Scholarship

What follows is a selection of refereed and invited publications.  It was mainly produced while I was Director of the Australian Centre for Independent Journalism (1998-2007) at the University of Technology, Sydney and inaugural Professor of Journalism at Monash University in Melbourne (2008-2017).  Over that period the focus has been environmental reporting in the context of climate change, and Journalism as a discipline in a university research environment.  For many years I was on the Editorial Board of Pacific Journalism Review.
