  • Former QT chief photographer Rob Williams recalls the shock of mass redundancies five years ago

    Five years ago the presses rolled for the last time on the print edition of the Queensland Times. Popular chief photographer and former postman Rob Williams was one of many made redundant across more than 100 News Corp mastheads. Rob joins the show to reflect on the forced changes to his career and reveals what shaped his interest in photography at an early age. Content note: One instance of coarse language.
