We were honoured to have investigative reporter and former Middle East correspondent Jess Hill (@jessradio) visit Griffith University to talk about foreign correspondence and the use of social media in journalism.
She was obliging enough to agree to this studio interview with me on media law, censorship and freedom of the press.
Thanks to Bevan Bache and Ashil Ranpara for their camera work, production and technical support.

It’s interesting to learn about censorship among journalism, especially first-hand from a fellow journalist. It opens your eyes tremendously to the lengths that some journalists have to go through to just publish a story.
Too true Tabbi. Thanks for your comment.
