“…Ewart and Dekker (2013) explained while there are similarities between talk back radio and social media platforms such as Facebook, there are also differences. Both provide direct communication with the audience but, they argue, it is ‘not identical … as talkback radio still provides a measure of access control and editing’.…”

Traditionally politicians have been dependent on political news media to get their message across to the public. The rise of social media means that politicians can bypass the Press Gallery and publish directly to their target audiences via Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms. This article argues that Prime Minister John Howard’s (1996–2007) use of talk back radio and early forays on YouTube were pivotal in the trend towards ‘disintermediation’ in Australian politics. It draws on two studies. One involving interviews with 87 key media actors from the Howard era including journalists, broadcasters, politicians and media advisers; and a second, which includes fresh interviews with contemporary press secretaries. This article examines the shift from a ‘mass media logic’ to a ‘hybrid logic’, considered from a mediatization theoretical position. We also ask important questions about the press gallery’s ongoing relevance in the digital era, when politicians preside over their own social media empires.

“…Apart from the loss of life and property, other pressures come into play. Accurate and timely information is in scarce supply and the media takes on a significant role in keeping affected communities informed and connected (Cohen, Hughes, & White, 2006;Ewart & Dekker, 2013;Keys, 1993) with political leaders taking an increasing role in fronting the media (McLean & Ewart, 2015). As noted by Liu (2007, p. 41), "whether presidents emerge as heroes or villains largely depends on two factors: (a) how they respond to crises and (b) the venues they use to communicate with the public about crises."…”

Despite the pressure on politicians to show leadership in times of disaster, many struggle with the extreme leadership challenges imposed by a calamity that is quickly consuming life and property. Drawing on data from elite interviews with senior personnel from disaster agencies in eight countries, we find that emergency managers want to engage with political actors well before a disaster strikes. This is critical to educate the political actor about disaster management, leadership, and communication, and to generate support for resources and funding. The challenge is to place disasters on the agenda of political actors ahead of all-consuming, day-to-day issues.
