Brendan O’Neill’s revealing moment #Qanda #Notw

Brendan O’Neill’s revealing moment #Qanda #Notw

By Kim on August 2, 2011

In his appearance on Q&A last night, editor of Spiked and libertarian gadfly Brendan O’Neill said more than he ought to have. O’Neill is apparently an alumnus of some Trotskyist group or other, and like other leftie turned righties (or [...]

Has Twitter made a difference to press focus on the trail?

By Kim on August 9, 2010

Putting the tragic back in political tragic

By Mark Bahnisch on August 7, 2010

Originally published at the ABC’s Drumroll campaign blog. I’ve been largely tuned out of the election campaign today, enjoying a friend’s visit and popping into town to buy a couple of books to read. So I’ve only seen two snippets [...]

Guest post by Pavlov’s Cat: Sorry Annabel, not good enough

By Guest Poster on August 7, 2010

Originally published at Still Life With Cat: The ABC’s Annabel Crabb published a long, informative, entertaining piece at The Drum the other day, characteristically witty and meaty, in defence of journalists and their current behaviour and reportage on the campaign [...]

Laurie Oakes claims Kevin Rudd proposed a Kirribilli style deal to Julia Gillard on 23 June

By Mark Bahnisch on July 15, 2010

In the q&a after a fairly predictable speech by the Prime Minister on economic policy at the National Press Club today, Laurie Oakes asked her a question which implied that Kevin Rudd had indicated, on the night of June 23, [...]

By Kim on July 1, 2010

Mark’s article in The Drum last week honed in on the role of the media in Rudd’s downfall (among other issues raised). Now Matthew Ricketson, Professor of Journalism at the University of Canberra, has written an excellent essay for Crikey [...]

Quick links: What's wrong with the media this election year?

By Mark Bahnisch on June 17, 2010

A couple of very interesting articles popped up in my rss reader today: Media Watch host Jonathan Holmes on the distortions of ‘he said, she said’ journalism (with particular reference to the RSPT) and University of Sydney Emeritus Professor Rodney [...]

So how about that media narrative now?

By Mark Bahnisch on June 16, 2010

Over the long weekend, I noted the frenzy The Australian was stirring up about the purported deadline on Rudd’s leadership, built on a foundation of a self-serving article from mining company director Keith De Lacy and quotes from NSW Right [...]

The ETS election we never had

By Mark Bahnisch on May 17, 2010

We’ve spent a fair bit of time, justly, concentrating on what Mr Denmore called in his guest post “churnalism” – the recycling of PR spin in the guise of news, stirred into to a toxic cocktail of misinformation with a [...]
