Women in Media FNQ: TRUMPED! Surviving Trump’s America

17 October 2026

2-4 Smith St, Cairns North QLD 4870, Australia

She was there when Trump came to power - and she got TRUMPED!

Join us for a fascinating and lively conversation with award-winning Australian journalist Ginny Stein, former managing editor for South East Asia at the Washington headquarters of Radio Free Asia.

A long time foreign correspondent for ABC and SBS, she has reported from more than 30 countries. And for five years she was based in Vanuatu. She’s now Professor of Journalism at University of Technology Sydney (UTS).

Ginny takes us behind the headlines to share what it was really like reporting from America during the Trump era - navigating politics, power, press freedom and survival in one of the world’s most challenging media environments.

Expect an engaging, revealing and entertaining conversation with one of Australia’s experienced journalists, with plenty of stories you won’t hear in the headlines.
