We’d like to correct a serious error of fact. In a piece published
yesterday, Stephen Feneley made claims about Associate Professor
Catharine Lumby’s experience as a working journalist.

In fact,
Catharine Lumby worked continuously as a journalist in Australia and
the US between 1986 and 2004. In addition to her opinion writing she
has worked extensively in news and feature writing across a wide range
of areas. She has written for TheSydney Morning Herald, The Sunday Age, The Australian, The Independent Monthly and TheBulletin.
