Monash Law School's 2012 Great Law Week Debate

'Political Bias in the Media Should be Banned'

Witness a team of prominent Monash Law Alumni battle it out with current Monash Law Students, over this highly controversial topic at the annual Great Law Week Debate.

Previous president of the Monash Association of Debaters and 2012 World Universities Debating Championship winner Kiran Iyer (Law/Arts) will lead the student team to argue “Political bias in the media should be banned”, supported by Madeline Schultz (Law/Science) who was a semi-finalist in the 2012 World Universities Debating Championships and Duncan Wallace (Law/Arts) former winner of the Monash Junior Moot and a semi-finalist of the Commonwealth AAT Moot.

Proving this point won’t be easy against the Monash Law Alumni team consisting of Fiona Prowse (BA, LLB 2012) who won the 2011 World Universities Debating Championship, Channel 7 investigative reporter who specialises in freedom of information Louise Milligan (BA (Hons) 1999, LLB 1999) and Justin Quill (BA 1998, LLB 1998) director of Kelly Hazell Quill Lawyers and one of Australia’s most experienced media law practitioners.

Overseeing the Great Law Week Debate as moderator is Monash Law graduate Will Fowles (BCom/LLB 2004), who is the Principal of Piper Capital, a boutique hospitality and property investment company. Will is also a member of the MCC Committee.
