Sharri Markson: "The news isn't always comfortable. That was a news photograph, it told the story and the story was in the public interest."
At 34, the indefatigable Markson is the national political editor for The Daily Telegraph. She broke the news that Deputy PM Barnaby Joyce was having a love child with a former staffer, which cost him his job, and explains how the Canberra Press Gallery works. Sharri spent a year editing Cleo magazine, was media editor of The Australian, won a Walkley award at Seven news, convinced a wealthy businessman to let her have her wedding on his private country estate despite his initial refusal. And recounts how she got access to a survivor of the 2005 London Bombing Victim when no one else could or would. And there’s the time the ABC baked her a birthday cake.
