National Fictions: Literature, film and the construction of Australian narrative
National Fictions is a study of Australian literature and film. It is also a study of Australian culture, viewing the novels and films as products of a specific culture - as narratives with similar structures, functions, forms and meanings.

Netflix and the Reconfiguration of the Australian Television Market
Australian television has always been dominated by free-to-air television. Once protected from extranational competition by its geography and by a regulatory structure which controlled the conditions for entry, the dominance of the commercial channels, in particular, has until now been relatively unaffected by the introduction of pay television and local subscription or streaming services. The arrival of Netflix in 2015, however, was a game-chang…

Re-Inventing the Media
Re-Inventing the Media provides a highly original re-thinking of media studies for the contemporary post-broadcast, post-analogue, and post-mass media era. While media and cultural studies has made much of the changes to the media landscape that have come from digital technologies, these constitute only part of the transformations that have taken place in what amounts of a reinvention of the media over the last two decades. Graeme Turner takes on…
Television As Digital Media
Not the Apocalypse: Television Futures in the Digital Age
This article begins by challenging what we describe as a developing analytical orthodoxy around the development of digital television, an orthodoxy which produces a story about the end of television. We argue that the social practice of television is far from over, and that it is changing in ways which reflect continuities with past practices as well as the effects of emerging economic, technological and cultural formations of production and use.…
Television Studies After TV: Understanding Television in the Post- Broadcast Era

Globalizing media industries, deregulatory policy regimes, the multiplication, convergence and trade in media formats, the emergence of new content production industries outside the US/UK umbrella, and the fragmentation of media audiences are all changing the nature of television today: i…

Post-Journalism: News and Current Affairs Programming from the Late '80s to the Present
This paper discusses some major generic and discursive shifts in Australian television news and current affairs programming over the last decade. Developing a history of some aspects of these shifts, the paper argues that we are witnessing a decline in the construction of news and current affairs as a public service, and a parallel rise in the commodification of these programming genres within the battle for ratings
