Just when we needed the media more than ever before - to talk us through the current crisis and how governments are tackling it – media companies are crashing.
They’re laying off staff and closing papers, and even your ABC is not immune. Walkley Award winning journalist Jan Fran talks to Tory Shepherd about what Australia’s media landscape looks like now, and how it might look in the future.
This event is presented as part of Just A Thought, an exclusive In-Conversation series presented by The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre with Tory Shepherd. Hear captivating interviews with inspiring contemporary thinkers and change-makers who are shaping Australia’s future. Speakers will share their thoughts on addressing our most pressing issues and discuss how can have a positive impact on our society.
Social justice and keen strategy with a side serve of cheek.
