In this session, our panel from the Discipline of Media and Communications will share funny and thought-provoking stories of times they’ve been in the midst of a media maelstrom. How do you cope with the sudden sound and fury? What do you do if your critics have a point? And what does it mean for free speech and public discourse?

Featuring
Professor Catharine Lumby
Associate Professor Joanne Gray B.Com (Hons. I Political Economy), MIL (Sydney)
Dr Dominic Knight (BA '99 LLB '01 DArts '14)
Josh Szeps – host of ‘Uncomfortable Conversations’ and radio and TV presenter.
