Journalists and academics Andrew Dodd and Matthew Ricketson will be talking with former ABC Radio Melbourne presenter Jon Faine about their new book 'Getting Murdoched', an analysis of the aggressive tactics used by the Murdoch media to silence and discredit those they disagree with – and the damage that’s doing to democracy in the UK, US and Australia. 

Jon’s own experience of fighting back is one of the book’s case studies, so you can look forward to a very lively conversation.
