GOLD WALKLEY Conference What’S the Story Will Be Held at the National Film & Sound CATEGORY SPONSOR Archive in Canberra on November 29 & 30 WALKLEY AWARD FINALISTS ANNOUNCED THURSDAY, 18 OCTOBER 2012 From scoops to scandals, world events and previously untold stories – the Walkley Award finalists for 2012 demonstrate the ongoing strength and diversity of journalism in Australia. Finalists in the general categories of the 57th annual Walkley Awards for Excellence in Journalism were announced at simultaneous events in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane tonight. Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance federal secretary Christopher Warren said the high standard of 2012 Walkley Award entries showed the enduring value of quality journalism in a challenging period for the media industry. “This year’s Walkley Award entries show that despite the financial and regulatory pressures being placed on journalists and newsrooms, the demand for high-quality, independent journalism continues growing every year,” Mr Warren said. Finalists for the Business Award, the Nikon-Walkley Awards for Excellence in Photojournalism and the Documentary Award were announced earlier this week. The 2012 Walkley Awards attracted more than 1300 entries, with winners to be announced on November 30 at the Awards Presentation and Gala Dinner at Parliament House in Canberra, broadcast on SBS. A special Capital Edition of The Walkley Foundation’s annual media GOLD WALKLEY conference What’s the Story will be held at the National Film & Sound CATEGORY SPONSOR Archive in Canberra on November 29 & 30. The conference features the best line-up of local and international speakers for any media conference in Australia, including New York Times founding interactive news editor Aron Pilhofer, ABC Director of News Kate Torney and Canberra Times editor-at-large Jack Waterford. Both the Gala Dinner and Conference are sponsored by Centenary of Canberra, an initiative of the ACT Government, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Australia’s capital city in 2013.

DISTINGUISHED VISITORS Mr SPEAKER: I welcome to the public gallery His Excellency Mr Kabir, the High Commissioner of Bangladesh, and Mrs Kabir, and Mr Anthony Khouri, the Consul-General of Bangladesh, who are guests of the honourable m embers for Macquarie Fields. FIRE BANS Ministerial Statement Mr MORRIS IEMMA (Lakemba—Premier, Minister for State Development, and Minister for Citizenship) [2.17 p.m.]: Total fire bans are again in place across most of the State today as firefighters battle a number of bushfires in the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley, Forbes, Oberon and the South Coast. Hot, dry and windy conditions have resulted in very high to extreme fire danger in many districts. Emergency declarations have been made for a number of the fires now burning. About 900 volunteer firefighters from the Rural Fire Service have been deployed, along with their colleagues from New South Wales Fire Brigades, Forests NSW and the National Parks and Wildlife Service. I acknowledge the employers of all of our volunteers for their ongoing support in allowing them to leave their workplaces to protect the community. The most serious of the fires are those currently burning in the Blue Mountains, where firefighters have been battling two bushfires in the Grose Valley for the past nine days.

  • KENNEDY AWARDS Excellence in Australian Journalism
    KENNEDY AWARDS Excellence in Australian Journalism 10th Anniversary Sponsorship Prospectus DIMITY CLANCEY AND LAURA MANGHAM OF A CURRENT AFFAIR WIN THE 2020 MIKE WILLESEE AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING NIGHTLY CURRENT AFFAIRS THE HISTORY OF THE KENNEDY AWARDS NAMED after the trailblazing indigenous journalist Les Kennedy, the Kennedy Awards were initially conceived in 2011 to recognise excellence in New South Wales journalism. Almost immediately the Kennedys were shaped by the nature of the entrants - attracting journalists from the likes of Four Corners, 60 Minutes, The Australian, A Current Affair, 730 Report, SBS and the Financial Review to become a truly independent, national celebration of Australian journalism. The awards were created by journalists for journalists - open to all-comers with no agendas or historical obligation to affiliation. A decade later the Kennedys have become the Australian media's night of nights - celebrated for their inclusiveness, independence, respect for the past and the value of fostering the next generation of the nation's finest journalists. SANDRA SALLY (RIGHT) PRESENTS THE HARRY POTTER AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING TV NEWS REPORTING J U N E 2 0 2 0 . Les Kennedy THE INSPIRATION OF THE KENNEDY AWARDS Les Kennedy was never in the officers' mess of journalism - and nor did he want to be. He loved nothing better than excelling on the road as a leader of other "shoe leather" journalists. Proud of his indigenous heritage, Les' awareness of his past and the pride he took in it were the twin chambers of a big, generous heart. It was his fabled generosity that fuelled a selfless devotion to a long list of protégés.

