Journalism And Hrecs: From Square Pegs To Squeaky Wheels, Kayt Davies Jan 2011

Journalism And Hrecs: From Square Pegs To Squeaky Wheels, Kayt Davies

Research outputs 2011

This article follows on from a discussion by Richards (2010) about ethics committees and journalism researchers being ‘uneasy bedfellows’.

Reporting From Down Under: Foreign Correspondents In Australia, Beate Josephi Jan 2011

Reporting From Down Under: Foreign Correspondents In Australia, Beate Josephi

Research outputs 2011

This paper draws on a study of 12 foreign correspondents reporting on Australia for print, radio, TV and news agencies. The study found evidence that while new technology may have changed transmission speeds, it has not changed the nature of events they report on. News ranking is still determined by factors such as political influence and trade volumes, news values and news interest. Australia - medium-sized, geographically on the periphery and politically stable - is not a major player on the world political stage. As a country, it is always more likely to come to the world's attention because of …
