What is Stan Grant doing now?

Famous Australian journalist, Stan Grant has been trending recently after he announced that he will be leaving ABC due to facing severe racial abuse. This comes off after speaking on colonialism and racism during King Charles III Coronation ceremony earlier mid May 2023.

According to him, even though he was invited as a guest on the show, he has been used by the media as the face of criticism thrown to ABC, and the executives of the network have done nothing to help his image publicly.

“Not one ABC executive has publicly refuted the lies written or spoken about me. I don’t hold any individual responsible; this is an institutional failure. I value the friendship of ABC Directors of News, Justin Stevens. He has been a support and a comfort. He is trying to change an organization that has its own legacy of racism. But he knows I am disappointed. I am dispirited,” he explained.

“I was not the producer nor presenter of the coronation broadcast yet every newspaper article accusing the ABC of bias has carried my image. I am writing this because I will not have people depict me as a person of hate,” he shared bitterly.
