What a week it’s been for television and the rapidly-shrinking media cycle! Attacks and apologies inside a couple of days, announcements, more failures and failures-to-launch, and some amazing speculation about who is going to run the ABC.
It’s a special two-fer episode as Rob and Molk take turns at talking through the issues and unloading on what we think are the biggest moments of the week. Lucky you listeners!
Each week the TV Blackbox team take you behind the scenes, wade through the PR spin and launch into the reality that is the Australian television business.
