The fall of Rome: media after empire

19 October 2009

As Managing Director of the ABC, Mark Scott has presided over the national broadcaster at a time of extraordinary change in the media landscape. In the A.N. Smith Lecture in Journalism, he looks at where media might be headed after the fall of the great media empires. Newspapers and commercial television are under ever-growing commercial pressures, mostly precipitated by the internet and the diffusion of audiences. Scott examines these tectonic shifts and discusses what changes to the media we may see in coming years.
