Leigh Hatcher: on the Whitlam dismissal, bushfires, chronic fatigue, and how he discovered the big picture of God’s love

Leigh’s 40-year career in broadcast journalism stretched over more than a generation of breathtaking change in communication. He started as a radio journalist at 2GB in Sydney and worked in the Canberra press gallery for radio, then television between 1975-1976 and 1981-1983. He was Seven Network’s European correspondent and Chief Olympic correspondent, reporting on the Atlanta and Sydney Olympic Games.

For 13 years he was one of the senior presenters at Sky news, through the emergence of what became known as the 24-hour news cycle.

His conversation with Tim Argall begins on the steps of Parliament House, Canberra.
