AUSTRALIA ; TELEVISION ; TELEVISION. AUSTRALIA ; MORECROFT, RICHARD Summary: "Richard Morecroft is a familiar face in Australian homes... from the waist up! Now, in this collection of amusing anecdotes and surprising stories, Richard reveals the lighter side of life for a serious broadcaster. Why does our favourite news anchor have his own halo? Does a baby bat in his shirt help him read the headlines? And what's the worst mistake he's ever made on air? Then there are times when the public and private collide. Beaming into thousands of homes each night guarantees familiarity, but sometimes Richard gets more than he bargains for. Like being hugged and kissed in a lift by a complete stranger...Like being stalked in a car park by senior citizens...Like being accused of having a secret facelift...
Richard Morecroft has been the face of ABC television news for almost two decades. In addition to his familiar nightly news role, he has fronted current affairs and business programs, anchored election broadcasts, written and narrated wildlife and other documentaries, and hosted a range of educational producations.

AUSTRALIA Summary: "The life and works of 'Aunty', the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, continue to be the subject of public debate and often heated controversy, but they are seldom analysed in any depth. In this book Glyn Davis sets out to take the ABC apart, layer by layer, to reveal the contradictions in purpose and form which bedevil Australia's public broadcasting network. Emphasising the interplay between the ABC and its social and political context, Breaking Up the ABC subjects the recent internal reforms to careful scrutiny. Will these reforms end 'Aunty's' perennial difficulties? Or is the organisation doomed to permanent crisis? Can the corporation, as David Hill hopes, win back an audience and the political support crucial to its continuing existence? Having broken up the institution, how should the pieces be rearranged? This book offers new combinations to ensure the continuing viability of public broadcasting in Australia."--BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes list of abbreviations, bibliographic references and index -- cover illustration and design by John WindusISBN: 0043370047Donation: Donated by Mike Counihan

AUSTRALIA Summary: "This is an explosive look at the recent tumultuous years in the boardrooms and on the studio floors of Australian television. As the Nine and Seven networks traded blows, new technologies emerged and old personalities and management clung on for dear life, everyone fastened their seatbelts for a bumpy ride. From booze buses to ambulance chasing, mirrorballs to hotplates, from Sunrise to Today, Broadcast Wars gives us a fascinating insight into major media events, boardroom stoushes and fading stars' diva-like demands. Michael Bodey fearlessly analyses the personalities we love (and love to hate), the genres that came and went, and the machinations behind MasterChef, Dancing With The Stars, Underbelly, Packed To The Rafters and all the shows we love to watch and talk about. Broadcast Wars exposes the egos, the money and the powre manipulating our remote controls.

The author's incisive style produces images and powerful stories whose strength remains undiminished by the passing years. This book is not an inventory of the subjects the program has tackled, nor does it catalogue all the people who have made Four Corners the extraordinary success story it is. Robert Pullan, himself a journalist and author, went to people who had worked for Four Corners to find his material, to past and present Four Corners journalists who selected highlights of their work. 'No one program has the power by itself to widen the agenda of public debate' Pullan says, 'but it seemed to me that Four Corners had been on the cutting edge of major changes and that it would be interesting to tell the story from this perspective'.

The Act sets out the rules that are designed to prevent 'siphoning' of certain programs broadcast on national and commercial television (free-to-air television) and gives particular powers to the ABA and to the Minister in relation to the operation of these rules. Siphoning means the obtaining by a pay TV licensee of the exclusive rights (i.e. both free-to-air and pay TV rights) to broadcast an event (or events), such that those events could not be received on free-to-air television and would only be available to subscribers of the pay TV service. Without fettering the Minister's discretion to exercise his powers, this guide indicates how the ABA will approach certain situations. The ABA hopes this will provide guidance to parties wishing to negotiate rights to events that may be broadcast on Australian free-to-air or pay-tv services." - IntroductionContents: Definitions -- Development of guidelines -- Introduction -- Anti-siphoning provisions -- Role of the ABA -- Role of the minister -- Limitations of anti-siphoning list in the case of newly created events -- Other issues arising from the operation of the anti-siphoning list -- Attachements: anti-siphoning list and amendments; extracts Broadcasting Services Act 1992; Directions to the ABA; Consideration of terms and phrases contained in section 115 examples

As the author says in his Introduction , 'If a book can be said to have a purpose, this one has. It is to tell as objectively as possible how, away back in the mid-forties, a handful of idealistically - minded journalists were able to convince the government of the day that in the interests of Australian democracy the national broadcasting instrumentality should have its own news service, free of newspaper, political and advertising ties'. Frank Dixon describes personalities and events in fine detail - overseas news, the Pacific war, Japanese propoganda, the ABC Journal, parliamentary reporting, etc. While maintaining a chatty atmosphere Frank Dixon always keeps in the foreground the consequences of the policies of the ABC and the various governments and how they have affected Australian life." -BOOK JACKETNotes: Includes indexISBN: 0725601566Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006Contents: -- introduction -- 1. the beginning of a way of life -- 2. independent news --- 3. the problems involved -- 4. the ever present: government and politics -- 5. supplying a news service -- 6. the work of the commission -- 7. the war continues -- 8. subject matter and Cleary -- 9. men against men -- 10. debating never ceases -- 11. the government again -- 12. changes -- 13.

