Michelle Grattan resigns from The Age
Michelle Grattan at her press conference earlier today.
One of Australia’s leading political reporters Michelle Grattan has resigned from The Age to a position of professorial fellow with the University of Canberra.
In her new role she will continue to operate as a journalist, writing for The Conversation as the website’s associate editor (politics) and chief political correspondent and commenting in radio and television.
A spokesman from the University of Canberra, this morning, confirmed to Mumbrella that Grattan will resign from her role as political editor of The Age to take up the role.
I will miss Michelle’s left-biased angry, baseless rants….
I will miss Michelle’s pro-Coalition diatribes.
If Michelle Grattan wrote with a left wing bias then Tony Abbott is a communist.

Thus spoke Bert.
Well, I guess it depends upon how far to the right one stands as to the view one perceives. I think it was Bob Hope who, commenting at the academy awards, once said “There is the beautiful Elizabeth Taylor just to the left of John Wayne….But then isn’t everyone?”
I shall miss Michelle Grattan and her comments. Was she politically biased? She may have been, but then isn’t everyone?
Man, when Michelle Grattan quits you really know newspapers are dying.
