The Annual Frank Walker Lecture was held online on 29 July 2021. Attendees heard from Milton Cockburn, former journalist and political staffer to the late Neville Wran, as he unravelled the recent media attacks of Wran's legacy. The Society thanks Mr Cockburn for his fascinating lecture which paid tribute to former NSW Attorney-General Frank Walker's legacy as part of the reforming Wran Government. Among other things, Mr Cockburn recommended that certain remedies for defamation be extended to the estates of deceased persons who have had their reputations damaged after death.
