In 1983 David Johnston was a newsreader with Channel 10 Eyewitness News. On February 16 he visited the Cockatoo fires and the following day he arrived in Aireys Inlet by helicopter. He reported on the destruction and compared it to the aftermath of a nuclear war.
David’s decades of experience as a journalist and newsreader have given him a unique perspective on major disaster events and the process of communicating them to the public.
