For decades, Rupert Murdoch's global media empire has shaped political landscapes, influenced elections and fuelled public opinion. But behind the headlines lies a darker story – of targeted campaigns, smear tactics and relentless attacks on those who don't fit the Murdoch mould. From LGBTQI communities and women's rights advocates to progressive politicians, human rights defenders and even conservatives deemed 'not right enough', Getting Murdoched: How Murdoch's Media Wields Power and Punishment exposes how dissent is silenced and reputations destroyed. Drawing on insider accounts, investigative research and case studies spanning Australia, the UK and the US, this audiobook reveals how News Corp turns disagreement into a declaration of war.

Powerful, unsettling and meticulously documented, Getting Murdoched is both a warning and a call to defend truth in an age of weaponised media. Including interviews and international examples, Getting Murdoched also analyses the damaging effect that this has on democracy in the US, the UK and Australia.
