Stan Grant quits as host of Q+A & the ABC

Hamish Macdonald quits ABC
Hamish Macdonald has quit ABC after 18 months with the broadcaster, to pursue a “new opportunity.” Macdonald joined ABC as Q+A host with some fanfare at the top of 2020, and also hosted the Reef Live event, filed for Foreign Correspondent, reported from the 2020 bushfires and regularly presented RN Breakfast on radio. ABC says with lockdowns continuing, Q+A will continue to be hosted where it’s possible to have a studio audience, with a rotation of presenters.
