Heres another thing I dont understand about the Finkelstein inquiry, which recommends more government control on a media it clearly disdains:

MEDIA executives and journalists are being offered the chance to attend a $500-a-head workshop.

The workshop will be on the recommendations of the federal governments Finkelstein media inquiry, despite no indication it will lead to a new regulatory regime.

And the co-commissioner of the $1.4 million inquiry, academic Matthew Ricketson, will deliver the keynote address at the event, despite not commenting so far on the taxpayer-funded inquiry.

I have known Matthew for years. His highest achievement is the profession that his inquiry now seeks to have controlled was media and communications editor for The Age from 2006 to 2009.

To be perfectly frank, I did not consider him to be very good in that job. He seemed to break few stories, or offer any penetrating observations. His writing is not sparkling. He was well outshone by The Australians Amanda Meade, for one, and I do not think I am being unfair. I recently spoke to a senior Age executive who endorsed my overall opinion.

So heres my astonishment: how does a man who rose to no great heights in the media wind up as the presiding expert in an inquiry to determine how much freedom to give it?

MANILA, Philippines - The power of social media, including Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, is propelling Korean Wave, or hallyu, to new heights and helping the spread of its popularity to North America and other regions.

These social networking sites make it easier for K-pop bands to reach a wider audience in the West, and those fans are turning to the same social networking tools to proclaim their devotion, according to a New York Times article titled Bringing K-pop to the West published March 4.

The NY Times article said the internet is bringing K-pop singers closer to their fans outside Asia.

When bands like 2NE1, Super Junior and SHINee hold concerts in Europe and the United States, tickets sell out within minutes, and fans have used Facebook and Twitter to organize flash mobs demanding more shows, as they did in Paris in May, according to the article.

Indeed, K-pop singers nowadays have their own official Facebook pages, YouTube channels and Twitter accounts where they announce upcoming albums, concerts, appearances and TV shows.

On the other hand, loyal fans translate songs, Korean TV shows where their idols appear on, Korean news articles and posts by the singers on Twitter or me2day into different languages.

The NY Times article said, K-pop bands style is a fusion of synthesized music, video art, fashionable outfits and teasing sexuality mixed with doe-eyed innocence.

It said the Korean music industry focused in digital content and with the increasing influence of social networking sites, K-pop bands began to gain more traction in the West.
