Respected journalist Michael Usher has borne witness to many of the globe’s defining events, from the World Trade Centre to Bondi Beach, and Buckingham Palace to Mt Everest base camp. In addition to anchoring the Bondi coverage, over the past 12 months Usher covered the mushroom murders trial, the Dezi Freeman shooting and war in the Middle East. For the second consecutive year, Usher has been recognised with a TV Week Logie nomination for the Ray Martin Award for Most Popular News Presenter. Seven’s Michael Usher reflects on his remarkable career. The nature of news-telling has changed dramatically since Usher started out, and the 24/7 cycle where anyone with a phone can share content was never more telling than during Bondi.
