Cancelling 'Cancel Culture': The rise and fall of the ‘wokerati’

Sky News host Rowan Dean presents Cancelling ‘Cancel Culture’ examining whether the cancel culture phenomenon is threatening freedom of speech in Australia and around the world. The thought-provoking special explores the rise of ‘cancel culture’ and the impact it is having on people’s lives and livelihoods. Rowan speaks to academics authors, entertainers and political commentators including Warren Mundine, Jacinta Price, Laurence Fox, Lauren Southern, Peter Ridd and Douglas Murray during his investigation. Author Douglas Murray says in the fight against cancel culture, mainstream majority views can’t be silenced so people feel they can voice them other than at the ballot box where they give the “wokerati a nasty surprise”. Cancel culture is not justice it is a “lynch mob” which doesn’t adhere to the standards of innocent until proven guilty, according to political activist Lauren Southern. Image: Getty
