  • JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013
    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013 Published: November 28, 2013 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2013 published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD) outlines how the financialisation of New Zealand media intensified as News Limited pulled out of Sky TV, and as lenders took 100 percent control of MediaWorks. In 2013, controversy erupted when it was revealed that a journalist’s phone records had been handed to a ministerial inquiry without her consent. The move was condemned by over 300 journalists as the government’s invasion of privacy was seen as a threat to media freedom. The government also passed legislation giving extra surveillance powers to the Government Communication Security Bureau (GCSB). This represented an institutional threat to journalistic autonomy. The report also finds that the bloggers and blogosphere gained prominence and influence in relation to the commercially driven mainstream media. In October 2013, there were 280 ranked blogs in New Zealand, and the top political blogs recorded high visitor numbers. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media ownership Financial institutions take control of Sky TV and MediaWorks MediaWorks goes into receivership, keeps losing content rights Bauer media grows in influence, buys The Listener and other magazines Sky TV stirred, but not shaken by the Commerce Commission and new competitors Leading newspapers stall paywalls, local papers launch them APN and Fairfax newsrooms shrink, profit boosted by asset sales and job cuts This New Zealand Media Ownership Report is the third published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD).

    2009 I1[eistatiur Asumblg Wednesday, 24 August 1988 THE SPEAKER (Mr Bamnett) took the Chair at 2.15 pm, and read prayers. MOTION - MANNING, IVEN WEMYSS Condolences MR PEARCE (Armadale - Leader of the House) [2.17 pm]: I move, without notice - That this House records its sincere regret at the death of [yen Wemyss Manning and tenders its deep sympathy to his widow Jill and members of his family in their bereavement. Mr Iven Manning died at the age of 70 on 20 July 1988. He served in the State Parliament for 24 years from March 1950 to March 1974, and represented the Legislative Assembly seats of Harvey and Wel-lington. He was Chairman of Committees for three years between I963 and 65; he was the Government Whip between 1965 and 71; and he was the Opposition Whip between 1971 and 74.

A CITY FOR ALL SEASONS A CASE STUDY OF URBAN PLACE PROMOTION by Andrea Schollmann Promoting cities as tourism de~tinations is seen as a way to enable growth. This promotion involves the projection of selective imagery to specific target groups and often includes the physical reshaping of places to fit a promotable image. Attempts to understand these processes have often focused on one of two approaches: a global perspective stressing the consumptive nature of the tourist gaze and the resultant commodification of place at the local level; and a local perspective emphasising difference and uniqueness. My thesis outlines an investigation into the promotion of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand.

SITE-SPECIFIC AND SPATIALLY-DISTRIBUTED GROUND- MOTION INTENSITY ESTIMATION IN THE 2010-2011 CANTERBURY EARTHQUAKES Brendon A Bradley1 1Department of Civil and Natural Resources Engineering, University of Canterbury, Private Bag 4800, Christchurch, New Zealand *Ph +64 3 364 2987 x 7395, [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper presents site-specific and spatially-distributed ground-motion intensity estimates which have been utilized in the aftermath of the 2010-2011 Canterbury, New Zealand earthquakes. The methodology underpinning the ground motion intensity estimation makes use of both prediction models for ground motion intensity and its within-event spatial correlation. A key benefit of the methodology is that the estimated ground motion intensity at a given location is not a single value but a distribution of values. The distribution is comprised of both a mean and standard deviation, with the standard deviation being a function of the distance to nearby observations at strong motion stations. The methodology is illustrated for two applications. Firstly, maps of conditional peak ground acceleration (PGA) have been developed for the major events in the Canterbury earthquake sequence, which among other things, have been utilized for assessing liquefaction triggering susceptibility of land in residential areas. Secondly, the conditional distribution of response spectral ordinates is obtained at the location of the Canterbury Television building (CTV), which catastrophically collapsed in the 22 February 2011 earthquake.

I value their advice and contributions to the thesis and without their highly critical reviews and feedback, the thesis will be nothing than a complete recycle of existing knowledge. I also appreciate the valuable contributions of my Examiners, Professor Jock Given of the Swinburne University of Technology, Australia and Assistant Professor Gregory Taylor of the University of Calgary, Canada. The feedback and report of the Examination provided the much needed critical evaluation of my research to improve my research findings. I also appreciate Associate Professor Donald Matheson for chairing my oral examination. I also appreciate the University of Canterbury for providing me with various opportunities to acquire valuable skills in my course of research, academic learning support, teaching and administrative works. Particularly, I appreciate Professor Linda Jean Kenix, who gave me an opportunity as a research assistant during the course of my research. I value this rare opportunity as it was my first major exposure to academic research and an opportunity to understand the academia beyond my research topic.

CURBE was established in 1997 to create a structure for interdisciplinary collaboration for disaster and risk research and application. Projects link the skills and expertise from distinct disciplines to understand and resolve disaster and risk issues, particularly related to reducing detrimental impacts of disasters. CURBE is based at the Martin Centre within the Department of Architecture at the University of Cambridge. About the research This report is one of a number of outputs from a research project funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), entitled Indicators for Measuring, Monitoring and Evaluating Post-Disaster Recovery. The overall aim of the research is to develop indicators of recovery by exploiting the wealth of data now available, including that from satellite imagery, internet-based statistics and advanced field survey techniques. The specific aim of this trip report is to describe the planning process after major disaster with a view to understanding the information needs of planners.

A project on the lived geographies of relocation disrupts the predominance of model based approaches in hazards and disaster literature. The previously taken-for- granted aspects of how people relate to one another and are in turn shaped by those relationships are of central concern. The research brings together the stories of people from 19 households who moved to the Waikato region of New Zealand as a result of the Canterbury earthquakes and aftershocks.
