The debate was continuing at the end of the 12 months under review, for the Productivity Commission was inquiring into media ownership rules, content regulations, licence fees and the impending switch from analogue to digital technologies. Some media proprietors were suggesting the new technologies were making the old laws obsolete. At John Fairfax Holdings, another year, another chief executive. Bob Muscat became the third Fairfax CEO in three years to resign. Editor John Lyons departed sacked or otherwise, depending on your source. And there was an exodus of other key Fairfax editorial personnel to The Bulletin in the wake of Max Walshs departure to become editor-in-chief. The major shareholder, Brierley Investments Ltd, sold its 24.4 percent stake in Fairfax, leaving the ownership of Fairfax almost as indistinct as the Herald and Weekly Times Ltd was before News Ltd took over the group. The Australian Broadcasting Authority found that the interests held by Brian Powers (chairman) and Kerry Packer did not breach cross-media ownership rules. It could be loosely said that during the year Rupert Murdoch buried his first wife, divorced his second and married his third. This raised complicated questions of dynastic succession that had previously seemed to be fairly straightforward. Lachlan Murdoch also married.

  • MEETING REPORT PETER HITCHENER on Monday 15 June, Following Our Club Zoom Meeting, We Then Met Our Speaker Peter Hitchener, Via Zoom
    No 43A President: Stuart Williams 17 June 2020 Hi folks, Due to the gremlin in my computer eating Barbara’s report on our meeting with Peter Hitchener, the report did not make it into the original newsletter. My apologies to Barbara for this error. The upside is – you get two newsletters this week!! MEETING REPORT PETER HITCHENER On Monday 15 June, following our club zoom meeting, we then met our speaker Peter Hitchener, via zoom. What a personable, friendly attitude he had! He thought he may have been the only person alive before TV, but we all reassured him that we all enjoyed radio serials on the wireless, as did he. He reminded us that TV came to Melbourne at the same time as the Olympic Games in 1956. His favourite show at that time was the Mickey Mouse Club. He mentioned in the early days there were lots of local productions, eg. In Melbourne Tonight (IMT) with various compares, Sir Eric Pearce, Bert Newton, Graham Kennedy, where often the audience had to wait years to get tickets. Peter grew up in Queensland, joined Channel 9 in 1973 and moved to Melbourne in 1974. He remembered wearing body shirts, and suits with wide lapels and of enjoying fondues and old wines. He worked with Sir Eric Pearce, who he said should have been a Rotarian, as Sir Eric was always helping people and doing good. Following Sir Eric, Brian Naylor read the news for 20 years, garnering a huge following, until his retirement in 1998, when Peter took over the role.

  • A History of Veganism from 1806
    1 World Veganism – past, present, and future By John Davis, former IVU Manager and Historian A collection of blogs © John Davis 2010-12 Introduction This PDF e-book is about 8mb, 219 pages A4, (equivalent to 438 page paperback book), so I strongly recommend that you save a copy to your own disk, then open it in the Adobe Acrobat Reader. That way, you won’t have to download it all again if you want to read more of it sometime later. Creating this as a PDF e-book has several advantages, especially if you are reading this on a device connected to the internet. For example: - in the blog about interviews on SMTV, just click on the links to watch the videos - in the bibliography click to read a complete scan of an original very old book. - on the contents page click a link to go direct to any item, then click ‘back to top’. - you can also, of course, use other features such as search, zoom etc. etc. - a great advance on printed books… It should work on any device, though an ipad/tablet is ideal for this as there are lots of big colour photos, or on smart-phones try rotating for best results, on a larger computer monitor try view/page display/two up, to read it like a book. The blogs were posted weekly from February 2010 to December 2012 and each is self- contained, with the assumption that readers might not have seen any of the others. So feel free to start anywhere, and read them in any order, no need to read from the beginning.
