Damian Coory: The Challenges for the Right With the Political Media Landscape in Australia
Update: 2025-08-06
Description
My guest today is Damian Coory host and producer of the independent Australian centre-right weekly video news podcast "The Other Side", and also an experience journalist and public relations expert who has worked at highest levels in the corporate world in the Asia-Pacific region for over 40 years.
Today we discuss:
- What the media landscape looks like for political commentary and serious cultural discussion in Australia today
- The problem of the Australia's dominant taxpayer-funded broadcaster, the ABC, and what should be done about it
- Why, despite having arguably the most successful media proprietor in the world, domestic mainstream opinion columnists and media personalities do not have the same type of global influence as their counterparts in the UK and US
- What the media landscape will look like in 10 years and whether that will benefit the centre-right in Australia like it appears to have done elsewhere
And much much more
