Each new form of communications which comes along requires different skills and provides new opportunities. I suggest it would be good to have our politicians spend more time face to face with their constituents and use the tech for formal parliamentary sessions.
I am no Olivier, but do I train computer project students and start-up teams to work online. This is a different skill to performing in front of a live audience, for or a media reporter, or on a live TV broadcast.
Prime-time ABC news programs alone have an audience of around half to three-quarters of a million viewers ...
Is it good for national decision making to have our politicians spend hours in the chamber just to get a few seconds on the evening news?
