This entertaining and deeply revealing book offers readers riveting insights into the quirks and foibles of some of the most powerful politicians and media executives this country has produced. A controversial figure throughout his quarter of a century as a daily editor, Chris Mitchell still maintains close regular contact with past prime ministers, editors and media CEOs. Making Headlines highlights the judgements and thinking that govern daily newspaper journalism at the highest level and the battles fought to publish tough stories about the rich and the powerful, the disenfranchised and the powerless. Making Headlines is compulsory reading for citizens who care, the political class inside the beltway and beyond, and wannabe journalists in search of a job. 606 $aAustralian newspapers$xHeadlines 606 $aNewspaper publishing$zAustralia 606 $aJournalism$zAustralia 606 $aNewspaper editors$zAustralia$vAnecdotes 615 0$aAustralian newspapers$xHeadlines. 615 0$aNewspaper publishing 615 0$aJournalism 615 0$aNewspaper editors 676 $a079.4 700 $aMitchell$b Chris$f1964-$01808468 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961445503321 996 $aMaking headlines$94358712 997 $aUNINA
