Angelos Frangopoulos, CEO and managing editor, Australian News Channel
In one of the longest negotiations ever in the media, Frangopoulos finally saw the sale of Sky News and Sky News Business to News Corp after Seven, Nine and Sky UK finally agreed on terms.

Sky News highlights this year included a Walkley for its election coverage, the arrival of Andrew Bolt in a daily one-hour program and the addition of breakfast TV host to Paul Murray’s list of skills.
