that Ms Credlin and Foreign Minister Julie Bishop 'were like two Siamese fighting fish in the same tank' and that their relationship had broken down. Murdoch met with Ms Bishop in New York at the weekend, according to the Australian Financial Review. A column by opinion writer Miranda Devine in the Daily Telegraph today said Ms Credlin was being blamed for Mr Abbott's gaffe and she should be sacrificed. She suggested Mr Abbott replace her with News Corp columnist Chris Kenny, a former adviser to one-time Foreign Minister Alexander Downer. 'The Prime Minister has to make a sacrificial offering to convince his colleagues that he has learned a lesson,' Devine wrote. 'Something that causes him pain, like chopping off his right arm. In other words, moving on chief of staff Peta Credlin. 'Justly or not, she is being blamed for the Prince Philip gaffe. 'It was Abbott’s decision but it’s the job of the chief of staff, who he has been known to call the Boss, to stop him from making such a blunder.' Education Minister Christopher Pyne has already jumped to Ms Credlin's defence, saying she was 'absolutely intrinsic to our success'. 'I support the chief of staff, Peta Credlin,' he said. 'I don’t think there is any prospect of his suggestion being pursued by the government.' ABBOTT STANDS BY PRINCE PHILIP The PM today told reporters he stood be his decision to bestow a knigthood on Prince Philip, saying he had made a 'great contribution' to Australian public life. 'I accept that it's been a contentious decision – I absolutely accept that – and I absolutely respect people's rights to disagree with my call on this,' he said. 'But Prince Philip has been a distinguished servant of this country throughout a long and active public life. 'He’s been part of some of the big events in our national life going back to the 1956 Olympics here in this city (Melbourne). Mr Abbott pointed to the popularity of the Duke of Edinburgh Leadership Awards as one of his major contributions. Rupert Murdoch was far from the only figure to criticise Mr Abbott's 'captain's call'. Queensland premier Campbell Newman, who is in the fight of his political life on the campaign trail, told reporters he disagreed with the decision and described it as a 'bolt from the blue'. Nationals deputy leader Barnaby Joyce told ABC Radio: 'I'm always of the strong belief that all awards should be for Australians'. Backbencher Ewen Jones told the ABC he was fine for previous governors-general to be made knights and dames knighthoods and d +1 Murdoch was far from alone in criticising the knighthood, with Queensland Liberal National Party MPs Warren Entsch and Ewen Jones criticising the decision in various media interviews. They were joined by Northern Territory Chief Minister Adam Giles - a Country Liberal - who told reporters on Monday: 'It's Australia Day. We're not a bunch of tossers, let's get it right.' Even former prime minister John Howard, an Abbott mentor, declined to comment on the decision when approached by Ten Eyewitness News this week. In an Australia Day press conference, Mr Abbott wrote off widespread derision on social media by describing it as 'electronic graffiti' - a far cry from his remarks today. 'Social media is kind of like electronic graffiti and I think that in the media, you make a big mistake to pay too much attention to social media,' he told reporters. The prime minister's standing has flagged with colleagues after a series of bungled policy decisions, including an attempt to ram through an unpopular cut to the Medicare rebate. .

What they said... 'I certainly felt that the values I expressed and the action I took would have the overwhelming endorsement of Australians' Malcolm Turnbull, Prime Minister of Australia, commenting on his ban on sexual relations between ministers and staffers 'It's a basic principle of human rights that people can have relationships with whom they like' Ronnie Fox, a British employment law specialist from Fox and Partners The issue at a glance On February 15, 2018, the Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, made an addition to the Australian Government's 'Statement of Ministerial Standards'. The addition states, 'Ministers must not engage in sexual relations with their staff. Doing so will constitute a breach of this code.' https://www.pmc.gov.au/sites/default/files/publications/statement-ministerial-standards.pdf The addition to the Ministerial Standards came after the Daily Telegraph revealed that the Deputy Prime Minister, Barnaby Joyce, had been having a sexual relationship with his former media adviser, Vikki Campion. On February 7, 2018, the Daily Telegraph published a front page story reporting that Mr Joyce and Ms Campion were expecting a child together. https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw /deputy-pm-barnaby-joyce-and-exstaffer-and-journalist-vikki-campion-expecting-a-baby/news- story/affccfbe8df768e5b9ddc9920154be6b Debate has since raged as to whether Mr Joyce had used his position to find alternative employment for Ms Campion on other ministers' staff.

