53:43Now PlayingThis week, we sit down with legendary Australian journalist *Ray Martin* for a raw, unfiltered conversation about media, power, and whether everyday punters can actually change anything. We break down why corporate media is consolidating while trust is collapsing, how billionaires use newspapers to protect their real businesses, whether the ABC is truly independent or just responding to Murdoch's agenda, and why Ray thinks social media might be better than the old system despite AI and disinformation running rampant. We get into why politicians still suck up to Murdoch even when he attacks them, how gas companies use scare tactics to protect their rip off contracts, whether Aussies are too afraid to challenge authority despite hating tall poppies, and why Ray's advice after 60 years in journalism comes down to three words: have a go.
