Marni Cordell reflects on time editing Crikey, including publication of News Corp blue book
Cordell: ‘My first Crikey sick feeling came in August 2014, on the day we published News Corp’s infamous blue book’
Outgoing Crikey editor Marni Cordell has reflected on her tenure editing the online website, admitting her first “Crikey sick feeling” came on the day Crikey published confidential News Corp financial documents.
In the piece titled How to be Crikey’s editor, Cordell explains the “Crikey sick feeling” was coined by Sophie Black, who edited Crikey from 2009 to 2012, to describe “the dread you feel in the pit of your stomach when you’re about to break a big and potentially damaging story”.
Cordell states her first Crikey sick feeling came in August 2014 “on the day we published News Corp’s infamous blue book“.
