It gives me great pleasure to once again welcome ANZCA to the pages of Global Media Journal – Australia Edition.  As with our last engagement with ANZCA papers in 2015 (Swinburne), we welcome the interest from the conveners of the 2016 ANZCA conference from the University of Newcastle to publish a selection of the papers. In now our tenth year of publication, we continue to make a significant contribution to communication and media studies in Australia. Many thanks to the guest editors, Dr Janet Fulton and Associate Professor Phillip McIntyre of Newcastle University for their efficient and diligent work in selecting and reviewing the papers. Thanks also to their referees who have assisted in the maintenance of high standards of scholarship for the journal. In addition to the ANZCA papers, we feature an essay in this issue by one of our editors, Dr Antonio Castillo. Dr Castillo’s contribution is on the Latin American Investigative Journalism Award that annually honours the best investigative stories produced in the region. We have also included the regular Media Monitors column from Dr Tim Dwyer and a number of book reviews to round out the issue.

Our next issue on the theme of “Narrative Resistance” is underway. The issue is a mix of Australian and European scholarship involving collaborators from a conference on the ethics of storytelling at the University of Turku, Finland. As usual, I acknowledge the great efforts of the GMJ/AU editorial team for their production work on this issue especially Myra Gurney, Antonio Castillo Roman Goik and Rachel Morley.
