TV gets another media discussion show when The Media Show launched tonight on SKY News.
Hosted by Jack Houghton, this replaces Kenny on Media from tonight.
Jack Houghton said: “As 12 million Australians are plunged back into lockdown this week, it has never been more important for people to understand how the media works and how narratives are shaped. On The Media Show we will be exposing misinformation to drive a particular narrative and break down the biggest media stories of the week.
“I’m also incredibly excited that this show launches alongside the revamped SkyNews.com.au website which will feature my new media column and will be the centrepiece of our multi-media digital network which reaches millions of people every day.”
Each week on The Media Show Jack will be joined by guest panellists to shine a spotlight on topical stories in the media and investigate how some stories are positioned to sway the national conversation.
As Digital Editor at Sky News, Jack will also contribute a weekly column published every Friday on the new-look SkyNews.com.au dissecting media outlets within the Australian media landscape calling out gaffes, inaccuracies and convenient mistruths.
Jack has over a decade of experience breaking stories and reporting in newspapers around the country. Since commencing at Sky News two years ago, he has become a regular on Kenny on Media dissecting the highs and lows of news reporting and uncovering the fake news.
Fridays from July 2 at 8pm on SKY News/ Sky News on WIN.

They are going to be exposing misinformation when they are the main instigators of misinformation. What a joke.
Will be interesting to see if Sky News or any News Ltd papers face critism on this show. My gut tells me this will be an ABC / Nine papers beat up.
a.k.a. “The World According to Rupert’s Flaks”….
