ABC News Victoria anchor Ian Henderson to retire after four decades
ABC News Victoria’s anchor, Ian Henderson, is retiring after nearly 40 years.
Henderson first joined ABC News in Melbourne in 1980, after two years as a cadet with Leader Newspapers.
During his time with the national broadcaster, Henderson worked for four years as ABC Europe correspondent and as a state political and industrial reporter. Henderson assumed the weeknightly Victoria newsreader role in 1992.
Will be sad to see Ian leave but wish him a very Happy Retirement. Wish Tamara Odyen would retire, she is such a Drama Queen such an annoying presenter. Hope she doesn’t replace Ian who is very professional.
Hendo,
Spent some time with you for many a surf at Fairhaven and surrounds.
Very heady days with some colourful surfing characters in the 70s/80/s …
Then later bumped into you in a hospital one random night when your child was sick and my father was passing …
So, I am your age now …
I would like you to consider that we grew up in the most marvellous place and period in the planets history.
Our Australian generation grew up in the best part, of the best country, in the world!
Without war, with full employment and without the all the social confusion that now exists.
Yet all the crazy creative people we spent time with the. were not racist, sexist or homophobic?
We were too busy having a bloody good time!
Enjoy your well deserved retirement bud!