A long road home : the life and times of Grisha Sklovsky / by John Nicholson North Melbourne, Vic.: Australian Scholarly Publishing, 2009.
Call No: 81SKL NICAuthor: Nicholson, John Source: ATPlace: North Melbourne, Vic.Publisher: Australian Scholarly PublishingPubDate: 2009PhysDes: xiv, 251 p, [30] p. of plates : ill. 22cmSubject: SPECIAL BROADCASTING SERVICE ; BROADCASTING. AUSTRALIA ; SKLOVKSY, GRISHA Summary: " As the Foundation Chairman of SBS Television and Radio, Grisha Sklovsky was a most persuasive international voice in Australian public life, but how he came to be so reveals a remarkable story. By the time Grisha was 24 years of age, in 1939, he had lived through the turmoil affecting Europe since the outbreak of the First World War - and had witnessed much of it. A charming, brilliant, wealthy young Russian, he had led a forcedly peripatetic life in Siberia, Berlin, and France, where he was undertaking doctoral research in the laboratory of a Nobel Prize - winning scientist. War curtailed the promise of these early years. Grisha came to Australia as a refugee from a shattered Europe, but his motivation for coming was his relationship with a young woman from Melbourne, whom he had met and fallen in love with at the very outbreak of war. From vastly different backgrounds, they had kept their emotional bond through years of seperation and uncertainty. Once in Australia, Grisha maintained his wide international circle of friends and contact with family members in Russia, including the renowned scientist Josif Sklovsky. He played an active role in the Australian Institute of International Affairs for more than 40 years. He saw the Special Broadcasting Service as a major contributor and influence in building a new society and was instrumental in overcoming the challenges faced in its establishment. A staff member of SBS, writing of Grisha, would record: 'It took a great talent to sell these ideas to a community which was trying to come to terms with its part on one of the most momentous population movements in history.'

In 1956 Australia opened its first channel and began the long road that changed our way of life. Nickl Herd has written the first comprehensive history of the powerful, popular industry that is our commercial television: a brilliantly researched, independent account of the way the networks spread across the nation and of the revolution that accompanied them - the deals, the ratings, the advertisers, the protests, the tribunals, the regulation, the programs that won and lost fortunes. In Nick Herd's hands our television emerges as a social force, one which has brought us together in the lounge room, carried us out into the streets, told our stories, transformed our sports culture and captured our history, our politics and the world around us."-- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 329-362) and indexISBN: 9780980798265Contents: -- the long road to television -- subscribers -- acknowledgments -- abbreviations --1: the coming of television -- 2: the government decides -- 3: the expansion of television services 1956-65 -- 4: the audience-commodity and program-supply markets -- 5: Reform of commercial television -- 6: structural change in the broadcast-station market -- 7: changing dynamics of program supply and audience 1974-1998 -- 8: convergence and incumbency -- 9: commerical television and the multimedia world -- appendices -- endnotes -- bibliography -- index --

His brilliant observation of the events that have occurred in his time at the ABC gives a fresh insight into many of the issues that made headlines - the Bland affair, the staff commissioner, the continuing crisis and cries of "bias" in current affairs programmes, 2JJ and access radio, FM, the department of the media, the sports coverage tangle, etc. The effects of politics and government funding on the Australian Broadcasting Commission, and the role of the ABC as an opinion maker are seen in a realistic light from the centre of affairs." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographic references and indexISBN: 0725103159Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006

AUSTRALIA ; INDIGENOUS Summary: "When the Central Australian Aboriginal Media Association (CAAMA) decided to apply for a remote television satellite licence twenty years ago, success seemed a remote possibility. Winning the licence would make Imparja the first Aboriginal-controlled commercial television station, not only in Australia but the world, with a transmission footprint larger than Western Europe. CAAMA, a very new community organisation, had a battle on its hands to satisfy remote communities, two governments, the Australian Broadcasting Tribunal, the media and to convince the wider public that it had the capacity to set up and run a television station. It was a big leap from community radio and recording the music of Aboriginal artists into the world of media moguls like Kerry Packer. The challenges continue to the present day, managing social and cultural integrity within one of the toughest commercial environments in Australia, along with the need to meet community expectations regarding language and cultural programming. This is a struggle against all odds, a story of heroes, densely populated with strong characters, both for and against Imparja's existence and its survival.Wendy Bell tells the story with all its twists, reversals and passions.

AUSTRALIA ; LEGISLATION. AUSTRALIA ; PORNOGRAPHY ON TV ; RATING FOR TV. AUSTRALIA ; SEX AND TV ; VIOLENCE ON TV. AUSTRALIA Summary: "Program classification issues have long been at the core of a heated public debate focusing on what can be shown on television. Because television is readily accessible to nearly all people of all ages, it is accepted that program standards are required to regulate what we are able to watch on television. However, any government regulation of television programs still raises sensitive issues. On the one hand, there is concern that even the most indirect intrusion into programming can destroy artistic intention and creativity. On the other hand, community opinion indicates that television and broadcasting in general, should maintain certain social objectives [...] This monograph is concerned principally with public attitudes to classification issues: namely, sex, violence and offensive language and knowledge of the classification system" - FROM INTRODUCTIONISBN: 0642168857

AUSTRALIA ; TELEVISION ; TELEVISION JOURNALISM ; TELEVISION JOURNALISM. AUSTRALIA ; FOUR CORNERS [TV] (AT, 1961-) Summary: "In the fifty years it's been on air, Four Corners has broken more stories, triggered more headlines, generated more controversy and aired more high quality investigative journalist than any other program in Australia. In today's world of 24-hour news cycles it is an anarchronism, "a television miracle" as Kerry O'Brien puts it in his introduction to this book. But when it first went to air, no-one expected it to last. Now to mark its 50th anniversary, many of the program's most renowned journalists and producers look back on their biggest stories - from war, famines, and terrorism to indigenous rights, reproductive rights, and corruption in all corners of the globe. They take readers through the dramas and intrigue involved in bringing stories which anger people in high places to air. They tell what happened away from the cameras as well as on, share moments of humour and pathos and reflect on the vital role played by the ABC's flagship news program.
