Tuesday, 6 August, 2024
In this enlightening episode of In The Frame, host Brett Moffatt engages in a profound conversation with Ken Auletta, an award-winning author and senior contributor for The New Yorker. With thirteen books, including five national bestsellers, Ken Auletta has solidified his position as one of America’s leading media critics, offering in-depth explorations into the realms of media, technology, and power. His work has delved into influential figures and companies such as Rupert Murdoch, Harvey Weinstein, and Google, making this conversation a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of media and society. Throughout the episode, Ken shares invaluable insights into his writing process for journalism and books, shedding light on his challenges when completing a book. He discusses the profound impact of the digital age on news journalism and the democratisation of information, exploring the difficulties in finding universal facts in today's media landscape. Ken’s extensive experience and thoughtful reflections provide a wealth of perspectives for aspiring writers, journalists, and media enthusiasts. Listeners will also get a sneak peek into Ken’s latest book, Hollywood Ending: Harvey Weinstein and the Culture of Silence, published by Penguin Press. This biography, a significant addition to Auletta's body of work, delves into Weinstein's dual nature as a brilliant movie producer and a monstrous figure, examining how a culture of silence allowed his abusive behaviour to persist. Ken discusses the various voices featured in the book, including Weinstein's brother Bob and childhood friends, and how Weinstein’s uncontrollable impulses ultimately led to his downfall.
