The Honour and the Cost of Court Reporting:

From the Age to AW to the ABC, from the Gangland Wars to Black Saturday .. In this Saturday special of “Truth Lies and Media” Nicole Chvastek and the award winning court reporter Phil Johnson take us behind the scenes of some of Australia’s most unforgettable news stories. 

He saw a notorious hitman in court just hours before he was killed and was struck like lightning with a palpable sense of foreboding. He spent years in court as a reporter for 3AW watching Australia’s underworld criminals fight the long arm of the law but also seeing the victims in their grief, anger and dignity.
