‘Many egos clashing’: Daily Tele’s Ben English on putting the Power 100 together

December is a big month for the editor of News Corp Australia’s The Daily Telegraph, Ben English.

He is about to see the fruition of the network-wide Let Them Be Kids campaign, with the under-16 social media restrictions coming into force next week.

English has been overseeing the recent Back Australia campaign which has been running across the group.

The editor and his team have also just released the 2025 edition of the Daily Telegraph Power 100 list — their annual ranking of Sydney and NSW’s elite — published fittingly the day prior to many of the subjects gathering for News Corp executive chairman Lachlan Murdoch’s annual Christmas party.
