The media and the election
In this keynote address for the New News conference at the Melbourne Writers Festival, ABC cheif Mark Scott gives his take on the media\u27s coverage of the recent federal election. Through the mess and noise, Scott discerns the important themes and contributions and structural changes in the media that made the campaign so intriguing from a media perspective. He also goes on to suggest ways that the media might provide better coverage, especially of those important public issues ignored due to major party consensus on them.
New News was presented by the Foundation of Public Interest Journalism, Swinburne Institute for Social Research.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
The fall of Rome: media after empire
As Managing Director of the ABC, Mark Scott has presided over the national broadcaster at a time of extraordinary change in the media landscape. In the A.N. Smith Lecture in Journalism, he looks at where media might be headed after the fall of the great media empires. Newspapers and commercial television are under ever-growing commercial pressures, mostly precipitated by the internet and the diffusion of audiences. Scott examines these tectonic shifts and discusses what changes to the media we may see in coming years.

The fall of Rome: Media after empire
Tonight I want to talk about media empires. They have been giants in our lives. And in these early days of a new millennium, shockwaves are being felt all around them. They now seem less like agents of their destinies than helpless witnesses to the unravelling of all they once stood for.
Mark Scott, Managing Director of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, gives his view of the future of journalism and media empires in this A.N. Smith Memorial Lecture in Journalism 2009, at the University of Melbourne
The quest for truth: quality journalism and a 21st Century ABC
Mark Scott makes some observations about the 2010 Australian federal election campaign and how it was handled by the fourth estate and then make some tentative suggestions about implications for the media and the nature of news coverage.
Summary
The 2010 election campaign was the journalistic gift that just keeps on giving. I had intended to draft these remarks once the result was known. This election has changed how we think of „politics as "usual‟ in this country. It has also triggered significant debate about the practice of political reporting.And I can‟t let the opportunity of this speech go by without wading into these murky waters
 
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
