The News, Adelaide, to editor-in-chief of
The Sydney Morning Herald. He spent 31 years building with immense energy a distinguished career in daily journalism. For the last eight of those years, under various titles, he carried chief responsibility for the
Heraldâs staffing and journalism in a period of social and political ferment.
He relished leadership in what he called âthe very serious business of newspaperingâ. But he was to write later that for much of the time he chafed under proprietorial and managerial restraints as he tried to edge the paper away from narrow conservatism towards more liberal ways.
