@gpaddymanning Very sorry for the loss of Peter, Paddy. He was an exceptional person - my first big ABC boss, became a mentor and helped me with advice at a few difficult moments. To the whole family, condolences for one of the great ones.

@Kate_McClymont Peter Manning was a visionary, a storyteller, a talent spotter and a lovely, generous person. He was my first big boss at the ABC and became a mentor and friend. Vale, Peter.

“I figured if I get on the air, and people see just how helpful it's gonna be, I'll be able to raise the money later on. And I was able to do just exactly that.” I talked to Ted Turner about the white-knuckle early days of CNN. This titan of industry and philanthropy will be greatly missed.

I’ll very much miss your calls @TimGavel .. as an avid @RaidersNRL fan, I’ve listened more than most and appreciated you bringing every game to life with colour and energy. Hope the Green Machine brings your chapter to a close with that elusive premiership.

Earlier this week I informed the ABC that this year would be my last as a commentator. I retired from ABC Sport as a f/t employee in 2018 and have called as a contractor since then. 36 seasons is enough. V grateful for the opportunity.

I’m tuned in for @heatherewart1’s #Backroads swan song. What an incredible broadcast legacy .. Heather badgered and begged the ABC to create a show that lived in her imagination that’s now told incredible stories of regional Australia for 10 years. Job done Heath, well played.

Peter’s last post, just a month ago. The journalism titan, family man and friend passed away on Friday. Vale to an outstanding person, who happens to also be a great and dedicated storyteller and an always curious traveller.

[Peter Ryan OAM @Peter_F_Ryan]

For those who missed the news. Fair to say I’ve been feeling the love from colleagues, friends, family and most of all the audience https://t.co/GmwHH1MG84

[Gaven Morris @gavmorris]

@heatherewart1 An all-time legend of Australian journalism, an ABC pioneer and an exceptional human. Take a bow, Heth.

Very sad and shocked at the passing of the wonderful Judith Whelan .. a colleague and a friend through so many ABC adventures. So much life and light .. and amid absurdity and adversity, a wicked laugh to lift spirits. Always curious. My thoughts with Judith’s family. Vale.

Really great to speak with you @MohamudNadif and the group of inspiring journalists doing great work in #Somalia. Thanks to @NUSOJofficial @AusHCKenya @PhoebeSaintilan and @missingperspec for making it possible.

[Mohamud Nadif @MohamudNadif]

Today in Mogadishu, I participated in an advanced training for young journalists in Somalia to learn Investigative Journalism.

This training was conducted by
@NUSOJofficial which collaboration withe @AusHCKenya.

Devastated for my friends and colleagues at #Newshub - you do incredible work and NZ’s democracy and society will be seriously poorer for your absence. Few teams have thought more about and fought harder for their #journalism future. https://t.co/8LPaYLk50S

[Australian High Commission, Kenya @AusHCKenya]

With 🇦🇺support, @NUSOJofficial is hosting an investigative journalism workshop in #Mogadishu 🇸🇴

You will learn from experienced mentors @gavmorris, Yusuf Hussain Isaq, @WATSEMBAMIRIAM & @PhoebeSaintilan.

In partnership with @missingperspec.

That’s what we all needed, even as Australia lost - a moment for all time. Windies haven’t won a test match here since 1997 .. Australia always win at the Gabba. Up steps an injured #shamarjoseph

[Wisden @WisdenCricket]

This time last year, Shamar Joseph had never played a professional game.

Yesterday, he retired hurt with an injured toe from a Mitchell Starc yorker.

Today, he took seven wickets to take West Indies to one of their most famous ever victories.

An incredible story.

How great is @kt_calderwood? @abcnews new East Asia correspondent excelling with much warranted 7.30 coverage from Japan on the #earthquake and on the news from Taiwan. Bravo legend!

[Gaven Morris @gavmorris]

Outstanding contribution @TimJAyliffe .. a genuine creator and innovator. There are new and amazing chapters to write (for you, literally) in the rich life outside.

[Tim Ayliffe @TimJAyliffe]

After 17 years, I’m leaving ABC News. I’m grateful for having worked with so many wonderful people & I’m proud of the 1000s of hours of TV we’ve made. It’s time for fresh challenges… more novels to write, a TV series in the works, and most importantly - more time with my family
