ABSTRACT
Jonathan Holmes will shortly be leaving the chair at Media Watch, which he has occupied for longer than any presenter since Stuart Littlemore (1989-1997). In this lecture, he argues that the program is no longer, as it used to be, the only effective check on the misdeeds of the Australian media. In the face of ferocious media opposition, the Gillard government seems to have backed away from trying to impose tougher regulation on the print and online media. Meanwhile, however, social media and the blogosphere are providing increasingly powerful means through which consumers can hold Australia's mainstream media to account.
