Media careerAfter the defeat of the Howard Government, Kenny worked as a columnist for The Advertiser, as a television reporter for the Adelaide edition of A Current Affair, and as a talkback radio host for 5AA. In January 2009 Kenny was recruited as chief of staff to then-Opposition Leader Malcolm Turnbull. Kenny was Turnbull's chief of staff during the Utegate scandal, resigning when Turnbull subsequently lost the Liberal leadership. After leaving Turnbull's office, Kenny wrote opinion pieces and analysis for The Australian, ABC The Drum and SkyNews. In 2010 Kenny was appointed General Manager, External Affairs, for transport giant Asciano, but left at the end of the year to return to media work.[2] Kenny has a weekly column in The Weekend Australian and Adelaide's Sunday Mail. Kenny has appeared on ABC TV programs such as Insiders and Q&A alongside politicians and community figures. He has been a vocal critic of ABC expansionism and alleged bias.[3] Kenny also argued from July 2011 that Julia Gillard could not recover as prime minister, that Labor would lose and that Kevin Rudd could limit the extent of those losses. He clashed on television with former Labor leader Mark Latham over this analysis but was proven correct when Labor did return to Rudd and still lost the election.[4] Since 2013, Kenny has hosted Viewpoint and Friday Live on Sky News Australia, which are both opinion programs. Friday Live finished on 12 December 2014, replaced by a second weekly edition of Viewpoint.[5] Prior to these formats, Kenny hosted Saturday Agenda.[6] In September 2013, the ABC program The Hamster Decides broadcast a photoshopped image of Kenny having sex with a dog. At the end of 2013, Kenny launched defamation action against the ABC program involved and one of its hosts, Andrew Hansen. In April 2014, the managing director of the ABC apologised to Kenny for the incident, and expressed regret for "the delay in making this apology".[7] Following the 2014 Sydney hostage crisis Kenny criticised[8] the #illridewithyou campaign and the refusal of many to accept the Islamist motivation of the siege. Kenny had been at the Lindt Chocolat Café, the scene of the hostage crisis, only minutes before it unfolded.[9] Personal lifeHe is a keen Australian rules football follower, having played at Reserve Grade level for SANFL clubs Norwood and West Adelaide. In 2014 he was appointed an official ambassador of the Adelaide Crows AFL club.[10] Kenny is the cousin of political journalist Mark Kenny.[11] Published works
