The Edit: with Caro Meldrum-Hanna

Caro Meldrum-Hanna is one of Australia’s most successful and highly-decorated investigative journalists. The reigning Graham Perkin Australian Journalist of the Year, her revelations about live-baiting brought the greyhound racing industry to its knees. Her expose on the brutal treatment of children in detention in the Northern Territory triggered a Royal Commission. She has won four Walkley awards including the Gold Walkley.

At this special year-end edition of The Edit Caro joined us for an exclusive off-the-record briefing on how she cracked some of the biggest scandals of recent years – and gave tips for handling stories.