Platforms have altered how people search, find, and share information, and how social interactions take place online. This new era of user practices, micro-communication cultures, and an increasing algorithmic shaping of sociability, opens up new research endeavours to understand communication as a cultural practice. While platforms are reluctant to acknowledge that they work as media companies, and present themselves as being ‘neutral’, they intervene in public discourse through their design, policies, and corporate decisions. This intervention is increasingly under public scrutiny at a time when racist and sexist speech is thriving online. The entanglement between user practices and platforms in the reinforcement of racism is the focus of my research. Specifically, I argue that this entanglement

  • Miranda Devine Selfishly Exploits Justine Damond Tragedy for Her Own Ends
    Miranda Devine selfishly exploits Justine Damond tragedy for her own ends MICHAEL BRADLEY Managing Partner, Marque Lawyers I might tentatively suggest that a “normal” human reaction to the news that Australian woman Justine Damond had been shot dead by a Minneapolis police officer would have been something like shock, empathy and helpless despair. As the revelations quickly unfolded — she had called the police, she was in pyjamas, the shooter’s name was Mohammed Noor, he was Somali- American — understandable confusion would likely emerge. Then life would go on, as it does in the face of the incomprehensible. At least, as it used to, before these times of hyper-categorisation, where everything said or done is no longer allowed to be simply awful but must be instantly co-opted as proof. Of something. For Miranda Devine, there is apparently no time to waste on sentimentalities such as acknowledging that a person is tragically dead. As with her immediate reaction to the laying of sexual assault charges against Cardinal George Pell — to accuse the Victorian Police Commissioner of trumping up the charges to distract attention from a crime wave she insists is being perpetrated by (surprise!) young black men — Devine launched straight into explaining Why This Event Proves My Point. The logic is certainly peculiar, but here’s her summary: “A black cop killing an unarmed white woman does not fit the narrative pushed by Black Lives Matter activists. But they may as well have pulled the trigger.” I guess it is obvious when you put it that way. You see, the Black Lives Matter movement, with its unwarranted objections to the shooting of unarmed black men by white cops, has achieved nothing other than making the police nervous and, therefore, more likely to shoot innocent people.

Each year, some 27,000 deaths in Australian acute care hospitals are associated with iatrogenic harm. Such harm in its iatrogenic form raises for us, in an urgent contemporary setting, some of the perennial questions associated with moral and legal answerability and questions of the limits of medicine, the difficulty of healing and of the politics of care.

  • The 'Young Muslim Man' in Australian Public Discourse
    THE ‘YOUNG MUSLIM MAN’ IN AUSTRALIAN PUBLIC DISCOURSE Transforming Cultures eJournal, Vol. 2 No 1, November 2007 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/journals/TfC Kiran Grewal Abstract Through an analysis of two highly mediatised recent events in Australia this article seeks to interrogate the intersections of gender, ethnicity and culture in the construction of Australian national identity. A series of gang rapes in the early 2000s attracted widespread public outrage and the harshest ever condemnation of acts of sexual violence in Australian history. Linked to these events, in December 2005 a series of riots at the Sydney beachside suburb of Cronulla led to further questioning of ethnic relations and the state of Australian multiculturalism within media and political discourses. While many of the responses to the gang rapes and the Cronulla riots have drawn on the language of ‘women’s rights’, a closer look at the discourses suggests a different story. Responses to the gang rapes have often characterised the attacks as being against the Australian community, rather than against individual women. It is also interesting to contrast the outrage surrounding the gang rapes with the general silence regarding the increased racist violence committed against Muslim women in recent times. Furthermore, the linking of the gang rapes with a particular religious/ethnic community can be contrasted with the discourses on the alleged gang rapes involving Australian sporting teams, such as the Bulldogs and more recently the Wests Tigers. Finally the manner in which the events of Cronulla have been recast and linked back to the ‘threat’ posed by young Muslim/Lebanese/Middle Eastern men to Australian women suggests that ethnicity and gender both play an important and mutually reinforcing role in the construction of Australian national identity.

This report analyses one aspect of the climate change debate in Australia by examining the Mann et al (1998, 1999) climate reconstruction and the ensuing ‘hockey stick’ controversy. It explores how the Lavoisier Group used the challenges to Mann et al to discredit the findings and processes of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The report then looks at the way in which this debate and its implications were reported in The Australian, and suggests the degree to which coverage of this particular debate may have influenced the Federal Government position on climate change.
