A regular contributor across Seven’s news programs, he became a familiar presence to viewers seeking context on global conflicts, diplomatic tensions and major international developments.
Colleagues described him as a trusted explainer of world events whose analysis remained grounded in fact rather than rhetoric. Viewers, too, expressed sadness at the news, reflecting on the calm authority he brought to national coverage during periods of international uncertainty.
