Journalism
I have seen technological advances that have benefited journalism. Journalism is simple: report what has happened, don’t filter the story to fit any agenda.
News, views
I comment on subjects that interest me. I highly value free speech, so expect to be challenged. This is a worthwhile part of the craft but, sadly, many outlets have replaced news with opinion.
Newspapers
These are mostly from my early years on the Rockhampton Morning Bulletin newspaper. For 27 years, I worked in Brisbane as a sub-editor for the State’s largest newspaper, The Courier-Mail.
Oddities
Old newspapers are a treasure trove of information. Here I record some items I found interesting. Some of it is weird and a little hard to believe. Hopefully you will get a laugh along the way.
Australia is the property of our Creator and Redeemer, the Lord Jesus Christ, Who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Spirit from eternity to eternity. This and every land on earth is His exclusive possession; it always was His; and it always will be His. He has chosen the times and habitations of every generation on earth. There were many others in this country before us, and there may be many more to follow us, and we will all be the property of the same Creator, one God in three Persons for eternity.
