Laura Margaret Tingle, an Australian journalist and writer, was born on February 14, 1961, in Sydney, Australia. Prior to becoming the main political correspondent for the 7.30 current events television show on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, she was the political editor of the Australian Financial Review.
Tingle began her career as a cadet journalist in Sydney early in the 1980s, covering currency floating and financial deregulation for Fairfax Media’s Australian Financial Review and Business Review Weekly. In 1987, she started working as an economics correspondent for The Australian, a News Limited publication. She was appointed chief political correspondent in 1992 and national affairs correspondent in 1994.
In 1996, she rejoined Fairfax as a political correspondent for The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald. She left The Age’s Canberra bureau in 1998, frustrated by constant meddling and a lack of reaction to her demands, and joined the Sydney Morning Herald.
Due to the merger of The Age and Herald Canberra bureaus, personnel layoffs, and a shift to lighter issues, she left from the Sydney Morning Herald in 2002 and returned to the Australian Financial Review as a political correspondent. In 2003, she was named chief political correspondent and Canberra bureau head, and in 2008, she was designated political editor.
