Seeing as we’re mostly occupied with tracking the use of Twitter in the Australian federal election campaign, this is an ultra-brief update on our Australian Twitter News Index, but it’s one which deserves…
The prime minister was right to finally agree to participate in Sky News’ ‘people’s forum’ televised debate, scheduled for this coming Wednesday. It’s good for the media campaign, and voters’ engagement…
Towards the end of Week 2 of the campaign the parties and their leaders have settled into a steady, stoic rhythm. After a spectacular first week which put the media at the forefront of the campaign, News…
Brian McNair & Stephen Harrington Audiences like spontaneity and accessibility in their politicians. They tell us this in the research we political communication scholars do, and one doesn’t need a…
“With one of the most concentrated food retail sectors in the world dominated by the supermarket duopoly, the barriers to making it easy to buy local food in Australia are significant. It is time for Australia…
If TV debates were won on the delivery of detail about policy, Kevin Rudd would have won this debate hands down. It poured out of him in long, wordy paragraphs, too fast to really take in. But if presentation…
I wake to the promise of blue skies and 26 degrees in Brisbane this late winter Saturday, and a welcome day of R&R. No rest for our election candidates, however, as they go into the first full weekend…
The announcement of News Corporation Australia chief executive Kim Williams’ resignation has been greeted with surprise. Williams spent 20 months in the job after heading up subscription network Foxtel…

Two developments this late afternoon of Day 3 - Richo, as his Sky News fans know him (Graham Richardson to the rest of us) tells David Speers on PM Agenda that no commercial media will scrutinise or challenge…
One of the most interesting issues in these first few days of the campaign is how News Corp reports the lack of detail and depth in Coalition policy. You know they want to back Tony to the hilt, but they…
CSIRO researchers are trialling an app that aims to allow elderly people to live at home safely for longer by subtly collecting data on their movements around the house. Australia’s ageing population is…
It was a long day, Day 1 of this five week marathon, most of it spent in front of my TV, flipping between Sky News and ABC 24. In the evening I wound down with some trash reality TV - Married To Medicine…
Paul Sheehan’s assertion that Col ‘Pot’ Allan has returned to Australia to put an end to the Rudd government is probably true, but misses the point. I read The Australian. I subscribe to the app. It is…
This election will be one of the most interesting and unpredictable in Australia’s history, and also one of the most important. Two very different approaches to meeting the challenges of the Asian century…
Once again, too much time has passed between ATNIX updates; I hope to return again soon at least to regular monthly posts, but for the moment, this will need to be another two-month update. Several circumstances…
