Getting Murdoched explores the power the Murdoch Empire exercises over those who disagree; it is the first-ever global assessment of News Corp's bullying tactics.

For decades, Rupert Murdoch's global media empire has shaped political landscapes, influenced elections, and fuelled public opinion. But behind the headlines lies a darker story -- of targeted campaigns, smear tactics, and relentless attacks on those who don't fit the Murdoch mold. From LGBTQI communities and women's rights advocates to progressive politicians, human rights defenders, and even conservatives deemed 'not right enough', Getting Murdoched: How Murdoch's Media Wields Power and Punishmentexposes how dissent is silenced and reputations destroyed. Drawing on insider accounts, investigative research, and case studies spanning the the US, the UK and Australia, this book reveals how News Corp turns disagreement into a declaration of war.

Powerful, unsettling, and meticulously documented, it's both a warning and a call to defend truth in an age of weaponized media. Including interviews and international examples, Getting Murdoched also analyses the damaging effect that this has on democracy in the US, the UK and Australia.
