#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Assembling the perspectives of some of Australia’s most prominent media figures, Pandemedia considers the way COVID transformed the news making industry, possibly forever. Examining decentralised communication, social media and the responsibility of journalists to write the first draft of history, our panellists try to make sense of the seismic events dominating recent years and ask what lessons the media has learned—and what it means for you.
