Revision as of 14:52, 13 November 2009
Michael Duffy is an Australian radio presenter and newspaper columnist. He presents the Counterpoint program on ABC Radio National. He was originally hired in an attempt by Radio National management to find, in the words of Australian Prime Minister John Howard, a "right-wing Phillip Adams".[1]
Duffy is the author of Man of Honour, a biography of John Macarthur, and Latham and Abbott, which traced the lives and rivalry of politicians Mark Latham and Tony Abbott. He edited the Independent Monthly (1993-96) and then, with his wife Alex Snellgrove, set up his own company, Duffy & Snellgrove, to publish mainly serious non-fiction books. This ceased publishing new works in 2005.
After graduating from Macquarie University in 1978 (BA, English), Duffy worked as a manual labourer and played in punk rock bands in Australia and in the United Kingdom. He then worked in the public service for six years, in the Department of Social Security and the NSW Premier's Department. He has been a delegate in two trade unions.
He currently writes opinion columns for the Sydney Morning Herald.[2] He also writes for the Daily Telegraph.
