This episode of Media Watch examines how a familiar face to Fox News viewers has been named White House Press Secretary, walking a well-worn path back and forth between the conservative outlet and the Trump administration. Plus, a superannuation expert fails to declare her financial links to the industry in her regular media outings. And News Corp’s regular ‘On this day’ history column has a habit of getting creative with the facts. Media Watch is the ABC's long-running media accountability program, holding journalists, editors and media organisations, including the ABC, to account. Since 1989, Media Watch has exposed conflicts of interest, factual errors, plagiarism and manipulation across the Australian and international media landscape.
