He help destroy John Hewson's tilt at Prime Ministership. Plus he famously came on air pissed, triggering much mirth from his rival Derryn Hinch.
By any measure an Aussie journalism titan.
He was also a pretty serious horse owner I think.
However, he was most famous for having the world's largest philtrum.

RIP Katherine Helmond
"Actress Katherine Helmond, best known for her work in "Who's the Boss?" and "Soap," has died due to complications from Alzheimer’s disease, her rep Jeff Witjas told USA TODAY Friday. She was 89."
----------------------------------------------------------------
I also remember her as Ray's mother-in-law on Everybody Loves Raymond. Funny lady with a dead pan delivery.

RIP Les Carlyon
Edited both Melbourne morning dailys, wrote numerous books about sport and military history. Following less than a week after Mike Willesee; a bad period for Australian journalism legends.
His brother Norman is a former Victorian wicketkeeper.
