The names just keep coming for our list of editors who got their first gig under the age of 40. The new names are as follows:

Martin Beesley: The Daily Telegraph at 33
John Hartigan: Sunday Sun in Brisbane at 34
Ian Meikle: The Advertiser at 34
Chris Mitchell: The Australian at 35
Alan Oakley: The Sunday Telegraph at 35

We’ve now packaged up 20-plus names on the site which can all be viewed together here. At this stage we’re tipping the list will finish with about 30 names but it must be a paper in a capital city to qualify.

We’ve previously asked the question “what happens to former editors?” Check out that particularly Crikey list on the site here and see if you can spot some of the same names.
