Carrying the trauma of reporting on death, destruction and abuse. Being pursued through the courts to reveal a confidential source. Going up against the biggest institutions in the country to reveal the truth. Journalists work relentlessly to give the most vulnerable people in society a voice, but at what price? The Walkley Foundation is running a national public awareness campaign, developed in partnership with Naked Communications, across TV, print, online and outdoor advertising. The campaign is themed “What Price Would You Pay?” and asks Australians to re-evaluate the price they’d pay for quality journalism that impacts everyday lives. It highlights the price journalists pay, from legal pressure to death threats, and features award-winning journalists. In this episode, hear from award-winning journalists about what it takes to make great journalism and why this work matters. Please note, this discussion covers topics that may be disturbing for some listeners, including sexual assault. Speakers: Sarah Dingle, reporter and presenter, Audio Current Affairs, ABC Nina Funnell, freelance journalist John Lyons, Walkley Award-winning head of Investigative and In-depth Journalism, ABC Moderator: Clare Fletcher, communications & editorial manager, the Walkley Foundation This talk was recorded at the State Library of New South Wales on June 20, 2019, as part of our regular Walkley Talks series there. This podcast is produced by Kevin Suarez with help from the 2SER studios in Sydney, Australia.
