Sky News Digital Editor Jack Houghton has criticised National Press Club moderator David Crowe for “unashamedly” barracking for key ‘Yes’ campaign principles during Noel Pearson’s address on Wednesday. Mr Houghton accused the Nine Network journalist of letting the prominent ‘Yes’ campaigner “off the hook” without almost any scrutiny. “It is disgraceful stuff by Nine Papers’ chief political correspondent, taking a clear position in a debate which is for Australians to have,” Mr Houghton said. “It speaks volumes about the issues we have with a press club which appears to have lost all connection with what the average Australian expects. “These wildly biased journalists give their mates a soft run and come at adversaries with a sledgehammer.”
