No, it’s about a media watch clip that’s been altered
2021 final is next Monday night.
Did Media Bites finish last week? No new episode on iView or social media suggests so.
I enjoy both the main and online edition. Bring on 2022 with the federal and Victoria state elections.
I for one look forward to NewsCorps totally unbiased and balanced coverage.
Returns Mondays at 9.15pm form 7 February.
Everybody loves it until they’re on it!
Paul Barry returns for another series of Media Watch - Australia’s leading forum for media analysis and critique.Since 1989 the program has been exposing conflicts of interest, journalistic deceit, misrepresentation, manipulation and plagiarism.
Media Watch turns the spotlight onto those who ‘make the news’: the reporters, the online editors, producers, camera operators and photographers. We also keep an eye on those who try to manipulate the media: the PR consultants, media agencies, spin-doctors, lobbyists and social influencers.
And Paul Barry will be in his 9th consecutive year as Presenter of MW, same as Stuart Littlemore.
He’s the longest-serving host overall right? Given his run in 2000 and his brief guest host stint in 2010?
Yes he would be the longest serving host of media watch.
Media Bites back on Thursday
A couple of real clangers in this episode - 10 News plus Hot Seat plus a caption error on Indian TV.
I’m surprised Media Watch didn’t mention the UAP purchasing one hour blocks on commercial TV this week on last night’s show.
A “massive defeat for News Corp”
At the end of tonight’s program Paul announced that Janine Perrett with be hosting for the next 3 weeks.
