| Date | Episode | Description | Length | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5/25/12 | The Back Pages and Supplements (audio only) | Are the back pages and supplements real journalism, or just a bit of colour? Sports, IT, culture, lifestyle and entertainment might be thought of as the soft-end of journalism, but they make up an enormous part of the news media.

| 5/17/12 | Tabloids and Tabloidisation (audio only) | Broadsheet good, Tabloid bad. That's one way of characterising the distinction between so-called 'quality' media and the tabloids. Another view has it that broadsheets and so-called quality news outlets are elitist and out of touch with people's everyday concerns.

| 5/10/12 | The Broken Business Model (audio only) | How the business model of newspapers, magazines and increasingly, the book publishing industries is changing, and what the dynamics of the changing business model means for journalism.

| 5/7/12 | Journalism: Profession vs Practice (audio only) | Social media has changed our social reality — including journalism. Social media tools (including blogs, wikis, social networks and video sharing services) have undeniably blurred the boundaries between journalism as a practice and journalism as a profession.

| 4/27/12 | Sex, Lies and Videotape (audio only) | A core function of the press is to reflect a society back to itself. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the case of the relations of the sexes. Indeed, in the west, at least, the press has played a key role in facilitating relations of equality — both directly as an employer of women and also in speaking up for the rights of women. Perhaps. But not always. This seminar examines how the press and journalists have helped to constitute and shape gender relations.

| 4/4/12 | Ownership and Control (audio only) | What is the pattern of newspaper ownership in Australia? Does it matter who owns the press or how many people own it - particularly given the rise of new technologies? Copyright 2012 Christopher Scanlon / La Trobe University, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions. | — | ||||||
| 3/29/12 | New Values: Freedom, Truth, and Objectivity (audio only) | What are the values of the fourth estate? Chief among them are truth, objectivity and freedom. All of these values are controversial. Copyright 2012 Christopher Scanlon / La Trobe University, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions. | — | ||||||
| 3/22/12 | The Press and Society (audio only) | The press exists to serve a society - or at least different communities within a society. Successful media outlets respond to, and met the needs of readers, right? The reality is more complex. Copyright 2012 Christopher Scanlon / La Trobe University, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions. | — | ||||||
| 3/15/12 | A (Very) Brief History of the Press (audio only) | How did we get here? In this seminar, we take a step backwards to examine the rise of the press within the larger context of the development of the public sphere, civil society and the transition from monarchical rule to parliament. We also look at the development of the press in Australia, with early examples of Australian newspapers. Copyright 2012 Christopher Scanlon / La Trobe University, all rights reserved.

| 3/8/12 | Propaganda, the Rise of Public Relations, and 'Churnalism' (audio only) | To kick off, we're going to look at the state of the press, including the prevalence of PR, propaganda and churnalism. Propaganda is now a dirty word; a by-word for systematic lying and the opposite of truth. But at least one advocate of propaganda in the early 20th Century regarded propaganda as a tool of social progress. Edward L Bernays, the father of public relations, (and, incidentally, a nephew of the psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud) argued that propaganda was a powerful tool for social improvement and was consistent with the truth. Modern public relations practitioners make similar claims. How valid are such claims? What are the consequences for the public sphere with the rise of PR? Is it wrong for organisations to use the services of PR professionals? Is the traditional disdain that journalists often have for PR justified?

The second part will give you an overview of some of the basic ideas of what will be explored in the subject, including what is meant by 'the press', 'news', notions of the 'public sphere' and the current state of the press in Australia and the world.
