The public mud-slinging and political gesturing that has kept it in the news have been accompanied by the simmering background of internal wars that affect the media monolith. Professor Richard Harding has been a man inside the ABC - among the men with the hottest seats and the best views of the bloody circus, the Commissioners. 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 ; NATIONAL CONTENT. AUSTRALIA ; QUOTA. AUSTRALIA Summary: This monograph looks at the operation of the points system for Australian television content. The problem of protecting local programming is discussed in the light of international trends towards more stringent regulations to protect local programming industries, and as an historical development of demands for protection for the local programming industry. --
The author of the monograph concludes that the points sytem policy, which is still being implemented by the Australian Broadcasting Tribunal, is a failure. The monograph looks at the process whereby the points system was selected and designed, and examines in detail the way in which it was implemented by the Australian Broadcasting Control Board. The writer claims that the failure, though partly arising from anomalies in the delection procedures, was mainly attributable to faults in the design and implementation of the system. -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Bibliography: p.61-64ISBN: 0909800154Contents: Introduction -- The international context -- The Australian background -- The adoption of a points system -- Policy and purposes -- The selection and design of the system -- The announcement and implementation of the policy -- Policy effects and political aftermath -- Conclusions - Appendices -- Notes -- Bibliography
