Ep 20: in which I chat with digital rights lawyer Lizzie O'Shea about the News Media Bargaining Code to get a deeper understanding of the shitty and very consequentlial law the Australian Government just passed, and which Governments around the world will want to copy. 

This is the podcast companion to our latest Honest Government Ad about the News Corp Bargaining Code - watch it here.
