About

I worked as a journalist and media manager for twelve years. In 1996 I accepted a position as a journalism lecturer and am now an Associate Professor. I am the co-author of a book on professional writing and have published journal articles and conference papers. In 2010 a book I co-edited on Islam and the Australian News Media was published by Melbourne University Press. I am currently working on the following projects: Talkback radio in Australia; Representation of terrorism in Australian media; organisational cultural change in Australian newsrooms. My book Haneef: A Question of Character about the Dr Mohamed Haneef case was published by Halstead Press in October 2009.
In 2011 I accepted an invitation to be on the editorial board of Anthem's Global Media and Communication Studies series. I am also an Associate Editor of Media International Australia.
