About this listen
When whispers from Griffith reached the nation’s capital, a handful of journalists thought they were chasing a story about corruption. What they uncovered was something far more dangerous — a ledger that could bring down men in power. But every attempt to print the truth met a sudden silence: editors leaned on, stories buried, presses mysteriously halted.
The Paper Crown follows the reporters who refused to look away — those who risked careers, reputations, and safety to expose a network of influence stretching from the newsroom to Parliament. As the headlines closed in, they discovered that power doesn’t always wear a crown of gold. Sometimes, it’s made of paper — fragile, flammable, and easily torn apart.
