Where is the media narrative linking multiple Liberal National govt scandals into a wholistic story of a rotten government doing dirty deals, wasting public funds, enriching their mates and failing the public interest test? Where is this storyline in election coverage? A thread👇🏻
My research interest is in political narratives. I’ve found once someone or a group of people is framed by the media as a particular archetype - hero, villain or victim - this characterisation is sticky and tends to influence how they are framed subsequently.
You all remember when Gillard was framed as a ‘liar’ for bringing in carbon price (it wasn’t a tax)? That villainous characterisation was impossible for Gillard to escape. It ultimately cost her the Prime Ministership and political career.
As @Aus_Scienceweek draws to a close it’s a good moment to refresh on what we learned this week about the unorthodox $443 million grant to @GBRFoundation by @TurnbullMalcolm #reefgate #auspol
On Monday morning the @FinancialReview reported that the @GBRFoundation was writing to Federal MPS belatedly promising full transparency and accountability for the grant. Accountability that should be a given, not a gift of course! #reefgate #auspol

And @australian reported that the @GBRFoundation advertised for a financial controller to help “scale up” the charity, in the wake of the grant #reefgate #auspol

Yesterday @IRUAustralia produced data showing how Australian #research funding has changed over the past decade, suggesting that the nation needs more open research funding #auspol

Australia’s research funding has increased over the past decade, the proportion of “open” funds has fallen from 26 percent in 2006 to 20 percent in 2016 according to @IRUAustralia #auspol
Under Labor total research funding to universities increased by almost 30 percent between 2007 and 2012. This included research programs like SRE, and Future Fellowships @arc_gov_au #auspol
Australia has established organisations allocating money for science and research for a reason. @arc_gov_au , @CSIROnews, @ANSTO and @aims_gov_au all have long established, rigorous, contestable, accountable peer review mechanisms. #auspol #reefgate
