WordFest 2026 concludes with the Sir John Monash Lecture, featuring acclaimed author, journalist and publisher Eric Beecher. Drawing on his influential book The Men Who Killed the News, Beecher will examine how power, ownership and commercial pressure have reshaped journalism and weakened public trust. With clarity and urgency, he will further explore what is lost when independent media fails, and why robust journalism remains essential to democratic life. Incisive and thought‑provoking, this landmark lecture invites deep reflection on civic responsibility and the future of public discourse.
