After her rise to the leadership of the Australian Democrats in 2001 and her subsequent highly publicised fall, many people have wondered how this happened to self-professed political animal, Natasha Stott Despoja. In 'The Natasha Factor: Politics, Media And Betrayal', Alison Rogers provides many of the answers from her behind-the-scenes viewpoint as Stott Despoja's chief media advisor.
Rogers gives a unique perspective on the tumultuous time between November 2000 and November 2002 and reveals the story of an extraordinary woman struggling to keep a party together as it frayed at the seams, while dealing with media treatment of high-profile women in politics. This book gives a thought-provoking insight into one of Australia's most popular and intriguing politicians as well as Rogers' personal journey from journalist to political media advisor and her discovery of what it is like on the 'other side'.
