Recorded14th October 2022
In the first episode of Hacks and Flaks, host Petrie Hosken explores the art of the political interview.
How does a politician prepare for a potential roasting on live TV? What are the signs that an interviewer thinks they're the star? And has the public become jaded with the traditional mauling of politicians by TV journalists?
To Help Petrie dissect the delicate interplay between the public's right to know and the dark art of political and corporate spin are regular panellists and former Prime Ministerial advisors Giles Kenningham and Andrew MacDougall.
From their careers as flaks, Andrew and Giles share insights on how they deal with the fallout of a bad interview, how deals are struck with journalists to ensure a positive outcome for both parties, and whether the art of political interview can survive in a world driven by social media.
