AWW23: Moguls and the Media - Sarah Hanson-Young & Paddy Manning
Chair: Jim Middleton
\nThe TV series\xa0Succession\xa0has been appointment viewing and frequent comparisons have been drawn between the fictional Roy media empire and the real Murdoch family. Paddy Manning\u2019s new book,\xa0The Successor: The High-Stakes Life of Lachlan Murdoch, could well provide background material for a future season in which the ageing, tyrannical mogul finally \u2019pops his clogs\u2019. With Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, who chaired the 2021 senate inquiry into media diversity, Manning will take us inside the global media empire that Lachlan Murdoch is likely to inherit.
\nEvent details: Sat 04 Mar, 12:00pm on the West Stage
