Paper Giants: Magazine Wars

Filled with humour, tragedy and outrageous tactics, Paper Giants: Magazine Wars charts the rise of cheque-book journalism in Australia from 1987-97; the age of celebrity power and Princess Di; of the paparazzi and AIDS; of media moguls and the two remarkable women who helped make them.

Nothing is going right when ... Heartbreak strikes both women. Dulcie's marriage falls apart and Patrick Bowring tragically dies in a diving accident. For Nene, the pain is overwhelming, especially since it was she who bought Pat his first scuba lessons. With Patrick's death, Nene loses the compass of her life. She falls into deep despair.
