	Description:		It's not every day the media gets raided by the AFP, but it has happened twice in 24 hours this week. First it was NewsCorp and then the ABC - both times over national security stories. So is it possible that the federal police are going after the media, on behalf of the Government? In today's episode we ask exactly how independent the AFP is, what kind of influence the Government has there, and how hard it can be to say no to the people who pay your wage.
