About this episode
Ten years ago, Schwartz Media launched its weekly independent newspaper, The Saturday Paper.
On page three of its first edition was a story about a woman who had just become a household name: Rosie Batty.
Thrust into the spotlight while grieving the murder of her son Luke at the hands of his father, Rosie Batty used the worst moment of her life to put domestic violence on the national agenda.
Today, associate editor of The Saturday Paper, Martin McKenzie-Murray, on what he learnt about grief after following Rosie Batty’s story for a decade.
