Hugh Marks vs Fairfax: It’s great content
A lot can change in a week. Just ask the managing editor of The Australian Financial Review, Joanne Gray, who moderated a Think TV dinner panel this week featuring her “new boss” Nine CEO Hugh Marks.
Marks, keen as he was to talk about television, its effectiveness and the great work of Think TV, could not escape Gray’s questioning on the proposed merger – no matter how many times he tried instead to focus on “great content”.
Much to Dr Mumbo’s delight, Gray introduced Marks as “my new boss”, before Seven CEO Tim Worner heckled that Nine had gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure the interviewer on the night was employed by the network.

Hugh probably thinks the Fin Review is a game show. Having said that, I can see Joe Aston imitating Eddie Everywhere. But Stutch is no Barry Jones.
