Inside 60 Minutes

John Little

60 Minutes is Australia's most successful current affairs programme, watched each week by millions. This insider's story by a producer with more than nine years direct working experience on the programme tells about the stories behind some of the biggest stories of the 1980s and 1990s. It tells of chequebook journalism, of Kerry Packer's often love-hate relationship with the show, and of the devices and dirty tricks producers use. The locations are as exotic as a 60 Minutes programme - Antarctica, Mongolia, the war zones of Beirut, Afghanistan and Eritrea Yugoslavia. Little reveals facets of the personalities of Jana Wendt, Ray Martin, Richard Carleton and the other stars that will never appear in TV Week.
