The Australian‘s Editor-in-Chief Christopher Dore delivered the first lecture in JNI’s event series ‘The Editors’, on March 24, in Sydney.
He said journalism was on the cusp of another golden age, with audiences wanting high quality, reliable, trusted news and information more than ever.
But he said petty squabbling between journalists threatened to undermine this future, citing the criticism aimed at the national masthead, its journalists and parent company, News Corp, from others in the media industry.
He dismissed much of the criticism as the irrational obsession of journalists on social media.
