Summary
John Norton was one of Australia's earliest and most colourful, if not likeable, press barons. He was an eccentric with a power complex who controlled a chain of newspapers which extended across Australia and New Zealand. Of strong republican views, his lust for power saw him elected to the New South Wales Parliament three times.
