The future of film criticism in Australia is under a cloud, with the number of full-time salaried critics in the country down to a handful — by some estimates, just two people — in the face of a perfect storm of technological disruption, cratering freelance rates and arts funding cuts.
Coverage of the arts, already a marginal element of the news media, is particularly sensitive to the commercial pressures affecting journalism as a whole.
The last two salaried, fulltime film reviewers standing are believed to be Jason Di Rosso at the ABC and Leigh Paatsch at the Herald Sun, whose writing is syndicated across the News Ltd network.
Local magazine-turned-website FilmInk employs three critics, although they combine the role with other editorial or publishing tasks.
The rest of Australia.s film reviewing comes from a patchwork of freelancers and contributors, who are sometimes paid very little or asked to work for free.
