From One Macdonald To Another: The Changes Afoot At ABC Radio

After close to two months of speculation, Hamish Macdonald, the former Q+A host and current Radio National and The Project presenter has been confirmed as the new Mornings host on ABC Radio Sydney. Macdonald replaces Sarah Macdonald, who announced on air only days after being told that her contract would not be renewed, prompting public outcry from her very loyal listenership. It comes amidst concerns from the ABC audience, that its local radio stations are at risk of being commercialized by its new management. Joining Tina Quinn to discuss is Jenna Price, Columnist at the Sydney Morning Herald, and Daanyal Saeed, Media Reporter at Crikey. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
