David Farrier
Gain an insight into David's life as an entertainment/pop-culture/odd journalist who's worked primarily in the TV3 newsroom, but also across radio, print and online. He'll chat about his early days in the newsroom as a wide-eyed intern, to his life as a sort of roaming "is that really news?" guy. Is journalism all it's cracked up to be? What are the challenges facing a TV newsroom in 2012? What happens when you think the camera's recording and it isn't? Is interviewing Leonardo DiCaprio and Jessica Alba all it's cracked up to be? Why do some people like me and some hate me? Why do I yell my sign-off? Who has the nicest smell - John Campbell or Mark Sainsbury? Through the power of speech and powerpoint he will hopefully answer some of these questions, and maybe some more too.
