Billion dollar Murdoch media empire succession drama
A settlement deal has been reached between Rupert Murdoch and his four oldest children, with billions of dollars changing hands. It leaves Lachlan Murdoch firmly in charge but with watered down ownership of News Corporation and Fox. Can we expect a swing to the right in the Murdoch press or is it business as usual?
How are journalists affected by what they cover and is it getting worse? A landmark new study into journalist trauma is underway looking at the impact of emotional and physical damage on journalists and the communities they cover. Historian Dr Fay Anderson is leading the project interviewing news makers and their subjects.
Do you like lukewarm catering and big LED displays? Well good news, it's upfront season for the big broadcasters in Australia, giving us a flavour of what to expect on our screens next year. Do Tim and Viv meet the competing dress codes?
Guest: Fay Anderson, Associate Professor and the Program Director of the Master of Journalism at Monash University
