Funded Activity Summary

Spinning out of control: the management of news by two Australian governments, 2004-2010. This project will examine the use of news management or 'spin' by Australian governments. Is it a legitimate tool of government in the face of a hyper-adversarial news media or a technique which undermines democracy? It will examine 'spin' in connection with policies on climate change, economic policy, indigenous policy and asylum seekers policy.
