The Drum

As the year comes to a close, The Drum looks back at the stories and issues that united and divided us. From terrorism and national security, to domestic violence, body shaming, sport and our love-hate (or is that hate-hate?) relationship with the media and politics.

Unions vow to fight after PM says industrial relations high on election agenda 

When all other issues are a sideshow the truth reveals itself. Deconstructing Unions is and always has been the political reality.

 Malcolm Turnbull paved the way for a double dissolution election on workplace reforms unless both houses of Parliament passed legislation aimed at curbing the influence of unions by establishing the Australian Building and Construction Commission and a new national regulator for registered organisations.

The 2015 Fox Primary: It's Trump, And Then Everyone Else 

Murdoch's Influence

284

From May 1 to December 15, leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump lapped the rest of the field in interview airtime on Fox News. Trump's 22 hours and 46 minutes of airtime was more than twice as much as any other candidate during the period studied. Trump racked up more airtime on the network than Sen. Ted Cruz, former Gov. Jeb Bush, and Sen. Marco Rubio combined.
Interviews with the Republican field have been a near-constant fixture of Fox News' programming during the second half of 2015, and The Fox Primary is showing no signs of slowing down as we approach 2016 and the first primaries.
So far this cycle, the network has already surpassed coverage of the 2012 campaign season: During the period studied, Fox News aired more than 117 hours worth of interviews with Republican candidates. Over a similar time frame (June 1 to January 22, 2012), Fox devoted 77 hours and 24 minutes to interviews of the then-candidates. (The disparity is even more striking considering the 2012 report included appearances on Fox News' sister network, Fox Business.)
Lagging well behind Trump were New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, former Arkansas Governor and former Fox News host Mike Huckabee, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina, who round out the top five. Each spent less than 10 hours on Fox over the same time period.

 

 

David Marr’s review of 2015: terror fears and shark scares, but Australia carried on regardless

  Nothing defined the year in Australia as strongly as the response to terrorism, and climate change made its presence felt. Yet when it came to refugees or progressive reform, it remained as indifferent as ever

 

The ABC's digital service is a winner with the public

 Peter Costello may question why the ABC offers services across digital platforms, but the vast majority of Australians are thankful they have a strong, robust, independent public broadcaster delivering in new ways.
