    J S Battye Library of West Australian History Private Archives – Collection Listing RESTRICTED MN 1301 Acc. 7153A SIR CHARLES COURT COLLECTION Charles Walter Michael Court was born in Sussex, England, on September 29, 1911, and migrated to Australia with his parents while a baby. The family settled in Perth and Sir Charles attended primary school in Leederville and then Perth Boys’ School. He was interested in music from an early age and joined the RSL Memorial Band at the age of 12. A talented cornet player he won the brass solo division of the 1928 national band competition. His interest in music was a lifelong passion and he played wind instruments in several orchestras. After leaving school, Sir Charles studied accountancy, becoming a founding partner in the firm Hendry, Rae and Court in 1938 where he retained an office until he was well into his 80s. In 1936, he married Rita Steffanoni and, in 1940, enlisted in the army as a private. Sir Charles rose to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel by the time of his discharge in 1946, after distinguished service in the Pacific. He had five sons, Victor, Barry, Ken, Richard and Geoffrey with his first wife Rita, who died in 1992. In 1953, Sir Charles began his political career by winning the seat of Nedlands. Within three years of his election to parliament, Sir Charles became Deputy Leader of the Opposition, and when the Liberal – Country Party government of David Brand was elected in 1959, he became Minister for Industrial Development, the North West and Railways.

  • Reassessing the Bunbury Bombing
    Reassessing the Bunbury Bombing: Juxtaposition of Political and Media Narratives Kate O’Donnell† and Jacqui Ewart ABSTRACT This paper examines an Australian newspaper’s coverage of the bombing of an export port terminal in Bunbury, Western Australia on 19 July, 1976. We wanted to see how The West Australian newspaper framed the story, its precursor events, and the events that followed. We were particularly interested in whether the bombing was reported as an act of terrorism because the then Premier of Western Australia, Sir Charles Court, immediately decried it as “a gross act of terrorism.” We find the newspaper resisted the lure to apply this label, and couched the story in terms of serious criminality. However, it did so before the 1978 Hilton Hotel bombing; an event the news media heralded as the “arrival” of terrorism in Australia. Also, this occurred before what could be argued the sensationalist and politicised reporting of terror-related events became normalised. Keywords: Bunbury bombing, news media framing, environmental protest, terrorism INTRODUCTION espite terrorism being “as old as history,” academic interest in it as a field of D study only gained serious momentum in the 1970s (Duyvesteyn, 2004: 440). It is now an expansive and contested multi-disciplinary scholarship. As a term, terrorism remains inherently difficult to define and its meaning is constructed in different academic, legal, political and colloquial contexts (Easson & Schmid, 2011: 99–157; Schmid, 2011; Tiefenbrun, 2002). While it is an expansive and contested scholarship, at the core of the contemporary concept of terrorism is that it is ideologically or politically-motivated criminality and violence (Schmid, 2011).
