Show Notes

Preparations for the four-month trial of former broadcaster Alan Jones, who’s fighting indecent assault charges, have  been rocked by a complaint from one of the alleged victims about phone calls from someone purporting to be a journalist from The Sydney Morning Herald. The tabloid’s owner Nine Entertainment denies it was them.  Today, media Diary editor Steve Jackson joins us to talk about the Jones trial, a very messy dispute between two top legal figures and why terrorism investigators are interested in internal communications at the ABC and SBS.
