Episode 16: Lest we forget our corporate sponsors




The Lucky Country show

Summary: Why does Australia spend so much time and money commemorating the wars we’ve fought in? And why do corporate sponsors’ logos at the Australian War Memorial often overshadow the people and events being commemorated? In this episode, Richard Denniss and ANU historian Frank Bongiorno discuss why we remember war the way we do, and the level of investment in commemoration.   News audio is courtesy of the ABC.
