The 2026 Lowy Institute Media Lecture was delivered by Dennis Richardson AC.
He discusses the legacy of international affairs reporting, arguing that fearless, curious journalism remains essential to democracy despite rapid media change.
His speech also grapples with tensions between press freedom, national security and social harmony — including a critique of media coverage of antisemitism since 7 October 2023.
Following his address, Mr Richardson joined the Lowy Institute’s Executive Director, Dr Michael Fullilove AM, for a conversation.
