Abstract

Shirley Shackleton said that after her husband Greg was killed in Timor-Leste in October 1975, for seven weeks she became a campaigner for justice for the journalists murdered in Balibo, then after Indonesia invaded in December 1975 she became a campaigner for justice for all the East Timorese too. Shackleton saw the Australian government treatment of the killings as a litmus test of Australian East Timor policy. She continued to pressure the government for a Federal Police investigation of those responsible for the deaths, culminating with Australian politicians and diplomats being put in the dock and scrutinised under oath in a Coronial Inquiry in 2007.

讣告:雪莉·沙克尔顿:一位东帝汶英雄对真理的追寻

雪莉·沙克尔顿(Shirley Shackleton)说，1975年10月她的丈夫格雷格(Greg)在东帝汶遇害后，她为在巴里博遇害的记者争取了七个星期的正义;1975年12月印度尼西亚入侵东帝汶后，她也为所有东帝汶人争取了正义。沙克尔顿把澳大利亚政府对待屠杀事件的态度视为澳大利亚对东帝汶政策的试金石。她继续向政府施压，要求联邦警察调查那些对死亡负有责任的人，最终导致澳大利亚政客和外交官在2007年被送上被告席，并在验尸调查中宣誓接受审查。

期刊介绍： While one objective of Pacific Journalism Review is research into Pacific journalism theory and practice, the journal has also expanding its interest into new areas of research and inquiry that reflect the broader impact of contemporary media practice and education. A particular focus is on the cultural politics of the media, including the following issues: new media and social movements, indigenous cultures in the age of globalisation, the politics of tourism and development, the role of the media and the formation of national identity and the cultural influence of New Zealand as a branch of the global economy within the Pacific region. It also has a special interest in climate change, environmental and development studies in the media and communication and vernacular media in the region.
