From the B&T team

B&T has been reporting on all things advertising, media and marketing since 1950. Our commitment to journalism moves well beyond the usual daily news cycles with in-depth premium content, visual nourishment, insightful opinion, and the guarantee of genuine thought-provoking exclusive content.

David Hovenden

Editor-in-Chief, B&T and CEO, The Misfits Media

David is a longtime publisher, ex-creative agency consultant and B&T aficionado.

He has worked in media for so many years that he’s now embarrassed to reveal the exact number. Starting off life as a journalist he’s written about everything from his passion for angling through to the latest developments in pumps, pipes and valves for the illustrious Factory Equipment News.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. A boredom with government consulting saw him become a co-owner of the Misfits Media Company in 2014. That combined with a house in Sydney Eastern Suburbs and two kids at private school means that a passion for what he does is not an option it’s a necessity. In the few hours he’s not working or acting as a taxi service for the aforementioned kids, David likes nothing better than fishing in his beloved kayak and sharpening his collection of filleting knives.

John has been a journalist for over 20 years, a career interspersed with other failed careers including law, a stint as a chef and as a failed photographer.

A specialist in men’s titles, John launched and edited FHM Australia, Zoo Weekly and was a founding editor of Men’s Health magazine – although has never once seen his abdominal muscles.

His biggest interviews include Mick Jagger, Michael Schumacher, Rolf Harris and his all-time hero, lead singer of the British guitar band Suede, Brett Anderson; all of which confirmed his professional belief that you should never interview your heroes.

John’s hobbies include wine, drinking wine, collecting wine and visiting wineries. He’s also an avid history buff, particularly the really violent parts like World War II, the Crusades or the Inquisition.

When not outrageously cheating on a golf course, John can be found slumped on the couch watching sport or yelling at his two children to eat their vegetables.

Ally Burnie

Reporter, B&T

Ally Burnie is a journalist, presenter and podcast host at B&T. She writes about all things TV (read: Karl Stefanovic), radio, out-of-home and publishing. She’s interviewed plenty of big agency bosses, but her favourite person she’s had the pleasure of interviewing is Dave Hughes. On her wish list: Hamish Blake. She’d also take Andy Lee, if she had to. In her spare time, Ally is learning how to make a decent dinner that does not involve eggs on toast.

A technology journalist and one-time Consensus IT Writers Award winner, Edward covers all things ad tech, mar tech, digital platforms and basically anything else the other journalists don’t want to cover. He recently celebrated his one-year anniversary with B&T and has grown quite fond of the whirlwind media industry. When not filing stories, Edward can be found perusing Sydney cafes in search of the perfect almond flat white.
