The current state of Australian journalism and media is examined through Jan Fran and Antoinette’s decades long journeys in the industry. They talk about how they broke into journalism, caught the tail end of television’s heyday, watched social media splinter audiences, and now brace for what AI is about to do to journalism and truth. They also maintain a decades-long grudge against their less-than-encouraging high school careers advisers. In the end they land somewhere cautiously optimistic: independent media is growing and audiences want better. 00:00 We hit the road 2:00 How the media ended up here 3:22 School career advisors vs journalism 6:20 What journalism once called prestige 11:00 Social media enters the newsroom 11:50 Peak newspaper money, 2008 15:09 Facebook eats the news 18:44 30 years of media ownership laws 22:40 What are news deserts 31:00 Journalism vs PR numbers 33:30 Rise of indie media 37:30 Can audiences tell news from opinion 42:00 AI crashes the newsroom.
