| Summary |
Have we lost faith in the lifeblood of democracy, public debate? Is there too little idealism, truth and honour in the process? We look at the context and communication of political decision-making and what's at stake in the era of "spin" - transparency, presumed to be vital for citizens to exercise their rights in a healthy democracy. Guest Panellists include Don Watson, Gerard Henderson, Eric Beecher and Carmen Lawrence |
