For decades, Rupert Murdoch built one of the world's most powerful media empires, shaping news coverage, political debate and elections across several countries. But what was it like to work inside that machine? Journalist turned academic Andrew Dodd has co-written Getting Murdoched.
Nevena and Macca are joined live on air by Professor Andrew Dodd Professor of Journalism, Uni Melb; On Derryn Hinch’s Passing. Few Australian media figures have been as divisive—or as influential—as Derryn Hinch. A broadcaster, newspaper columnist, television host, campaigner and senator, Hinch built a career on exposing injustice, challenging authority and often testing the limits of journalism itself. Following his recent passing, Professor Andrew Dodd from the University of Melbourne joins us to reflect on Hinch’s complicated legacy and what it tells us about Australian media today. Derryn Hinch was one of Australia's most recognisable media personalities, earning the nickname ;the Human Headline; through decades in radio, television and print journalism. Throughout his career, Hinch became known for an unapologetically campaigning style of journalism. He championed victims of crime, pushed for tougher laws around child sex offenders, challenged suppression orders and repeatedly argued that the public’s right to know should outweigh legal restrictions. His career was also marked by controversy. He was imprisoned for contempt of court after breaching suppression orders, dismissed from broadcasting roles on multiple occasions and criticised for blurring the line between reporting, opinion and activism. In 2016, Hinch entered federal politics, serving as a Senator for Victoria and continuing many of the campaigns that had defined his media career. In his The Conversation article, Professor Andrew Dodd argues that Hinch represented a distinctive model of journalism—one fuelled less by strict notions of objectivity than by a deeply personal sense of justice. Dodd suggests Hinch's principles were "imperfect" because they often conflicted with established legal and journalistic norms, yet they were driven by a genuine belief that journalism should challenge power and advocate for those who lacked a voice. https://theconversation.com/derryn-hinch-was-a-bombastic-journalist-fuelled-by-imperfect-principles-and-righteous-outrage-287293 Andrew has been a radio, TV, print and on-line journalist. He’s worked with ABC television and was a media and business writer with The Australian. He was also a broadcaster with community radio, Radio Netherlands and ABC Radio National, where he presented many of the network’s programs and founded the Media Report. He has written for several other publications and was a media writer for crikey.com.au. He was the journalism program director at Swinburne University and is now the Director of the Melbourne Public Humanities Initiative at the University of Melbourne. He is the founding editor of The Junction (https://junctionjournalism.com).

Andrew Dodd aka Doddy is the podcast! Doddy is a man who has lived through every era of mountain bike media, from the golden age of print magazines at MBUK to YouTube with Global Mountain Bike Network and now working inside the industry with Mondraker. We dive deep into the evolution of mountain biking, how bike media really works behind the scenes, and why the modern bike industry might be overcomplicating things. Doddy shares untold stories from his time testing thousands of bikes, what it was like reviewing products when magazines could make or break brands, and how the rise of YouTube, TikTok and influencers has completely changed the landscape. We also get into why modern bikes might be 'too much', the truth about bike reviews (then vs now), the explosion of content and how it affects riders, e-bikes, gravel bikes and industry trends, burnout from working in bike media, what actually makes mountain biking fun and much more. This is one of the most insightful conversations we've had about the bike industry — from someone who's seen it all, we hope you enjoy it!

After a scathing ruling from a Nevada probate commissioner, Rupert Murdoch and his eldest son Lachlan's attempt to amend a family trust may have backfired spectacularly, with the commissioner concluding the two acted in “bad faith”. Rupert was attempting to give permanent control of his conservative media empire, comprising Fox and News Corp, to his designated successor Lachlan after Rupert dies. The initial attempt to amend the trust was also kept secret from Lachlan's three eldest siblings – Prudence, Elisabeth and James – the other beneficiaries with equal voting rights on the trust. The ruling has deepened the divide within the family, and thrown the future of the Murdoch empire into question. Today, director of the Centre for Advancing Journalism at the University of Melbourne, Andrew Dodd on the ruling, the fallout and the next chapter in the Murdoch succession saga. Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Director of the Centre for Advancing Journalism at the University of Melbourne, Andrew Dodd.
