A 1980s historical drama which includes Michelle Grattan and Barrie Cassidy is a pretty good summary of what's wrong with Australian journalism, where people who were reaching the peaks of their careers 35 years ago are still hanging around like bad smells today.

An industry this small can't undergo generational refresh unless the people at the top move on, and I feel like I've been hearing the same names and same opinions for my entire adult life. There is probably a vast population of up-and-comers better than Grattan and Cassidy who we've never heard of because they were in the way.
