Political Journalists
Posted: Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:05 pm
Following on from the Misc Debris thread, this is started to list favourite and non-favourite journalists.
My preferred journalists:
1 Laura Tingle - Financial Review. IMO, comfortably the best political journo ATM.
2 George Megalogonis - The Australian. Always sensible, fair and a good writer, well researched.
3 Mark Kenny - Sunday Mail. A voice of fairness in a down-market Liberal rag.
I have several others, for later.
TV:
1 Paul Bongiorno - Channel 10. Only on for a few minutes, but fair.
2 Steve Cannane - ABC. Actually researches and knows what he's talking about.
3 Laurie Oakes - Not always, but good at times.
Bloggers:
1 Greg Jericho - Ex Grog's Gamut, now ABC.net
The balance to follow and I've left out several favourites.
Also to follow, my list of no-hopers (which will probably coincide with Jimmy's 'best' list