  • Questions & Answers & Tweets
    Questions & Answers & Tweets Jock Given & Natalia Radywyl Abstract This article reports on the integration of Twitter messages into the live television broadcast of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s (ABC) weekly public affairs discussion program, Q&A. The program first went to air in May 2008; Twitter integration began two years later. Twitter integration is an evolving example of ‘participation television’, but not one that involves the kind of remote- control/set-top-box interactivity that digital television promised. Q&A integrates broadcast and online content in a way the program makers thought would serve the animating purpose of the television program: to increase public engagement in politics. It is an attempt to use the internet to make television better rather than to concede its eclipse, by marrying brief fragments of online speech with the one-way, single-channel authority of a television program broadcast live across a nation by a public service broadcaster. The research draws on data about Twitter use supplied by the ABC and its contractor TweeVee TV, OzTAM television ratings data, interviews and email correspondence with ABC staff and others conducted by the two authors between June and October 2011, and observations on the making of the episode of the show in Sydney on 29 May 2011. Keywords: digital television, public service broadcasting, social media, television, Twitter Here’s what we’ll be looking for as we dip into the #QandA stream— • tweets that are concise (short), timely and on topic • tweets that are witty and entertaining • tweets that add a fresh perspective to the debate • tweets that make a point without getting too personal (ABC 2011a) Introduction In May 2010, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) began to display Twitter ‘tweets’ on-screen in the broadcast of the hour-long, weekly current affairs discussion program, Q&A.1 In each hour-long episode, around 80–100 tweets using the hashtag #qanda are selected for display in the broadcast program.

    CLIMATE CRISIS AND CORONAVIRUS ARTICLES Reporting Black Lives Matters Deaths in custody journalism in Australia Abstract: George Floyd’s death at the knee of USA police sparked protests and renewed reporting of Indigenous deaths in custody in Australia. As the 30th anniversary of the release of the final report of the Australian Royal Com- mission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody approaches, it is timely to update Wendy Bacon’s 2005 research on deaths in custody journalism. While most deaths in custody continue to pass in judicial and media silence, this article, written from a white journalism academic’s perspective, includes instances of in-depth reporting since 2005, journalism that meets the Royal Commis- sion’s observation that journalism can contribute to justice for Aboriginal people when it places deaths in custody in their social and moral contexts. It also includes mini-case study of the news coverage of Mr Ward’s 2008 death, which demonstrates the relationship between governmental or judicial processes and announcements and patterns of coverage. It also notes the ef- fect that First Nations journalists are having on the prevalence, perspectives and depth of deaths in custody journalism. Information and resources are provided for journalists and journalism students to more effectively report Indigenous deaths in custody, include Indigenous voices in their stories, and to better understand trauma and take care of themselves, their sources and their communities. Keywords: Australia, Black Lives Matter, deaths in custody, deaths in custody journalism, deaths in custody reporting resources, Indigenous, investigative journalism, Mr Ward, Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody BONITA MASON University of South Australia, Adelaide ‘Oh shit, she’s dead.’ HESE were the words spoken when a prison clinic nurse eventually en- tered the cell of an Indigenous prisoner and found her lifeless.

  • ABC Wins Gold at 2015 Walkley Awards
    RELEASED: Friday December 4, 2015 ABC Wins Gold at 2015 Walkley Awards The ABC has won the Gold Walkley and seven other trophies at the 2015 Walkley Awards for Excellence in Journalism, Australian journalism’s most prestigious honours, making it the most awarded media outlet. The Four Corners team of Caro Meldrum-Hanna, Sam Clark and Max Murch were awarded the top honour for their expose ‘Making a Killing’, which uncovered the cruel and illegal use of live baiting in the greyhound racing industry. The team also won the Walkley for Investigative Journalism. The Walkley judges said: “’Making a Killing’ exposes greyhound racing’s ugly secret. It took bravery, tenacity and months of planning in three states to produce a jaw- dropping report that has shaken not just the greyhound code but the entire racing industry.” The ABC had 26 finalists across 16 categories, the most of any media organisation. ABC Managing Director Mark Scott commended the ABC Walkley nominees and congratulated the winners, in particular, Caro Meldrum-Hanna, Sam Clarke and Max Murch for their Gold Walkley. “Last night's Walkley Awards showcased the best in Australian journalism,” he said. “The ABC is proud that its journalists drawn from across ABC radio, television and news and current affairs were featured so prominently in the awards. “The ABC has had an outstanding year in its coverage of key events and breaking stories that set the national news agenda. “The ABC is the most trusted news outlet in the country and the 2015 Walkleys results reflect this position." Director of News Gaven Morris said the winners list demonstrated the breadth and depth of ABC content, encompassing news and current affairs, multimedia storytelling, business and investigative reporting, documentary and camerawork.
